BOWING TO THE PATRIACHS


with each bow, recite the following repentance verse in silence:
THE WORSHIPPED AND THE WORSHIPPER ARE IN NATURE EMPTY AND STILL.
THE INTERCHANGE IN THE PATH BETWEEN THE INFLUENCES
AND RESPONSES IS DIFFICULT TO CONCEIVE OF.
THIS WAY - PLACE OF MINE IIS LIKE A WISH-FULFILLING PEARL.
THE (name of patriach) MANIFESTS WITHIN IT.
MY FORM MANIFESTS BEFORE (name of patriach). SEEKING TO ERADICATE OBSTACLES,
I BOW IN WORSHIP.

the leader says:

I BOW IN WORSHIP TO THE VENERABLE ONE, THE NOBLE HSU,
PRECEPTOR YUN, LORD HIGH MASTER OF TRUE SUCHNESS MONASTERY.
(3 times)

I BOW IN WORSHIP TO THE VENERABLE ONE, THE REVEREND CHANG,
NOBLE JR, LORD HIGH MASTER OF THREE CONDITIONS MONASTERY.
(3 times)

I BOW IN WORSHIP TO THE VENERABLE ONE, THE REVEREND CHANG,
NOBLE REN, LORD HIGH MASTER OF THREE CONDITIONS MONASTERY.
(3 times)

I BOW IN WORSHIP TO THE HOLY ONES, ALL PATRIACHS OF THE EAST AND WEST,
ALL SAGES OF THE DHARMA REALM.
(3 times)
