Prayers for Green Card

Date of Advice:
Date Posted:

A student asked Rinpoche what prayers they could do to remove obstacles and help secure a green card for permanent residency in the United States. Rinpoche advised these practices.

  • From now until you go for your interview for the green card, recite Praises to the Twenty-one Taras more and rely on Tara.
  • Also recite The Prayer to Guru Rinpoche that Spontaneously Fulfills All Wishes (Sampa Lhundrupma) a few times each day.
  • Recite The Mantra Promised by Tara (The Mantra Promised by Arya Mother Liberator Herself) seven times a day for one month.

[Find links to these practices in the FPMT Catalogue.]

Update: The application was successful and the student received the green card. They were in the final stage of the process and there was a risk they would be refused at the last interview, but that didn’t happen.
