A Commentary on The King of Aspiration Prayers 

Radiant with the spirit of boundless compassion, The King of Aspirations is a powerful expression of the bodhisattva’s path, first voiced by the great bodhisattva Samantabhadra at the conclusion of the magnificent Avatamsaka Sutra.

Treasured as one of the Five Royal Sutras, this heartfelt prayer has become one of the most widely practised texts in Tibetan and East Asian Buddhism—and its inspiring message is now increasingly embraced in the West.

Lama Jampa will present this timeless teaching through the elegant commentary of the 19th-century master Drakpa Gyaltsen, a devoted student of the great Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo, offering us a precious opportunity to connect with the profound aspirations of the bodhisattva heart.
