Prostration.

To make prostration one stands in good balance. Join the hands together, slightly in a shape of a lotus ready to bloom.

The ready to bloom half open lotus is expressing the beauty of generating Bodhichitta.

Then place hands at the level of the forehead and pay homage to the body aspect of the Buddhas. By that we purify all obscurations and negative actions of the body.

Then hands a bit lower till the level of the throat and pay homage to the speech aspect of the Buddhas. Speech defilements and obscurations are purified.

Now the ready to bloom lotus is going to the level of our heart and pay homage to the mind aspect of the Buddhas. Negative emotions are purified.

Blessings of the body, speech and mind are coming from all the Buddhas.

Then when touching the ground with forehead, both hands, both knees we pay homage to the five  Buddha families by which the five poisons are purified in five wisdoms.

By the full prostration which is the prostration of devotion, the body is stretching out flat laying on the ground and arms and legs are extented. By rising up again, we take upon our stream of being the suffering of all beings.

Offering completely for all beings in genuine humility, there is nothing foolish on this. While pride, the fortress of ego is feeding suffering and prevent us of any progress in purification.

The medicine of humility in naked nature, for the benefit of all. I prostrate in deep devotion and compassion. _/\_ _/\_ _/\_
