zhabs rim (prayers and mantras)

ཐུབ་པ་སངས་རྒྱས་བཅོམ་ལྡན་འདས་ཀྱི་མཚན་སྔགས།

གང་གི་ཐུགས་བརྩེ་ཉེར་བཟུང་ནས། །ལྟ་བ་ཐམས་ཅད་སྤང་པའི་ཕྱིར། །དམ་པའི་ཆོས་ནི་སྟོན་མཛད་པ། །གོ་ཏམ་དེ་ལ་ཕྱག་འཚལ་ལོ། ། ཨོཾ་མུ་ནི་མུ་ནི་མཧཱ་མུ་ནི་ཡེ་སྭ་ཧཱ།

དགེ་བ་འདི་ཡིས་མྱུར་དུ་བདག་། སྟོན་པ་སངས་རྒྱས་འགྲུབ་གྱུར་ནས། །འགྲོ་བ་གཅིག་ཀྱང་མ་ལུས་པ། །དེ་ཡི་ས་ལ་འགོད་པར་ཤོག་།

འཕགས་པ་སྤྱན་རས་གཟིགས་ཀྱི་མཚན་སྔགས།

སྐྱོན་གྱིས་མ་གོས་སྐུ་མདོག་དཀར། །རྫོགས་སངས་རྒྱས་ཀྱིས་དབུ་ལ་བརྒྱན། །ཐུགས་རྗེ་ཅན་གྱིས་འགྲོ་ལ་གཟིགས། །སྤྱན་རས་གཟིགས་ལ་ཕྱག་འཚལ་ལོ། ། ཨོཾ་མ་ཎི་པདྨ་ཧཱུཾ།

ཨོ་རྒྱན་འབྱུང་བཞིའི་གསོལ་འདེབས།

ས་ཆུ་མེ་རླུང་འབྱུང་བའི་བར་ཆད་ས༔ སྒྱུ་ལུས་ཉེན་ཅིང་འཇིག་པའི་དུས་བྱུང་ཚེ༔ ཡིད་གཉིས་ཐེ་ཚོམ་མེད་པར་གསོལ་བ་འདེབས༔ ཨོ་རྒྱན་འབྱུང་བ་བཞི་ཡི་ལྷ་མོར་བཅས༔ འབྱུང་བ་རང་སར་ཞི་བར་ཐེ་ཚོམ་མེད༔ ཨོ་རྒྱན་པདྨ་འབྱུང་གནས་ལ་གསོལ་བར་འདེབས༔ བསམ་པ་ལྷུན་གྱིས་འགྲུབ་པར་བྱིན་གྱིས་རློབས།
