Prayer to Sakya Pandita
Prayer to Sakya Pandita — This four-line prayer to Manjushri, which appears at the beginning of Sakya Pandita’s Treasury of Valid Reasoning (Wyl. Tshad ma rigs gter) was later adopted as a prayer to Sakya Paṇḍita himself:
shé ja tamché zikpé chen yang shing
You who have the eye of wisdom that sees all that is knowable,
dro kun gelek drubpé tukjé chen
The compassion that brings about the welfare of all beings,
samyé trinlé dzepé top nga wa
The strength that accomplishes inconceivable enlightened action,
jamgön lamé shyap la solwa dep
Lama, you who are Manjushri in person, at your feet I pray!
