The Verses of Prayer to the Eight Noble Auspicious Ones

The following translation of this prayer is from the Nam Cho Daily Practice from Palyul Ling International:

OM To all who dwell in natural, spontaneously present, perfectly pure phenomenal existence,
To all who dwell in the auspicious realms of the ten direcitons,
To the Buddhas, Dharma and assemblies of Noble Sangha,
I prostrate and pray that all may be auspicious for myself and others.
To Drönmè Gyalpo, Tsalten Dondrup Gong,
Jampè Gyenpal, Gedrak Paldampa,
Kunla Gongpa, Gyacher Drakpa-Chen,
Lynpo Tar Pak, and Tsal Drak Pal,
Noble Ones, known for your consideration of all sentient beings,
Noble Ones, known for your superior display of enlightened activities that grant mental satisfaction,
Merely hearing your names increases all glory and auspiciousness.
I prostrate to the eight Sugatas,
The youthful Manjushri, the glorious Vajrapani,
The powerful Avalokiteshvara, the noble protector Maitreya,
Sayi Nyingpo, Dribpa Namparsel,
Namkhè Nyingpo, the supreme Noble Samantabhadra,
Utpala flower, vajra, white lotus, naga tree,
Wish-fulfilling jewel, moon, sword, and sun,
Holders of the excellent hand emblems of supreme noble good fortune,
I prostrate to the eight Bodhisattvas,
The supreme jeweled umbrella, the auspicious golden fishes,
The wish-fulfilling vase, the exquisite kamala flower,
The conch of fame and glory, the fully endowed endless knot,
The eternal victory banner, the all-powerful wheel,
You who hold these eight supreme precious signs,
Offered to the Conquerers of all directions and times,
Attractive maidens of pleasure, to recall your nature increases all that is noble,
I prostrate to the eight goddesses of good fortune.
Maha Brama, Maheswara, Visnu,
Thousand-eyed Indra, and guardian king Dhritarastra,
Virudhaka, Virupaksa and
Vaishravana, the holders of celestial articles,
Wheel, trident, short spear, vajra,
Vina, sword, stupa and victory banner,
Who make auspiciousness and positivity grow in the three realms,
I prostrate to the eight guardians of the world.
Through the activity that myself and others are about to begin,
By pacifying all obstructions and harms,
May the glory and endowments increase and all wishes be accomplished!
May good fortune, happiness and prosperity be fully endowed!
