Liberation

Lokah Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu

OM Shanti, Shanti, Shanti

May all beings everywhere

Be happy and free

And may the thoughts, words, and actions

In my own life

Contribute in some way

To that happiness

And to that freedom

For all.

OM Peace, Peace, Peace

As long as space endures

As long as sentient beings remain

May I too abide

And dispel the miseries of the world

~Shantideva

Until my last breath,

I will practice compassion.

~H. H. the 14th Dalai Lama
