The Thirty-eighth Gate
Reflection on impurity is a gate of Dharma illumination; for [with it] we abandon the mind that is tainted by desire.
Impurity:
not pure; mixed with extraneous matter of inferior or contaminating nature

May we together with all beings
Practice avoidance of impurities
That our minds may be free from desires
May this offering bring peace to all beings
May our actions contribute to the harmony of The Universe
And, may all hearts and minds be opened to the present.

Just another itinerant monk; go somewhere else to listen to someone who really knows.
