Turning the Wheel of Dharma at Changlimithang
about 2500 years ago,
Gave the first sermon
on the Four Noble Truths
To his five disciples at Sarnath
In Varanasi,
Just as the Lord Buddha,
Under the patronage of
Dharma King Zugchen Nyingpo,
Imparted his profound teachings on Heart Sutra
To thousands sacred sangha and lay followers,
Gathered at the Vulture Peak mountain,
The assemblage of the supreme holders
of all major traditions and lineages,
And thousands of sacred sangha and laymen,
Under the patronage of great Dharma King,
Jigme Khesar Namgyal Wangchuk,
Gathered at Changlimithang, in 2025,
And turn the Wheel of Dharma.
Just as the Lord Buddha,
Under the patronage of
King Dawa Zangpo of the sacred realm of Shambala,
Bestowed the first Kalachakra empowerment,
The supreme Lord, Je Khenpo Jigme Cheodra,
Under the patronage of
The great Bodhisattva King of Bhutan,
Conferred the empowerment of Kalachakra,
Upon thousands of sacred sangha and lay practitioners,
Gathered at Changlimithang.
Thus, the radiant sun of
The Buddha’s sacred teachings shone once again.
May the Buddha Dharma flourish and
Rise higher and higher, and further and further.
