Supplication to Vajrasattva
Yutang Lin
Sins and evils fulfilled the world
Personal karma and grasping entangle
Sufferings of sentient beings are incessant
Although enlightenment path encountered
Solid practice in renunciation could hardly be realized
Buddha's offspring stagnated in deep mire
Great mercy, great compassion, and great power
Contrivances of fruitful position so wondrous
Nectars will wash away all worldly stains
Vajrasattva, master of receiving repentance
Through harmonious union of Wisdom and Compassion
Nourish Buddha's offspring back to original purity
As requested by disciple Wu, Wei Jian
