The Forty-fifth Gate
Knowledge of names and forms is a gate of Dharma illumination;
for it clears away many obstacles.
Names / Form:
a word or a combination of words by which any object of thought is designated / the shape of a thing or person
May we together with all buddhas
Clarify our understanding of names and form
That we may be assured of a clear path
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.
