C. The dedication of merit

Now the merit is dedicated for the benefit of sentient beings:

As the great bliss is famed as the highest of qualities, May all beings be absorbed in excellent conduct. Worn out by reliance on bad objects that corrupt, May our minds today find ease from their weariness.

By the thunder resounding in the heaped clouds of merit of these auspiciously composed verses, and by the excellent flashing display of the lightning-garland of their meaning, may sentient beings, who long have relied on inferior objects, with the steeds of their minds worn out by many thousands of kinds of samsaric suffering, have their weariness eased by the Buddha Bhagavat’s supreme happiness.

Pacified through the Dharma rain of holy amrita,
May goodness in the minds of beings have great increase.
May the wish-fulfilling clouds of the level of Victory,
Always touch us with excellent, liberating wisdom.

On whomever, in the ten directions of the world,
There falls the Dharma rain of the Sugatas and their sons,
By the occurance of benefits may they be illumined.
With the three lower realms self-emptied, may all become enlightened.

For blind ones wandering in the world without a guide,
May the virtues of the three jewels be fully and clearly proclaimed.
When they are fully established on the path of liberation,
May every single one attain enlightenment.
