Five lands, three realms, one continent, eight great practice places, twenty-one snow mountains, twenty-five great sacred sites, etc., and all those who protect and govern the great and small sacred sites. In short, for the sake of the sacred sites and local deities of the three thousand worlds, Jambudvipa, and Tibet, and for the protection of the lineage and Dharma, I offer the sacred substances and the nectar of wisdom. May the world be peaceful, and may the virtue and goodness of the teachings and beings increase. May you be a companion in accomplishing the aspirations of yogis. I respectfully praise the body, speech, mind, qualities, and activities of all the guest lineages. I confess all faults in the expanse of the Dharma realm. Please forgive me with great wisdom and compassion, and grant me unobstructed activity and accomplishment. Always be pleased and mindful, and accomplish your activities. May the Three Roots and wealth deities always reside in their supports. May the worldly ones return to their respective places. May the auspicious light blaze forth, pervading all that is stable and moving, with the appearance of virtue in this life and the next! This was written at Tsadra Rinchen Drak at the request of the diligent practitioner and holder of the Vinaya, Purlha Karma Thutop, by Karma Ngawang Yonten Gyatso, the Acharya of the final Torma. May virtue and goodness increase! A Torma offering ritual for the Three Roots and Dharma Protectors, easy to carry, a feast of joy for the Vidyadharas.
