A blessing: the arising of Awakened Ones.
A blessing: the teaching of true Dhamma.
A blessing: the concord of the Sangha.
The austerity of those in concord
is a blessing.
-Dhammapada, 14, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkh
Blessed are we by the Buddhas
past, present and future.
Blessed are we by the teachings
of the Dharma true.
Blessed are we by the guidance
of the Sangha,
be they monk, nun or layperson.
With their aid
may all of us be blessed
to go to the Pure Land after death,
and return to this Saha world
to help spiritually awaken all sentient beings.
