Dependent Arising:
A Praise of the Buddha
by Lama Tsongkhapa
Seeing and speaking of dependent arising,
He was wisdom supreme, teacher supreme.
I bow to him who knew and taught
the all-conquering dependent arising.
Of the suffering existing in the world,
its root is none other than ignorance.
The understanding to kill this root
you said is none other than dependent arising.
How could those of intelligence not see dependent arising as the heart of your doctrine.
Where is greater praise of you, therefore,
than in praise of dependent arising?
Je Tsongkhapa, The Spledour of an Autumn Moon, The Devotional verse of Tsongkhapa

Ven. Thubten Chodron håller Vesak tal 2013.
"On Vesak Day, as we celebrate the Buddha's birth, awakening, and parinirvana, we rejoice in our own potential to become fully awakened too.
All merit accumulated on this special day is multiplied 100 million times."
Ven. Thubten Chodron.
