Sampa Lhundrupma (Tib. བསམ་པ་ལྷུན་གྲུབ་མ་, Wyl. bsam pa lhun grub ma), The Prayer to Guru Rinpoche That Spontaneously Fulfills All Wishes, is a prayer that forms the seventh chapter of Le'u Dünma. It was given to the prince Mutri Tsenpo, the King of Gungthang, and son of King Trisong Detsen, by Padmasambhava as he was leaving for the land of the rakshasa ogres in the southwest.

In this prayer, thirteen emanations of Guru Rinpoche are mentioned:

  • Guru Chemchok, against war,
  • against illness,
  • against famine & deprivation,
  • for the transmission of the terma treasures,
  • for travel,
  • for protection against wild animals,
  • against disruption in the elements,
  • against robbery
  • against assailants,
  • for the moment of death, for the bardo,
  • against mental distress (Guru Dewachenpo), &
  • against suffering in the world at large.
