WISH-FULFILLING DHARANI of GURU RINPOCHE in 7 Lines of Sanskrit with Buddhist Mantra

Every 10th of the LUNAR month (at posting, August 4, 2025) is PADMASAMBHAVA DAY. Here, Buddha Weekly chants the 7 lines in beautiful Sanskrit for full blessings, three times with his mantra.
Guru Rinpoche himself explained the benefits of the 7-Lines of Praise, his Dharani in Sanskrit:
"If you simply call upon me with this melody of vajra sound, I, Padma, cannot help but come to you. I will give you my blessings and will grand Empowerment of great primordial wisdom." (From from a Dharma treasure of Pema Garwang Chimé Yudrung Lingpa, Guru Rinpoche declares to King Trisongdetsen and his companions.)
FROM Phakchok Rinpoche (Samye) about 7 Lines of Prayer and the Ganachakra (which is on the 10th Lunar day):
"The word for ‘feast offering’ in Sanskrit is ganachakra, which if translated into Tibetan is tsok kyi khorlo, wheel of accumulation. Gathering the two accumulations of merit and wisdom is the supreme and indispensable method for clearing away the cloud of obscurations that prevent us from realizing our buddha-nature. And the practice of feast offerings is one of the most skillful ways to swiftly gather the accumulations and also purify our obscurations and mend our broken samayas.

In many of Guru Rinpoche’s treasure teachings, it says that performing feast offerings generates tremendous merit. And there have been many instances when Guru Rinpoche himself has appeared in person during feast offerings and blessed the practitioners who were calling upon him with unwavering devotion.

Although we are all practicing different sadhanas and so on, all of which have their own individual feast offering texts, they all have the same benefits and the same purpose: gathering the accumulations of merit and wisdom and purifying our obscurations. For those of you who perform feast offerings on special days of the lunar calendar, such as Guru Rinpoche day (10th) and Dakini day (25th), I would like to make one simple suggestion: in order to create auspicious coincidences (or tendrel) for yourself and others, it’s very important to begin your practice by supplicating Guru Rinpoche with the Seven Line Prayer."

in SANSKRIT:
hūṁ | oḍiyāne vāyavye |
padmakesarakāṇḍe |
siddhir labdhātyadbhutā |
khyāta padmasambhava |
bahuḍākībhir āvṛta |
tavaivānusarāmi |
āyāhy adhiṣṭḥānārthaṁ |
guru padma siddhi hūṁ ||
Mantra:
om ah hūṁ vajra guru padma siddhi hūṁ

In English the great Dharani praise translates as:
In Oḍiyāna in the North-West
In the heart of a lotus flower
Endowed with the most marvelous attainments
You are renowned as the Lotus Born
Surrounded by many hosts of Dakinis
Following in your footsteps
I pray to you. Come inspire me with your blessing.
