Elaborate dedication prayer
Elaborate dedication prayer
I would like to do a more elaborate dedication sometimes. Are there longer prayers for this? There are very long confession prayers for example. Any suggestions?

The classic elaborate dedication, used in all or most of the Tibetan traditions is the King of Prayers. Here is the Lotsawa House link:

The dedication chapter of Bodhisattvacaryavatara is another option.
