The fragrance of this incense

Invites the awakened mind

To be truly present with us now.

 

The fragrance of this incense

Fills our practice center,

Protects and guards our mind 

From all wrong thinking.

 

The fragrance of this incense

Collects us and unites us. 

Precepts, concentration, insight, 

We offer for all that is.

Namo Bodhisattvehbyah. 

Namo Mahasattvebhyah.
