May the sweet scent of our keeping the precepts,  
of our meditation, of our wisdom, of our liberation,  
and of the knowledge of our liberation --  
all this form a bright-shining, cloud-like pavilion,  
and may it pervade the whole universe, and thus do 
homage to the countless Buddhas, Dharma, and Sanghas, 
in all of the ten directions.  

Mantra of the incense offering: 
Om Ba Ra To Bi Ya Hum 
Om Ba Ra To Bi Ya Hum 
Om Ba Ra To Bi Ya Hum  

We pay homage to the teacher  
of the three worlds, the loving father of all creatures,  
to him who is our original teacher, Shakyamuni Buddha.  
We pay homage to the eternally existent  
assembly of all the Buddhas, in all the ten directions  
of the past, of the present, and of the future,  
as countless as the lands and seas of Lord Indra's net.  
We pay homage to all the dharmas, 
eternally existent, in all the ten directions,  
of the past, of the present, and of the future,  
as countless as the lands and the seas in Lord Indra's net.  
We pay homage to:  
Manjushri, Bodhisattva of great wisdom;  
Samantabhadra, Bodhisattva of great action;  
the [bad word] Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva,  
and the Lord of many vows, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.  
We pay homage to the countless   [bad word] and love-filled holy sanghas, and most  
especially do [bad word] thosewho have received  
personally the Lord Buddha's injunction on  
Mount Gridhakuta - the ten major disciples, the sixteen  
holy ones, the five hundred holy ones, and all of the  
one thousand two hundred great arhats. 
We pay homage to those great patriarchs  
and teachers who [bad word] from the west to the east,  
and those who [bad word] to the Korean shores,  
and who have transmitted the lamp of the Dharma 
throughout the generations; so too do we pay homage  
to our tradition's masters, recognized  
throughout the ages, and to the various numberless  
spiritual teachers and friends. 
We pay homage to all the 
congregations of the Sangha, eternally existent, 
in all the ten directions, 
of the past, of the present, and of the future, 
as countless as the lands and seas in Lord Indra's net.  
We but earnestly desire that the inexhaustible three  
precious ones will most lovingly [bad word]  
receive our devotions, and that they shall empower us  
spiritually; we further most earnestly desire that,  
together with all creatures in the universe,  
we attain to the Buddha way.
