    Dear Dolma Lili,

    I’m sorry to read that you have been so down and the reasons why. What you can do to help the situation is engage in the joint practice of Lama Tsongkhapa and Dorje Shugden. Everything that happens to us in life is due to karma, whether positive or negative. Therefore, we need to do something to stop ourselves from creating negative karma and promoting virtuous activity instead. At the same time, we need to purify the negative karma that we have.

    One way in which you can do this is to engage in deity practice. Lama Tsongkhapa’s practice is very well-known to help calm and control our minds, especially when we are under a lot of stress and pressure, we have a lot of emotions or we are suffering from forms of depression.

    Dorje Shugden’s practice removes obstacles so that we can achieve good things and at the same time creates positive conditions in our lives. You can find the practice here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/beginners-introduction-to-dorje-shugden.html

    I hope this help. Thank you.

Question asked by quin

是不是所有的降头都可以化解呢？

  1. Reply by pastor

    Quin：

    你好。降头或巫术的形式有很多种，可以是通过利用小鬼、咒语、药物、食物等各种方式来进行，严重程度则看施降头的一方法力有多强，使用什么媒介，同时也看中降头者本身是不是曾经做了什么而招惹上这种事等。

    佛教的确有许多法门可以帮人解决降头或巫术缠身，轻微的有时只需办几场法会，或当事人修习某些法门，一段时间后就可以获得平息。常见用来对治降头或巫术的法门包括狮面空行母、多杰雄登护法、大白伞盖佛母、扎泽护法法门等。

    至于严重的情况，则需要请示真正有经验的大师们。毕竟这些大师们才拥有足够的修为和能力来看清楚问题的症结，继而才能对症下药。然而，请示大师之后，受降者必须严格遵从大师们所提供的忠告，方能有效解决问题。

    针对你提出的“是不是所有的降头都可以化解呢？”，请恕我无法直接而片面地对这个问题提供一个可以或不可以的答案。修行证量高的大师们的确可以针对大部分问题提供解决方法。然而，就像医生治疗病人一样，诊断和治疗方案都提出了，患者能不能痊愈还要看他本身的情况，是不是遵从医嘱，按时吃药，而更关键的是，这个病人本身原本的健康状态是否良好，是否本来就患有各种难治的慢性病。套在降头或巫术这事上，就等同于被下降者本身的因果和业报。毕竟，一个人之所以会被降头缠身，除了施降者有意加害，也要看受降者是否有遭受降头的业报，以及业果是否已经到了成熟不可逆的阶段。

    大师们的确能够给予各种帮助和忠告，然而因果却是个人的，最终还必须靠自己通过大师们指点的方式去净障积德，才能根治问题。这一点不容忽视。

Question asked by Stanley Robinson

Hello,
I am writing because I am looking for a practice that deals with racism. I am black man in the West and I am finding it hard at times to deal with all the anger. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Stanley Robinson,

    I’m sorry to read about your experiences. Anger is a very powerful yet negative emotion, therefore to discuss it in detail is beyond the scope of this answer. But I will try to answer and give you some things that you can do to help.

    The first thing we need to remember when dealing with any negative emotions, or for that matter any Dharma teaching, is the Four Noble Truths. The first of these truths is that everyone goes through suffering in some form or another. Racism is a form of suffering. We need to accept the fact that we suffer and then we can move on from there.

    Usually, when we come across racism or similar forms of suffering, we react to our habituation from countless lifetimes, and that is with anger. But when we get angry, this clouds our mind and we end up making decisions based on our emotions. This inevitably leads to the creation of negative karma, which only makes us suffer again in the future. Hence, the reason we should get control of our anger. Then when we have a calm and collected mind we can work towards removing racism through things like education. Something like racism cannot be removed from societal consciousness so easily, and takes time. If we have knee-jerk reactions then it will only lead to more suffering. Instead we should put our minds and actions to better solutions. That being said there are some things you can do to help this:

    Contemplation: Buddhism is about the mind. Hence, when you continually contemplate the negativity of anger and how it leads to suffering, as explained in brief above, you affect a change in your mind. Over time you will see your mind become calmer and then you will be able to make better decisions and feel less angry.

    Physical remedies: when you face situations in which you become angry you can find a physical remedy that suits you. Some people breath deeply, some people physically leave the vicinity to calm down and then come back to it once they are calmer. You can even try the methods listed here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/inspiration-worthy-words/a-method-to-release-anger.html

    Deity practice: it is believed that each Buddha deity has a particular benefit that they grant first when you engage in their practice. The Buddha that is known to help overcome anger is actually Chenrezig, also known as the Buddha of Compassion. You can engage in his prayers and mantras everyday, as his benefits extend beyond just overcoming anger. See here for a short prayer and mantras: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/one-minute-story/powerful-and-short-praise-to-avalokitesvara-chenrezig
    Coupled with contemplation on the negativity of anger, this will lead to a real change in your mind.

    I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please do ask.

Question asked by Nijala

Triratna Saranam🙏 You see whenever I do Vajarasattva including four opponent powers, I cannot put my head still. It goes round n round. The more intense my visualisation are the intense those movements become. Does it make any sense? What is actually happening? I'm a bit scared n curious to know. Many Thanks.

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Nijala,

    It is very good to read that you are engaging in the practice of Vajrasattva. It is a very powerful practice when combined with the Four Opponent Powers. Sometimes people do have varied experiences when they do certain practices. May I ask if you have received Vajrasattva initiation? In that case you should refer to initiating guru.

    Generally however, if such things occur, you move focus to another part of the practice. For example, if this happens when you visualise strongly, then you reduce the strength of your visualisation and concentrate on the sound of the recitation of the mantra. Try this for some time, and then go back to concentrating on the visualisation. You will notice that the spinning sensation has reduced.

