I vow my suffering of illness will replace all the living being’s illness;

I vow my agony of death will replace all the living being’s agony of death;

I vow all the bad karma will transfer to myself ;

I vow all the merits and good karma will belong to all the living beings immensely.

Should we predispose and act in this way, maybe we are already close to the boundary of the basic standard of cultivation. This is Choktrul’s sincere thought, speaking out from mind and heart. May all the vows above can come true as wish.
