De Gate of Sweet Nectar wordt gezongen tijdens Zen Peacemaker ceremonies.

“Calling out to hungry hearts
Everywhere through endless time,
You who wander, you who thirst,
I offer you this bodhi mind.
Calling out to hungry spirits,
Everywhere through endless time,
Calling out to hungry hearts
All the lost and the left behind,
Gather round and share this meal,
Your joy and your sorrow
I make mine.”

The Gates of Sweet Nectar – Sacred Zen Buddhist Invocation