    There is nothing to be scared about when this happens. The reason for this is that when you engage in any meditational practice the psychic winds within the body start moving, even if you are not engaging in psychic wind meditation. This actually helps to start clearing any energy blockages within your body as such blockages are also the manifestation of negative karma. It is said the our mind rides on the psychic winds in our bodies, hence when we have less energy blockages, our minds improve as well. This improvement of the mind aids Dharma practice and you are able to understand and implement Dharma teachings easier, leading to real and lasting transformation.

    When we are not used to the movement of the winds, then you can have certain physical affects. This can occur with any form of meditational practice, but is particular noted in some people when they engage in deity practices, this is because deity practices are very potent form of meditation. When this happens take a couple of deep breaths to calm yourself and relax. Then continue or move focus to another area of the practice such as mantra recitation. It the feeling persists, then stop the mantra recitation and visualization, finish of reciting the rest of the prayers and do a dedication. End your session there. You can then try coming back to it later.

    Some people get put off doing deity practices because they have such occurances. But there is nothing wrong or negative about these experiences at all. Some people have them and so do not. Either way, it is best to take things slowly rather than to try and bulldoze through it. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Tommy

I saw Tsem Rinpoche's statue of Methar and I was wondering if it is possible for me to acquire it?

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Tommy,

    The statue of Methar that you have seen pictures of was carved especially for Rinpoche. We have not produced any statues of Methar for people to invite home. I’m sorry that I cannot be of any more help. Perhaps, if you would really like a statue you can commission someone to carve one or make one for you. You can use the images of Methar in the article as a reference: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/great-lamas-masters/methar-of-tengyeling-monastery.html

Question asked by Tommy

A question about the Dharmpala Methar. Are other high ranking lamas aware of Methar i.e. Trijang Rinpoche, Gangchen Rinpoche, Zasep Rinpoche or the New Kadampa Tradition?

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Tommy,

    Thank you for your question. I cannot comment it they know about Methar or not. If they have a connection with Serkong Dorje Chang, who placed Methar under the care of Kache Marpo, then they may be aware. There are many deities with Tibetan Buddhism, some lamas focus and concentrate on certain deities and other lamas focus on other deities. Therefore they may or may not know about Methar. I suggest contacting them if you would like to find out. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Roman

Hi! Could you please help with suggestions regarding pikas perform and how to find guru?

Kind regards,

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Roman,

    Apologies, but I do not understand the term “pikas” that you used. Are you referring to prayers and ritual services? In regards to finding a guru, you can need to do some research in whatever tradition you feel attracted to. After that, you should research about certain gurus to see if they are qualified or not. You can find information about the qualities of a Guru in the 50 Verses of Guru Devotion: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/complete-commentary-on-50-verses-of-guru-devotion.html.

    Sometimes however, you may have an innate liking of a particular Guru, this means that you have affinity with them from previous lifetimes, and you will be drawn to them naturally. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Margo

Are there statues of Yumar Gyaltsen and Shangmo Dorje Putri on the Dorje Shugden alter at Kechara Forest retreat?

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Margo,

    There are no statues of Yumar Gyaltsen and Shangmo Dorje Putri on the main altar of Wisdom Hall in Kechara Forest Retreat.

    Yumar Gyaltsen is however represented on the altar in the form Kache Marpo, because they are simply too forms of the same being. Yumar Gyaltsen is also the site protector of Panglung Ritroe, here in Kechara Forest Retreat. An image of Shangmo Dorje Putri is kept at Tsem Ladrang (Rinpoche’s personal household). I hope this helps.

Question asked by Margo

Does Dorje Shugden's retinue included the following Dharmapalas?

1) Kache Marpo
2) Yumar Gyaltsen
3) Namkar Barzin
4) Methar
5) Shangmo Dorje Putri

Are there any other Dharmapalas that I may have missed?

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Margo,

    Kache Marpo is part of Dorje Shugden’s entourage, and is known Dorje Shugden’s minister.

    Yumar Gyaltsen is also in Dorje Shugden’s entourage because he is the peaceful form of Kache Marpo.

    Namkar Barzin is also a part of Dorje’s Shugden’s entourage.

    Both Methar and Shangmo Dorje Putri are under Kache Marpo, so by extension as he is Dorje Shugden’s minister, they are also part of Dorje Shugden’s entourage.

    That covers the Dharma Protectors that we have information on. However a Dharma Protector such as Dorje Shugden will have hundreds of thousands of beings under him, who he sends to aid practitioners. It would be impossible to know them all. Just like a King will have ministers, and under the ministers their will be aides, and also the army, etc. This is exactly how it is with Dorje Shugden and all major Dharma Protectors. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Naresh Kumar Rudra

why badluck follows me..please give me advise to change my life good. iam facing somany difficulties since last 5 years..

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Naresh Kumar Rudra,

    I am sorry that you have been going through such a difficult time. Lord Gautama Buddha taught that everything that happens to us in life is actually due to karma. This can be karma accumulated from earlier on in this life, but also covers our countless previous lifetimes as well. We need to go through the results of this karma, whether good or bad, in some form or another. Therefore the reason why we face difficulties is due to negative karma.

    That being said there are ways to overcome the effects of this negative karma and that is the practice of Dharma – transformation of the mind. We can also engage in the practice of certain deities that help us to purify the negative karma and remove our obstacles. I would like to suggest that you engage in the practice of Dorje Shugden. There is an extensive article about his practice here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/?p=199447

    The practice of Dorje Shugden is extremely effective in removing our obstacles and creating very good conditions for us. You can also use this Tibetan Astrology calculator here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/?p=112685. When you have your Mewa number, you can read more about it and as part of that, it will suggest which deity mantra you should recite to help you based on your date of birth. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Dechen Tshering

Will mewa 5 and mewa 9 make a good faithful couple in future? If yes how would their financial and emotional life would be? What are the challenges they would face and what are the good things that would happen to them?

