If you open your mind with the power of peace and joy, you will attain freedom from limitations. So, like a child calling to parents for love, care, and help, pray to the Buddha of unconditional love for yourself and for all. The main focus of this prayer is not to worship an external image or power for support; the purpose rather is to open your own positive mental views and feelings. This blossoming of positive emotional energies, through the power and skills of your own mind, opens to and invites all phenomena as a source of peace, joy, and blessing.
