“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair.”
I intend to forego 'despair' no matter what.

Mantra of Avalokiteshvara
The buddha of Compassion
When we sing along with the chant, our entire body, heart and mind
gradually come into deep contemplation. Our innate wisdom is revealed,
so that we can joyfully abide by the Six Paramittas of keeping the
precepts, tolerance, diligence, charity, contemplation and wisdom. We
can eliminate all the poisons of greed, anger, delusion, arrogance,
doubts and evil thoughts, And open the Path of the Bodhisathvas by
closing the Six Realms of Heaven, Humans, Asuras, Animals, Hungry Ghosts
and Hell.
The merits of your chanting the mantra will benefit not only yourself,
but all living creatures, including small animals and insects, so that
their souls will become tranquil and joyful.
"Namo Ratna Trayaya, Namo Arya Jvana Sagara, Vairochana, Byuhara Jaya
Tathagataya. Arahate, Samyaksam Buddhaya. Namo Sarwa Tathagate Bhyay,
Arahata Bhyah, Samyaksam Buddhe Bhyah. Namo Arya Avalokite, Shoraya
Bodhisattvaya, Maha Sattvaya, Maha Karunikaya, Tadyata, Om Dara Dara,
Diri Diri, Duru Duru, Itte We, Te Chale Chale, Prachale Prachale,
Kusume, Kusuma Wa Re, Ili Milli. Chiti Jvala Mapanaye Shoha."