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Dechen Tshering,

    Thank you for your question. All forms of astrology that work from the time of birth are not set in stone. They are based on the most likely outcomes given the prevalent energies at the time of birth, which is in turn based on a person’s karma. According to Buddhism, karma is not fixed, it can be changed through our own effort and Dharma practice. You can read more about this here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/discovering-yourself-a-teaching-on-karma-mindstream.html

    This is also true for relationships. No matter who we have a relationship with if we put effort into it, coupled with various deity practices, we can make it a positive one, even if from the point of astrology it seems that we are not compatible. His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche has given a fantastic teaching on relationships here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/students-friends/ingredients-for-a-successful-relationship.html

    Please keep this in mind as you read the below, which is just a general guideline according to the Mewa system of astrology:

    Relationship for Mewa 5: This person is a very passionate, but can dominate in relationship, this can cause problems. This person must make effort to make sure that they don’t do this.

    Relationship for Mewa 9: When it comes to relationships, this person is very fiery, therefore they tend to be jealous easily. They should make effort not to be so jealous and be okay with their partner.

    Financial for Mewa 5: This person has the tendency to take risks, which can lead to financial loss, but these losses can be recovered quickly with effort. This person can also be prone to gambling, so this should be guarded against. This person is usually highly intelligent, so should aim for the high positions at work. They have the ability to reach those positions and do well in them.

    Financial for Mewa 9: This person’s financial situation tends to be up and down. In the earlier part of their life, they are prone to financial difficulties, but they become better in later life. If they don’t have a rich family to support them, they can make their own money, but it will take hard work. The person should engage in wealth generating practices and pujas to help them overcome this karma. This person would do best in an artistic job, such as painting, writing, or anything associated with the arts.

    These are the things that you should be aware of in this Mewa 5 and Mewa 9 relationship. But the Mewa 5 can engage in religious actions, such as sponsoring or doing pujas to, making thangkas or statues of, and engaging in practices related to Buddha Shakyamuni. Mewa 9 should do this in relation to the Boddhisattva Manjushri. These are practices which will specifically help you overcome any negative karma or karma that limits you in this life. It will help make all areas of your life better, including in relationships.

    Mewa 5 should also engage in the practice of any Dharma Protector. Mewa 9 should act in a very virtuous manner, such as being a genuine caring person caring for others and animals, abstaining from the 10 non-virtures and living a pure life, then you will have a spiritual helper, which is a mountain spirit, which will help you in difficult situations.

Question asked by Santi Swarup Mohanty

I am facing a lot of emotional problems in my friendship…I dnt know why my best friend is not loyal to me. Why he is not giving me priority in his life. How to create that love in my friends heart for me…so that our relationship will last forever.

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Santi Swarup Mohanty,

    Thank you for your questions. I’m sorry to hear that you are going through this difficult time in friendship. His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche has given an excellent teaching on Ingredients for a Successful Relationship, which you can watch here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/students-friends/ingredients-for-a-successful-relationship.html Although it is meant for those in a romantic relationship, many of the points Rinpoche mentioned can also be used in all our relationships with others, including with friends. It is a good teaching to learn how to build stronger and better relationships with others.

    Coupled with this, I would suggest that you engage in the join practice of Lama Tsongkhapa and the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden, which you can find here: https://www.dorjeshugden.org/practice/diamond-path-a-daily-sadhana-of-dorje-shugden

    The practice of Lama Tsongkhapa is very well-known to help with emotional situations and the calming of the mind, whereas Dorje Shugden is known for helping to remove obstacles and for the creation of beneficial situations in life.

    If you follow Rinpoche’s advice for improving relationships and engage in the daily practice, you will be blessed and your friendship will flourish, given that this friendship will be good and beneficial for both of you. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Gautam Jain

How to keep newborn girl baby namemeans on what letters and all
21/04/2020

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Gautam Jain,

    The system of Tibetan Astrology that we use does not specify what letters a person’s name should begin with according to their birthday. Instead it gives general indications of various aspects of life so the person knows what to expect and then can take efforts to live the best life possible. According to the date of birth, the baby girl is Mewa No.7. You can find more information here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/tibetan-astrology/mewa-7-the-mirror-of-the-mountain-spirit.html

    This system of astrology is actually based on karma. While most people think of karma to be static, it is changing all the time. When we put effort into something, coupled with various spiritual activities we can gain the maximum success from life. Therefore this system does not place emphasis on things like naming a baby according to specific letters, etc, but more on the actions the parent takes and the actions that the baby takes when she grows up. In this case it would be good to have a statue of the Buddha Tara Devi to be made and dedicated for the young baby girl. This spiritual activity will generate merit or ‘punya’ for the child which will benefit the child in later years. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Jason

Hi I'm having trouble practicing bodhicitta… For the most part I'm a mild mannered kind and caring person… My trouble starts when it's meal time. I am a carnivore. I understand logically and emotionally that meat and cheese and milk products come form the suffering and murdered animals. And I understand via the lamrim that these creatures have once been my mother, but once a steak or a nice roasted pork is set in front of me my mind goes blank and any dharma I try to retain goes flying out the door. Instead an unimaginable beastly hunger takes over and before I know it I've eaten the whole bloody thing. I have tried to look at this hunger through the lense of renunciation but again as soon as meat appears the hunger sets in and I can't think straight. What should I do?

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Jason,

    Thank you for your question. I’m very happy to read that you are practicing Bodhicitta, and trying to improve your spiritual life by doing so. First, let me start off by saying that spiritual transformation is a process, it won’t happen over night. And as part of that process, some of us have difficulties overcoming certain behaviours or habit. Other people will have difficulties in other areas or habits. It’s all part of the process and is very unique to each individual.

