Abstract
Nadezhda says that she heard this prayer from one old woman in her 90s who learnt it from her uncle. This prayer is read to cleanse one’s house. The prayer mentions various Buddhas and bodhisattvas. Each quatrain in the prayer ends with the mantra of the compassionate and merciful bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara.
