Making prayer requests to Lamas and the sangha of practitioners is a traditional and widely Buddhist activity practiced for centuries up to the present. Combined with prayers, lamp offerings may be made to support and celebrate positive circumstances, as well as to help people in difficult times or during uncertain transitions. The gift of light and the accompanying prayers help to bring about less suffering and greater happiness in times of illness, loss, uncertainty, and death.
A traditional element of making a prayer request is to offer some support to the sangha as a way of further establishing a positive karmic connection between those who are praying and whomever is being prayed for. This creates more conducive causes and conditions for wholesome aspirations and practices to be actualized for the benefit of others.
