Kính Mừng Khánh Đản Đức Nhiếp Chính Vương Gyalwa Dokhampa

On this most auspicious and sacred occasion of the Holy Birthday of His Eminence Gyalwa Dokhampa, we - the devoted disciples of the glorious Drukpa Lineage in Vietnam - humbly bow at Your Eminence’s lotus feet and offer our most profound homage and heartfelt felicitations.

Your Eminence is a sublime and authentic holder of the precious Drukpa Lineage - a true heart-son disciple and a radiant bearer of the sacred spiritual transmission of His Holiness Gyalwang Drukpa, the supreme head of this unbroken lineage of wisdom and compassion.

Through Your Eminence’s boundless kindness and blessings, the sacred light of the Dharma continues to shine brightly in this world of suffering. For us, Your Eminence is like a guiding lamp in the darkness of samsara, illuminating the path that leads beings toward awakening and liberation.

On this most joyful and blessed day, we offer our deepest prayers and aspirations: 

May Your Eminence’s precious life remain firm and enduring like a vajra mountain.

May Your Eminence enjoy perfect health, unceasing strength, and boundless spiritual vitality.

May Your enlightened wisdom, compassion, and activities expand effortlessly throughout the ten directions of the universe.

May countless sentient beings encounter Your Eminence’s liberating teachings and be guided across the ocean of samsara to the shore of ultimate freedom.

May the sacred teachings of the glorious Drukpa Lineage flourish ever more widely.

May monasteries, practitioners, and disciples everywhere uphold and realise the profound Dharma.

And may Your Eminence’s enlightened activities continue unceasingly for the benefit of all beings, bringing peace, harmony, and awakening to this world.

With deepest devotion and reverence, we place these humble prayers at Your Eminence’s lotus feet.

With folded hands and hearts filled with gratitude,
