Kshitigarbha Mantras to Pacify Natural Disasters

"Light of the Path Participants Recite Kshitigarbha Mantras to Pacify Natural Disasters The retreatants at the Light of the Path 2017 retreat spent a practice session reciting Kshitigarbha mantras on Tuesday, September 5. Participants did 2,000 recitations of the long Kshitigarbha mantra and 10,000 recitations of the middle-length Kshitigarbha mantra at Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s request. On Wednesday, September 6, they did 13,000 recitations of the middle-length mantra. The practice was dedicated to pacify the harm caused by natural disasters, especially from upcoming hurricanes. Students concerned about Hurricane Irma, which as of Thursday afternoon is a category 5 hurricane tearing through the Caribbean towards Florida, can recite the middle-length Kshitigarbha mantra: OM SUMBHA NI SUMBHA / HARA TSARA / MAHAA PAASHA MARAUTAA / AMOGHA VAJRASATTVA SWAAHAA In the past, Rinpoche has also advised to do Kshitigarbha practice and protector prayers to pacify harm from hurricanes. You can find more advice from Rinpoche on natural disasters on FPMT’s Advice from Lama Zopa Rinpoche page.
