In general, a Chang Chog is a purification ritual or puja.This ritual is a distinct method to benefit a being's consciousness to accomplish the pure realm through the perfect Samadhi of the Vajramaster,aimed like an arrow towards the purification of the obstructions of body,speech and mind,and towards the vast gathering of the two accumulations of merit and wisdom.As a result of the purification of the mind stream , and force of the accumulation of merits dedicated to the being, it is possible to accomplish the pure realm.
The basis of purification is the quintessential Buddha nature that is the inherent nature of the mind of all sentient beings.The elements to be purified are the adventitious stains that obscure the true natural of the mind.These stains are the essence of suffering;the five poison of attachment,aversion,ignorance,pride and envy,as well as their basis,which are the five contaminated 'Skhandas' of form,feeling,mental perception,mental formations and consciousness.
'Chang Chog' Prayer for removing defilements in conjuction.This spiritual gathering will provide devotees of the Holy Triple Gems an opportunity to benefit from the enrgy of group prayers and the transfer of merits to benefit their departed their relatives and friends, so that they may be relieved from all suffering.
In addition ,the merits will also be dedicated towards nation-wide prosperity and peace,and for the sake of all sentient beings,without exception - may all be happy and free from sufferings;may all accomplish the two accumulations of merit and wisdom;and may their wishes be fulfilled according to the Dharma.
