    Sutra from yesterday's gathering at Wat Buddhadhamma, Regina PDF Print E-mail
    Written by Bikkhu (Teacher) Sandawara   
    Thursday, 25 October 2007

    In Sept. 2007, during the peaceful protest for democracy and human rights in Burma, about 600 people including Buddhist monks were dead and about 2400 Buddhist monks and 3800 civilians including students were arrested and put in jail by the Burmese military government. Some leaders who participated in the last peaceful protest for democracy in Burma but escaped from the arrest are being followed to be captured and arrested by the military government.

    In order to radiate our loving-kindness over the democracy-loving peoples of Burma, let us recite the following stanzas.

    May all the Buddhist monks and civilians who have boldly given their lives in the peaceful protest for democracy and human rights in Burma, reach to a good realm!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    May beings in Burma be well and happy!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    May all beings far and near be well and happy!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    May all beings fearful and fearless be well and happy!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    May all beings short and tall be well and happy!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    May all beings be free from cheating each other!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    May all beings be free from jealously on one another!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    May all beings be free from wanting one another poor!

    May they be free from danger, anxiety, worry and suffering!

    May they live peacefully!

     

    Anyone wishing to discuss the situation in Burma or Buddhism is welcome to visit Wat Buddhadhamma.
