Inviting the bell ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

May the sound of this bell penetrate deeply into the cosmos.
In even the darkest spots, may living beings hear it clearly
so their suffering will cease,
understanding arise in their hearts,
and they can transcend the path of anxiety and sorrow.

Namo Shakyamunaye Buddha.