    The Lamrim is very good text to learn about bodhicitta, and the areas in which it discusses about the suffering of the animal realm is extensive. It is a good text to follow in this regards. Sometimes however, it may be difficult for us to actualise these teachings, therefore we can use other methods to help us. In this case, HE Tsem Rinpoche used to use things like documentaries, articles, etc, to help us come to actualise positive habits in our Dharma path. On this topic, Rinpoche had close students watch the following documentary twice a year: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/animals-vegetarianism/earthlings.html It is a very good documentary to watch about the suffering of animals and why we should go vegetarian. Perhaps you can watch it to aid your practice?

    There are also many other articles on this category about the topic: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/category/animals-vegetarianism You should read them and contemplate them also. Overtime you will be able to overcome the tendency to eat meat. Remember it won’t happen over night, it is a process as with any teaching on the spiritual path. I hope this helps.

Question asked by dwega

Hello, my question is whenever my friends relatives etc talk to me on phone like text message me why do i always feel negative. For example whenever i finish talking to them and when i am alone thinking about them i feel a sense of negativity like as if they all have bad intentions for me and wish bad for me. My intuition tells me none of them really care for me and they all wish bad to happen to me . Why i always feel this i am not genuinely connected to them anymore like how i was when i was young or till my early 20s. i feel like everyone has an agenda why they talk to me and none have good thoughts for me they wish bad thing happen to me.. i pray everyday but its not helping me ged rid of these thoughts..i just wanna know why im feeling this. Am i a bad person or am i actually sensing and catching their bad energy ?

  1. Reply by pastorniral

    Dear Dwega,

    Thank you for your question. I am sorry to read that you are feeling like this. There can be many reasons why you are feeling like this, but in most cases these experiences are because you seem to have lost that connection you had with them. This can be due to physical distance, but it can also be due to emotional distance.

    You can overcome this by doing a few things:

    (i) Meditate on gratitude: this makes us actually understand and cherish the experiences we have been through with people in our lives. You can find a short article on the topic here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/gratitude-makes-us-happier.html When we develop gratitude towards people, we actually become happier. What you are feeling now is not gratitude of what your relationships used to be like, but nostalgia about how you remember what your relationships were like. Hence that makes you sad. When reality does not match what you think your relationships should be like, you begin thinking that things are not right any more and that can lead to think that people are being negative towards you. That leads me on to the next point:

    (ii) Meditate on impermanence: when we think about relationships we think about them in a static manner. So, when reality does not match our expectations, this causes us pain. When you meditate on impermanence, you realise that situations and people change. When you realise that, you can move past your current emotion state and work on your relationships. It won’t make the relationships the same as they were, because that was in the past. But it will make the relationships healthy again. We must remember that people change, and we change too.

    You are not a bad person at all, everyone goes through these feelings sometime in their lives. It’s just that for some people it is stronger feelings than others.

    Daily practice of the Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa can help ease this emotional suffering, which you can find here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/me/tsongkapas-daily-practice-video-commentary.html

    If you are worried that you are catching their negative energy as well, you can engage in the practice of Dorje Shugden, available here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/beginners-introduction-to-dorje-shugden.html You can read the commentary to the prayers at the bottom of the article. This practice is also extremely beneficial in aiding to remove obstacles in our lives on a general basis as well. So you can even practice it for that purpose too.

    I hope this answers your questions.

As a pastor, Chia will dedicate his life to befitting others through spreading the works of Tsem Rinpoche and Dharma to many people, through the use of pujas, rituals, counseling and sharing of his knowledge.

Ordained as a Pastor in 2011, Chia Song Peng has had a rich and varied Dharma career. He has held a core position with the Kechara Paradise retail outlets, served as a personal attendant to Tsem Rinpoche, embarked on various pilgrimages and received initiations into higher yoga tantric practices. He is accomplished in many pujas and has a deep understanding of the Dharma.

As a pastor, Chia has dedicated his life to befitting others through spreading the works of Tsem Rinpoche and Dharma to many people, through the use of pujas, rituals, counseling and sharing of his knowledge.

When Chia first met Tsem Rinpoche, he was asked if he wanted to become a monk, however even though this was his aspiration he informed Tsem Rinpoche that he would do so at a later date. For Chia, as he has is already in the Dharma full-time, it would be best if he became ordained. Tsem Rinpoche has reminded Chia from time to time to work towards becoming a monk and he promised that he would do so in the future.

Kechara began from nothing to become a growing Dharma organisation with major projects such as Kechara Forest Retreat, so Chia thinks that this is the perfect time to become ordained as a monk. Recently Tsem Rinpoche asked Chia again if he would like to be ordained, this time Chia said yes.

Pastor Khong Jean Ai (sangha to be)

Jean Ai wishes to become a vessel that holds the teachings of Lama Tsongkhapa to benefit future generations, inspiring others to live by the Buddha’s teachings.

Jean Ai met His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche as a young child and through her parents' involvement with Kechara over the years, she has never known a life without His Eminence. Jean Ai was a regular volunteer of Tsem Ladrang during her childhood and teenage years. After graduating with a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Warwick in the UK and working at the London Probation Service, she returned to Kuala Lumpur to join Tsem Ladrang's e-division. There she managed kechara.com, responsible for the weekly Kechara e-newsletter, including content generation and editing. Since then she has joined His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche’s writing team, responsible for executing Rinpoche’s personal instructions and managing his correspondence.

Having visited a nunnery in India in 2004, Jean Ai remembers noticing how happy and purposeful everyone was. She had a feeling of familiarity and the sight of the robes comforted her. Immediately, Jean Ai messaged her mother who told her to ask Rinpoche’s advice. Rinpoche told her to complete her secular education so that when she taught the Dharma her words would carry the credibility and weight of a university degree, something she completed with the motivation that some day she wanted to become a nun.

