The aspiration of Kuntu Zangpo, the prayer of the Primordial Buddha, is one of the deepest and most profound Buddhist texts. It is also a prayer of aspiration on the path of awakening to the true nature of reality. It expresses the different forms in which primordial awareness appears and helps us to understand that it is only our clouded understanding that makes things appear as other than they really are. Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa’s line by line teaching is based on the commentary by the 15th Gyalwa Karmapa. “The prayer is such that by hearing it, by understanding it, there is no way and no possibility for you not to get enlightened.” The 15th Gyalwa Karmapa
