Anumoda (अनुमोद) refers to “rejoicing (in the merit of the world)”, according to the Guru Mandala Worship (maṇḍalārcana) ritual often performed in combination with the Cakrasaṃvara Samādhi, which refers to the primary pūjā and sādhanā practice of Newah Mahāyāna-Vajrayāna Buddhists in Nepal.—Accordingly, “I bow to all Buddhas, and to the dharma spoken by the Buddha, And to the Sangha perfected in virtue, I bow to the three jewels. The three jewels are my refuge, I confess in proportion to all my sins, Rejoicing (anumoda) in the merit of the world, turning thought to enlightenment”.
