Sever the six senses,

city of my outer self-grasping

Sever the five poisons, the afflictions,

my inner self-grasping

Sever the unknowing that obscures,

my secret self-grasping.

May I complete the practice of

these three severings.

The splendid Gyurme Thubten Gyatso spoke

these words of prayer at the Rege Stronghold.

May they bring goodness and good fortune.
