I dedicate them all to Enlightenment.
Requesting The Four Activities
1.
JHO! The four various actions are mind itself, they do not exist apart from mind and mind does not exist. Ultimately, there are no distinctions and neither do colour and form exist. They are miraculously shown as mere illusions by the Glorious Goddess of Peace, in accordance with our disposition. Principal Lady amidst an assembly of pacifiers, distinguished by a very brilliant white body, you have pacified, will pacify and are in a pacifying mood. I prostrate to the Mother who always pacifies. Please pacify my illnesses, evil spirits and interferences.
2.

5.
JHO! Although your nature, appearing with such varied characteristics, has no concrete existence, you still benefit migrators with your four actions.
