Illustrated by the artist in watercolor and digital design, this prayer print depicts Shantideva's Prayer (Advaharma) in a mandalah style with symbolic imagery of lotus, cherry blossoms, budhah, willow, koi, an egret, water and other imagery form nature. Shantideva was an 8th-century Indian Buddhist monk and scholar at Nalanda. He was an adherent of the Madhyamaka philosophy of Nagarjuna. The prayer's inscription is in English.

"May I be a guard
for those who need protection
A guide for those on the path
A boat, a raft, a bridge for those who wish to cross the flood
May I be a lamp in the darkness
A resting place for the weary
A healing medicine for all who are sick
A vase of plenty, a tree of miracles
And for the boundless
multitudes of living things
May I bring sustenance and awakening
Enduring like the earth and sky
Until all beings are freed from sorrow
And all are awakened."
- Shantideva
