The Beginning
Take refuge and arouse bodhichitta.
The Main Part
Think that in this and other world systems, the buddhas, bodhisattvas and gurus... are ready to enter nirvana... beseech them that until samsara is emptied, they may remain in the world and benefit sentient beings.
Reminder
Time and again when such prayers were made, many eminent masters changed their minds and lived on for many more years... entreating teachers not to pass into nirvana is critical and very meritorious.
The Ending
Dedicate the merit in emptiness, free from mental constructions and fabrications.
