Tan Huu Nguyen

Buddhist Prayer O Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, abiding in all directions, endowed with great compassion, endowed with fore- knowledge, endowed with the divine eye, endowed with love, affording protection to sentient beings, consent through the power of your great compassion to come forth. Consent to accept these offerings concretely laid out and mentally created. O Compassionate Ones, you who possess the wisdom of understanding, the love of compassion, the power of divine deeds and of protecting in incomprehensible measure. Tan Huu Nguyen is passing from this world to the next. He is taking a great leap. The light of this world has faded for him. He has entered solitude with his karmic forces. He has gone into a vast Silence. He is borne away by the Great Ocean of birth and death. O Compassionate Ones, protect Tan Huu Nguyen, who is defenseless. Be to him like a father and a mother. O Compassionate Ones, let not the force of your compassion be weak, but aid him. Forget not your ancient vows.
