Practice during total solar eclipse

Tomorrow there is a total solar eclipse. It will begin at 18:17 UK time and will reach its maximum at around 19:12 before ending at about 20:06 UK time. It is said that during a solar eclipse (not the whole day), merits are multiplied 100 millionfold. Yongdzin Rinpoche taught us how to practise duirng this special time, saying that is very important to recite །ཚེ་དབང་སྨོན་ལམ་དོན་འདུས་རིན་ཆེན་ཕྲེང་བ་བཞུགས། The Precious Mala: A Collection of Aspirational Prayers, also known as Tsewang Mönlam and then remain in the Natural State. To support our fellow Bönpo practitioners, we have made this prayer available GRATIS HERE.

Not much is known about this one. We only have a few short prayers, and they say…