Through her ordination as a nun, Jean Ai wishes to become a vessel that holds the teachings of Lama Tsongkhapa to benefit future generations, inspiring others to live by the Buddha’s teachings. Through this she hopes to repay the kindness of her parents and her Guru. Above all she wants to abide in a state free of suffering, and she wants this for others as well.

Pastor Shin Tan (sangha to be)

For Shin, this is a great step forward to being fully committed to the cause of others and repaying others’ kindness through sharing the Dharma with others.

Before joining Kechara, Shin worked as a lecturer and provider of content and e-learning content solutions for various start-ups. Whilst providing training to educators teaching students in English for Specific Purposes (ESP) at various colleges, she was invited to attend a Dharma talk given by His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche at Kechara House. This event rekindled her interest in Tibetan Buddhism, as she recalled the joy of accompanying her parents to teachings as a teenager.

Joining Kechara Media & Publications in 2006 as a volunteer, Shin assumed a full time position there as a Marketing Executive, with the aim of making His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche’s teachings available to more people around the world. Shin is now a member of the Tsem Ladrang Team, who takes care of His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche’s secular matters, enabling Rinpoche to focus on teaching the holy Dharma.

Shin states that when she decided to join Kechara full time, she had already decided to be of some benefit to others and spend the rest of her life doing only that. Working closely with His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche, seeing his tireless effort in helping others and spreading the Buddhadharma through the Gaden tradition despite tremendous challenges has made her realise that the next logical step is to become ordained as she has the opportune conditions to study with her Guru. For Shin this is also a great step forward to being fully committed to the cause of others and repaying others’ kindness through sharing the Dharma with others.

Pastor Adeline Woon (sangha to be)

Since finding her spiritual home here in Kechara, Adeline has made dharma work her life’s mission and wishes to dedicate herself fully towards the benefit of others.

Adeline stumbled across His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche's blog towards the end of 2010 and has been following his blog and Facebook page ever since. Since graduating from Dharma Drum Buddhist College Taiwan with a Masters of Arts in Religious Studies in July 2012, she returned to Malaysia and joined Kechara as a Senior Education Executive. Adeline was attracted by His Eminence’s straightforwardness and impressed at Kechara's growth under his guidance. To Adeline, His Eminence is someone who walks the talk, keeps his promises and sincerely cares for others displaying an excellent example of guru devotion, qualities that she seeks to develop herself.

Since finding her spiritual home here in Kechara, Adeline has made dharma work her life’s mission. It was in May 2013 that she officially requested His Eminence for ordination as a nun to dedicate her life fully for the dharma. According to Adeline, become ordained means that she is being true to her calling to live according to the dharma and be of benefit to others.

This however can only be achieved by meeting and studying under her root Guru. Adeline has been fortunate enough to have met with hers - His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche.

Pastor Niral Patel (sangha to be)

It is Niral’s motivation for full ordination to better himself, learn the teachings of our lineage in order to preserve them for future generations. He wishes to benefit others, just as he has benefited and is still benefiting from Tsem Rinpoche’s explanation of the Dharma.

Niral was born and raised in the UK, having graduated with a BA in Anthropology, he was working as a Financial Administrator for a Serviced Apartment & Hotel company as well as a Management Services company before stumbling across His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche’s Youtube channel, entirelyby accident. It was through His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche’s teachings that he began to understand the importance of practicing the Dharma, in order to benefit himself and others around him.

Having been in contact with one of Tsem Rinpoche’s long time students in the UK, he was encouraged to visit Kechara in late 2012 for a 10 day visit. At the end of the visit Tsem Rinpoche requested Niral to come to work at Kechara, to which he agreed.

Niral moved to Malaysia in February 2013 to work as an education coordinator at Kechara House, assisting the Education Division in the creation and implementation of the new education syllabus, teaching teenagers during the Kechara Sunday Dharma School. Ever since meeting Tsem Rinpoche, he has always been encouraged by Tsem Rinpoche to do more Dharma work and strive to better himself. It is with that in mind, that Niral has requested monastic ordination.

It is Niral’s motivation for full ordination to better himself, learn the teachings of our lineage in order to preserve them for future generations. He wishes to benefit others, just as he has benefited and is still benefiting from Tsem Rinpoche’s explanation of the Dharma.

Pastor Tan Gim Lee (sangha to be)

Gim Lee’s main focus is to guide and help anyone who steps through Kechara’s doors through Dharma sharing, counselling, performing pujas and other Buddhist services. She wishes to repay Rinpoche’s kindness by spreading Lama Tsongkhapa’s holy teachings and inspiring others on the spiritual path.

She discovered Kechara by chance in 2006 and started to participate Kechara's activities almost immediately especially the retreat to collect 10 million Migtsema recitations. In April 2006, when Gim Lee met H.E. Tsem Rinpoche and first listened to his teachings, she wept uncontrollably. Though she could not understand it at the time, she had finally found her perfect teacher. She is especially touched by Tsem Rinpoche's compassionate method of teaching by setting his own examples.

Having joined as a staff of Kechara House responsible for housekeeping in 2009, Gim Lee is now one of Kechara House's Front Desk Managers predominantly based in the retreat centre in Bentong, Pahang. She also teaches the Sunday Dharma Class and moderates Dharma discussions on Tsem Rinpoche's blog chat.

The many teachings she has received from Tsem Rinpoche have changed her priorities in life. She found answers to her questions about the purpose of life, and she has realised that the way to overcome the sufferings of pain and anger is by following the path of compassion and wisdom as taught by Lord Buddha. These realisations have led to her request to be ordained as a Sangha member.

As pastor now, and later as a Buddhist nun, Gim Lee's main focus is to guide and help anyone who steps through Kechara's doors through Dharma sharing, counselling, performing pujas and other Buddhist services. She wishes to repay Rinpoche's kindness by spreading Lama Tsongkhapa's holy teachings and inspiring others on the spiritual path.

