Ep. 1 | Tibetan | "On Entering the City of Vaiśālī" recited by Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche by 84000 published on 2020-04-26T10:14:28Z The Mahāsūtra “On Entering the City of Vaiśālī” ཡངས་པའི་གྲོང་ཁྱེར་དུ་འཇུག་པའི་མདོ་ཆེན་པོ། Vaiśālīpraveśamahāsūtra Toh 312 Invited to visit the city of Vaiśālī, which has been ravaged by a terrible epidemic, the Buddha instructs Ānanda to stand at the city’s gate and recite a proclamation, a long mantra, and some verses that powerfully evoke spiritual well-being. Ānanda does so, and the epidemic comes to an end. One of the mahāsūtras related to the literature of the Vinaya, this text, like other accounts of the incident, has traditionally been recited during times of personal or collective illness, bereavement, and other difficulties. We are humbled to share here both a recitation in Tibetan by our Founding Chair, Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche, as well as a recitation in English (https://soundcloud.com/translate84000/toh-312-entering-the-great-city-of-vaishali-recited-by-gary-dyson) to help those unsure of where or how to begin. So open the text in our Reading Room (https://read.84000.co), and recite along! https://read.84000.co/translation/toh312.html Genre Religion & Spirituality Comment by hay stack o% ^°•√€✓§∆ 2023-11-04T14:44:17Z Comment by Ugyen Dema 🙏🙏🙏 2022-10-07T17:37:35Z Comment by Billion Universe thanks for upload 🙏 2020-05-20T18:47:49Z
