"Embracing Joy: The Art of Non-Attachment"

prayer(1490)


In the sacred light of dawn, we gather our hearts and minds, embracing the wisdom of the Dhammapada, Chapter 15, Verse 200, "Happy indeed we live, we who possess nothing. Feeders on joy we shall be, like the Radiant Gods."

In the quietude of the morning, let us pray:

O Blessed One, teach us the path of non-attachment,
Guiding us to live happily, possessing nothing but peace.
As the sun rises, so does our consciousness,
Unfolding like a lotus, embracing the purity of emptiness.

Just as the Radiant Gods feed on joy,
May we nourish our souls with the bliss of presence.
In every breath, in every heartbeat,
May we find the simple joy of being.

As the day unfolds, let us cultivate mindfulness,
In our thoughts, our words, our actions,
May we embody compassion, radiating loving-kindness,
To all beings, in all directions, without exception.

In the silence of our hearts, let us remember,
The truth of impermanence, the essence of equanimity.
May we walk lightly upon this earth,
Leaving footprints of love and understanding.

In the wisdom of the Buddha, the Dhamma, and the Sangha,
We find refuge, we find light.
May we realize the truth of non-self,
And live in harmony with the rhythm of life.

As we end this prayer, let us carry forth this mantra,
"Happy indeed we live, possessing nothing, feeding on joy."
May it echo in our hearts, guiding us through the day,
In every moment, in every breath, may we be mindful.

So, let us repeat throughout the day:

"Happy we live, possessing nothing, feeding on joy."