Pastor Loh Seng Piow (sangha to be)

Loh Seng Piow developed a strong wish to help Rinpoche in spreading the Dharma to the world. With that determination, Loh Seng Piow chose not to pursue his PhD degree in Cambridge University (for which he had been offered a place), resigned from his research job, and joined Tsem Rinpoche as full-time Dharma worker, and has never looked back since.

Back in 2001, Loh Seng Piow had no inkling of just how involved in Dharma he would become. As a Masters degree-holder in Engineering, Loh Seng Piow was working as a research engineer in Singapore when he met His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche. Rinpoche’s talk left a strong impression on him and after a few encounters with Rinpoche, Loh Seng Piow started developing websites for Rinpoche and Kechara.

Loh Seng Piow was trained in science, but soon realised that there were many questions that science could not answer. At the same time, he also felt that science and technology are not the solution to human problems, as humans are much better off compared to thousands years ago, yet the problems in this world are still the same, if not more, and we do not seem to be happier than our ancestors.

Loh Seng Piow soon realised that the Dharma is the ultimate solution to human problems, and that the methods used by His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche are very suitable for this modern era. Loh Seng Piow developed a strong wish to help Rinpoche in spreading the Dharma to the world. With that determination, Loh Seng Piow chose not to pursue his PhD degree in Cambridge University (for which he had been offered a place), resigned from his research job, and joined Tsem Rinpoche as full-time Dharma worker, and has never looked back since.

Meeting Rinpoche was a very refreshing experience for Loh Seng Piow, as he never knew Dharma could be so unconventional yet maintain its essence. As Rinpoche’s personal attendant, Loh Seng Piow has had many incredible moments with Rinpoche and considers himself extremely fortunate because he sees real Dharma in action, both on and off the throne. It challenges him to practice Dharma 24/7. In this way, Rinpoche has blown away his old and persistent way of thinking, which was very much focused on the outer rituals of Dharma.

Having seen that Tsem Rinpoche truly embodies what he teaches, Loh Seng Piow is convinced beyond doubt that it is possible to develop our minds to a higher state, and ultimately achieving enlightenment. All these factors have propelled Loh Seng Piow to take a step further in his Dharma career to become ordained as a pastor in order to be even more effective in sharing and disseminating the Dharma to benefit others.

Pastor Yek Yee

Naturally an introvert, Yek Yee has transformed what was once her weakness into her strength; making what was once impossible now eminently possible.

Independence was forced upon Kok Yek Yee from the tender age of nine, when she had to juggle between work and school to make ends meet. Always the introvert, Yek Yee had few friends and had difficulty expressing herself. So it was unexpected when she chose a career in journalism.

Yek Yee excelled as an award-winning reporter with Guang Ming Daily and Nanyang Siang Pau. Her articles garnered her a fanbase, and in writing, she found an outlet for the thoughts and feelings that she could not verbalise. However, despite her success, Yek Yee was not satisfied. Temporary happiness was not what she was looking for – success, money, relationships, or fame was not the key.

In her search for happiness, Yek Yee met H.E. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche, who told her “don’t retaliate with your speech, but use your power of writing to express yourself”. This led her to join Kechara Media & Publications as a writer; subsequently she was appointed Senior Editor as well as a Liaison to His Eminence.

Yek Yee now holds a core role in Kechara Care, giving advice, tours, counseling and teachings to whoever walks through their doors. Through courage and determination, she has transformed what was once her weakness into her strength; making what was once impossible now eminently possible.

As a Pastor, her patience and open-mindedness developed through her journey with Kechara will bring comfort and solace, and her new-found ability to nurture and teach others will bring hope to many.

Pastor Lanse Chiah

Having been a Pastor for a year, Lanse wishes to continue with her integral duties by renewing her vows again.

Lanse graduated with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) from Jinan University in Guangzhou, China in 1999 and became a part-time lecturer for several years, teaching western medicine in a Traditional Chinese medical college in Kuala Lumpur.

For a long time, Lanse remained an atheist, subconsciously searching for a spiritual guru as she sought answers to questions she harboured in her mind, questions that had led her into a state of depression during her time at university. As such, she would often read philosophical books in her search for answers.

Lanse first came to know of Kechara in 2007, through her friend of over 10 years, Pastor Yek Yee. She was surprised to see a complete transformation in Pastor Yek Yee, whom she had always known as a non-spiritual person. The first book by Kechara that Lanse chanced upon was the Chinese version of Be Greedy. Naturally, Lanse was skeptical at first, thus she read the book in an attempt to find mistakes with the philosophy. However, she couldn’t find any and was left impressed by how logical the explanations in the book were.

In March 2009, Lanse joined Kechara Media & Publications (KMP) part-time to carry out Chinese translation and help with transcription. The following year, she contemplated upon whether to pursue a full-time medical or a Dharma career, finally deciding on the latter. Lanse came to realise that, although both careers share the same motivation of easing people’s sufferings, she felt that her work in Dharma could lead to a greater contribution for the sake of all sentient beings in a deeper, spiritual sense.

Having been a Pastor for a year, Lanse wishes to continue with her integral duties by renewing her vows again.

Pastor Han Nee

It was not until she witnessed how Rinpoche brought peace and comfort to her dying mother, that she realised she also wanted to touch others with the Dharma.

Lim Han Nee, a mother of two, is a retired secondary school principal. She retired in December 2000 after a 30-year career in education. She obtained her Master’s Degree in Education at Leicester University in the UK, at the end of 2001.

After gaining her master’s degree, Han Nee considered further options of embarking on a doctorate in education or spending her years in retirement, travelling and visiting family. At the same time, she was also in search of her spiritual path. She had begun exploring Theravadan and Chinese Mahayana Buddhism for answers to questions she had.

