Can someone recommend me a source/book with Tibetan Buddhist prayers which have prayers/chants common to all Tibetan schools?
What are the complete set of prayers common to all schools of Tibetan Buddhism?
I need help.
Tibetan Buddhist Prayers
Re: Tibetan Buddhist Prayers
Complete set of prayers? I doubt that there is such a thing. It is not like each school has a few pages of prayers and you can then look and see which ones are identical between them.

“Whatever has to happen, let it happen!”
“Whatever the situation is, it’s fine!”
“I really don’t need anything!

Then, the Licchavi Vimalakīrti spoke to the elder Śāriputra and the great disciples: “Reverends, eat of the food of the Tathāgata! It is ambrosia perfumed by the great compassion. But do not fix your minds in narrow-minded attitudes, lest you be unable to receive its gift.”

Re: Tibetan Buddhist Prayers
Each Tibetan school and many individual lineages within those schools have their own Daily Prayer Book (Cho Jyod). For instance, in Nyingma, there's the Mindroling prayer book, Shechen Prayer book, Dudjom prayer book, etc. Nevertheless, there are many prayers in these books common to all, such as Zang Chod Monlam and the Sutra of the Three Heaps. IME, mostly these common prayers come from the sutras or from such great Teachers such as Nagajuna Who are revered by all.

Re: Tibetan Buddhist Prayers
In addition to to all the good advice in this thread, the Kagyu Monlam Prayer Book is a good source for prayers in English. Some are specific to Kamtsang, but many are shared by all Tibetan lineages.
དམ་པའི་དོན་ནི་ཤེས་རབ་ཆེ་བ་དང་།
རྟོག་གེའི་ཡུལ་མིན་བླ་མའི་བྱིན་རླབས་དང་།

"Absolute Truth is not an object of analytical discourse or great discriminating wisdom,
It is realized through the blessing grace of the Guru and fortunate Karmic potential.
Like this, mistaken ideas of discriminating wisdom are clarified."
