"May I become at all times, both now and forever
a protector for those without protection,
a guide for those who have lost their way,
a ship for those with oceans to cross,
a bridge for those with rivers to cross,
a santuary for those in danger,
a lamp for those with out light,
a place of refuge for those who lack shelter,
and a servant to all in need."
~His Holiness the Dalai Lama
