An Uchen (Tibetan) Script from the "Heart Sutra" |
Gaťe Gaťe Para Gaťe Parasam Gaťe Bodhi Svaha
or,
or,
Gone, Gone, Gone to the Other Shore, attained the Other Shore
having
never left, So Be It
Among many translations of this concluding line from the Prajñāpāramita Hridaya Mantra, for one rendition that I especially esteem, my thanks to
Pema Chödrön:
Pema Chödrön:
Transcending, Ever Transcending, Transcending even Transcending, Transcending even Transcending of Transcending, Suchness, So Be It
The Mantra is offered today in mindful reflection on the passing of my Aunt Dorothy, in compassion for all those of her loved ones mourning her death, and for the benefit of All of Being.
May Light, Hope & Love increase for all who read this, and may any merit for this offering be transferred to the Liberation of All. So Be it.
