Aspiration Prayers
It is traditional to recite aspiration prayers after one’s Dharma practice. These give direction to the merit of our actions. Of course, we can make personal aspirations according to our wishes, but it is also considered very beneficial to make the very same wishes that past masters have made and accomplished.