In December 2004, Han Nee attended a teaching retreat on the topic of the Lamrim and White Tara held by His Eminence Gelek Rinpoche. As the retreat proceeded, she found her questions were being answered. Then in June 2005, Han Nee was introduced to Kechara by her sister, where she met her spiritual guide, His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche, who has recently told her that she must go all the way in the Dharma for the benefit of others.

Han Nee had been a school guidance counsellor for nearly twenty years. However, it was not until she witnessed how Rinpoche brought peace and comfort to her dying mother, that she realised she also wanted to touch others with the Dharma.

A member of Kechara’s Puja Team, who conduct sponsored pujas in Shabten Khang, Han Nee is also a member of the Education Division with the portfolio of Content Development. Apart from this, Han Nee is also a member of the weekly Kechara Chat Time team.

Pastor David Lai

In 2014, with a sincere wish to benefit others, David decided to be ordained as a Buddhist pastor to continue serving the spiritual needs of the organisation.

David Lai has been a student of His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche for over a decade now and was one of the founding members of Kechara. He joined Kechara as a full time staff in 2005 and has been working in various departments beginning with the Kechara Paradise outlets.

Right from the beginning, David had been advised by His Eminence to go into writing. Overcoming various hurdles, David finally began his literary career with the publication of his first book and autobiography, There’s No Way But Up in 2009. The book charts his spiritual journey from his childhood and culminates in the meeting with His Eminence.

The positive feedback from this book led him to write various other publications like Vajrayogini and Other Power Places in Nepal – a pilgrim’s guide of Nepal, Tales My Lama Told Me – a book on short stories and Conversations in Love – a book on relationships. These books continue to inspire and bring people onto the Dharma.

Besides writing, David has found his passion in sharing the Dharma since his earlier days working in the Kechara Paradise outlets. Over the years, David has received innumerable teachings from His Eminence, ranging from public teachings to personal instructions and advice. He is known to passionately share these teachings whenever he can and to whomever he meets. In 2014, with a sincere wish to benefit others, David decided to be ordained as a Buddhist pastor to continue serving the spiritual needs of the organisation.

Pastor Henry Ooi

After following Rinpoche as a Dharma student for all these years, learning and practicing the Dharma, Henry knows the importance of the pastors’ role in Kechara founded by Rinpoche. He wants to become a pastor to serve Rinpoche, to serve Kechara, and to serve the public.

Born in 1952 in Penang, Henry moved to Kuala Lumpur in search of work after he finished his Form Five studies in 1969. He worked at different types of jobs and it was when he was jobless in 1997/8 that he met His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche at the house of his cousin, Ruby (now Dato’ Ruby Khong), when Rinpoche was giving a dharma teaching. At that teaching Henry was awed by how Rinpoche taught Dharma with simple yet profound explanations.

With the kind guidance, teachings and Dharma practices by Rinpoche including instruction to engage in their first spiritual retreat, Henry and his wife Angel started a small business that soon became profitable. A few years later after Kechara House Buddhist Association was founded, Rinpoche started to enrol students as liaisons and that was when Henry and Dato’ Ruby offered themselves. Later more students were elected as liaisons that saw the birth of Liaisons Council. The Liaisons Council is now known as the Board of Directors of which Henry is one of its members.

Currently Henry is the Project Director, overseeing the construction and completion of projects in the Kechara Forest Retreat. Prior to this appointment he was the Head of Department in Kechara Paradise retail outlets of which he served for about ten years. He still remains as its company director as well as director for most of the companies within Kechara. He served one term as vice president of Kechara House Buddhist Association from 2012 to 2103.

After following Rinpoche as a Dharma student for all these years, learning and practicing the Dharma, Henry knows the importance of the pastors’ role in Kechara founded by Rinpoche. He wants to become a pastor to serve Rinpoche, to serve Kechara, and to serve the public. As he aspires to be a monk as he grows older, being a pastor of Kechara will pave the way for his aspiration. Henry believes that as one gets older in life, one should have already prepared for the imminent, death. And what a beautiful death it will be, to die in Kechara Forest Retreat in a monk’s robes. This is the kind of death that Henry wants. But before the imminent death happens, Henry wants to continue working in Kechara Forest Retreat, serving the community and whoever comes into it in whatever way he can. And when he is not physically anymore to serve others, he will request instructions from Rinpoche to enter into retreats in Kechara Forest Retreat.

Pastor Patsy Gooi

All that Patsy wants now is to spend the rest of her life doing dharma work, dharma practices and being of benefit to others.

Formerly a full time housewife with plenty of free time, Patsy had the great fortune to visit Gaden Monastery and meet H.E. Tsem Rinpoche almost twenty years ago. That one week stay in the monastery changed her view of life. Prior to that, she had no spiritual inclinations but meeting Rinpoche stirred something inside her, and she realised that there was more to life than just eating, sleeping, shopping and having fun. Rinpoche’s approach to dharma was logical and practical but most importantly, he stressed that we should always focus out and work towards benefitting others. Rinpoche made dharma easy to understand and his advice was and still is, to “change inwardly, not outwardly.”

In 2009, after years of practicing and applying what she had learned from Rinpoche’s teachings, Patsy decided to set up a Kechara retail outlet in Penang to share the dharma with others. She knew that Rinpoche’s teachings were very applicable to the people of our time and that his activities would benefit others just as they had benefited her. She also wanted to repay the kindness of her Guru who had constantly helped and guided her. Today, Kechara Paradise Penang is not just a dharma shop but also organises puja sessions, animal liberation and dharma talks.

In 2010, again with Rinpoche’s blessings, Patsy set up the Kechara Soup Kitchen Activity Center in Penang. Saddened to see the plight of the homeless and urban poor on the streets, Patsy decided to practice “compassion through action” as taught by Rinpoche in the most active way she knows. Today, together with her team of volunteers, Patsy feeds the homeless and urban poor four times a week and provides basic food provisions to many hardcore poor families on a monthly basis.

