May 14, 2010

Attached is the short verses chanting book in Pali, parts 1 & 2 of 3 used at our Watt Dhammarangsi. It also includes an English translation.

First part leads to requesting the Dhamma. The second part are optional requests for the Paritta and Dhammadesanā.

Only part 2 is printed on this page.

Requesting the Paritta

vippattippatibāhāya sabbasampattisidhiyā sabbadukkhavināsāya parittaṃ brūtha maṅgalaṃ For the warding of all misfortune, for the attainment of all fortune, for the destruction of all suffering, may you chant the blissful paritta.
vippattippatibāhāya sabbasampattisidhiyā sabbabhayavināsāya parittaṃ brūtha maṅgalaṃ For the warding of all misfortune, for the attainment of all fortune, for the destruction of all fear, may you chant the blissful paritta.
vippattippatibāhāya sabbasampattisidhiyā sabbarogavināsāya parittaṃ brūtha maṅgalaṃ For the warding of all misfortune, for the attainment of all fortune, for the destruction of all sickness, may you chant the blissful paritta.

Requesting the Dhammadesanā

brahmā ca lokādhipatī sahampatī katañjalī andhivaram āyācatha santīdha sattāpparajjakkhajātikā tesetu dhammaṃ anukampimaṃ pajaṃ saddhamabheriṃ vinayañca kāyaṃ suttañca bandhaṃ abhidhammacammaṃ ākotayanto catusaccadandaṃ pabodha neyye parisāya majjhe Brahma, the ruler of the sahampati world, joined his palms in reverence and entreated the unrivaled Buddha: There are beings here with little dust in their eyes; pray teach the Dhamma out of compassion for them. The teaching (Dhamma) of the good Buddha is like a drum: the Vinaya (disciplinary rule) is like the body of the drum; the Sutta (suture, the sermons) is like the cord tied around the body of the drum; the Abhidhamma is like the animal’s skin used for the drum head; the Fourfold Noble Truth is like the stick used to beat the drum so that the four assemblies of bhikkhus (monks), bhikkhunīs (nuns), upāsakas (laymen), and upāsikā (laywoman) can hear the Dhamma and awaken.