All that Patsy wants now is to spend the rest of her life doing dharma work and dharma practices, and that she may be of benefit to others.

Pastor Albert Ratchaga

In 2008, Albert Ratchaga began working as a part timer in Kechara Paradise, but as he learned more about the works of Rinpoche and Kechara, Rinpoche’s kindness and compassion touched him deeply. He realised that his work gave his life more meaning and decided to join Kechara full time.

Through his work as a sales executive, Albert was able learn more Dharma from Rinpoche's teachings and use this wisdom to assist those who entered his store to overcome their problems, thus improving their lives.

Albert soon developed a deep wish to follow in Rinpoche’s footsteps and in 2016 was ordained as a Pastor to continue benefitting and serving others.

    Tibetan pujas, a devotional ritual, offers numerous benefits, including healing, protection, wealth, wisdom, and spiritual growth. It fosters a deeper connection with the divine, promotes inner peace, and can help purify the environment and can lead to a closer connection with enlightenment. They are a way to purify negative karma, remove obstacles, and accumulate merit. Pujas can also help with mental and emotional well-being, reducing stress, anxiety, and pain. Ultimately, they are a powerful tool for spiritual development and can lead to a closer connection with enlightenment. Puja can be a powerful tool for fostering a sense of gratitude and devotion. Reading this clear and simple explanation in this article will help more and more people to understand better.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing.

    In Tibetan Buddhism, refuge and the guru are closely intertwined. Taking refuge in the three jewels expresses the most fundamental connection to Buddhism. Having confronted the limitations of samsara, we are ready for a change. Taking refuge involves seeking protection and guidance from the Buddha, Dharma, and Sangha, with the guru often seen as a living embodiment of these three jewels. The guru’s role is to guide practitioners towards enlightenment by pointing them to the path and helping them overcome obstacles. Refuge is not merely a symbolic act but a deep commitment to transforming one’s mind and life by relying on these sources of inspiration and guidance. Taking refuge doesn’t protect us from problems such as illness, accidents, and other difficulties. Rather, it provides us with knowledge to transform obstacles into opportunities. We learn how to relate to difficulties in a new way, and this protects us from confusion and despair. Reading again to understand better .
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing .

    Reading through this blog of what life was like for Pastor Jean Ai, during lockdown. The Movement Control Order which began in 2020 reminded me of how I went through during the lock down. Staying alone by myself as the rest of my family member outstation in KL. Not easy after all everything as such as getting foods etc. I do my shopping twice a week having doing all the necessary disinfection and so on. What I did at home during the lock down and how I spent my time, days indeed not easy Do reading, watching videos at Tsem Rinpoche blog , learning and practicing and in-fact did full prostration and mantras recitation daily . It had changed my life since then and had completed 100k . Through a Dharma brother I managed to get hold of some mantras for rolling too. Interesting,…..watching Pastor Jean Ai’s video at how she interact with friends that’s awesome.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Jean Ai for this interesting sharing.

    n Tibetan Buddhism, prostrations are a way to express deep respect and devotion to the Three Jewels for the Buddha, his teachings (Dharma), and the spiritual community (Sangha). Prostration is a physical act of deep reverence or worship, which offers a range of benefits across spiritual, physical, and mental domains. It can be a form of prayer, a means of expressing devotion. It is a deeply symbolic act that purifies negative actions, accumulates merit, and cultivates humility and compassion. It can be a form of prayer, a means of expressing devotion. This act is believed to be beneficial for practitioners, cultivating humility, eliminating negative thoughts, and accumulating positive karma which is believed to lead to positive future outcomes and spiritual progress. Whether we believe in karma or not, our negative karma increases without purification. Hence its important , to purify our negative karma through the Vajrasattva and prostrations practice. It also seen as a way to purify our negative mind, emotions and thought patterns, such as pride and ego if we do it well . Thus, the practice of purification is one of the most important solutions to our problems and is extremely necessary for everyone of us. It is more important to put our everyday life’s effort into the practice of purification to attain spiritual realization.
    The Vajrasattva purification practice, which is more powerful than negative karma. With this practice can prevent us from experiencing the problems that negative karma would otherwise bring us. Reciting the Vajrasattva mantra before going to bed to prevent whatever negative karma we have created that day from multiplying it is an incredibly powerful method that it makes our life very light and easy and keeps us happy and peaceful in our inner life.
    Both Vajrasattva practice and prostrations done with good visualizations are indeed very beneficial for practitioners.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing and teachings .

    Du Fu (712-770 AD), also known as Tu Fu, was a prominent Chinese poet of the Tang Dynasty, often considered one of the greatest alongside Li Bai. He was a poet-historian and a poet-sage, known for his realistic depictions of human suffering and reflections on the troubled times of his era. His poems, reflecting his personal experiences and the political instability of the time, have had a lasting impact on both Chinese and Japanese literary traditions.
    Interesting read.

    H H Kyabje Pabongka Dechen Nyingpo is by far one of the most popular and influential Gelug religious figures of the 20th Century. One of Phabongkha’s most important aristocratic students, Lhalu Lhacham Yangdzom Tsering relationship to her teacher and his lineage teachings goes along way .She is famously remembered for is her unwavering devotion towards her guru, HH Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche. Yangdzom Tsering’s Shatra family were ancient sponsors and students of the Gelug tradition and had apparently been patrons of Tsongkhapa the founder of the Gelug school. The life stories of Lady Lhalu Lhacham Yangdzom as mentioned by Joona Repo is indeed inspiring. How her life struggles with tragedies, and her devotion to dorje Shugden and the Gelug tradition throughout her life.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing of an inspiring lady.

    Looking at these pictures remained me of my first pilgrimage to Wu Tai San. With the blessings of our guru, we able to visit Wu Tai San a significant Buddhist pilgrimage site . In fact it never did come to my mind that I am fortunate given a chance to go as I am still very new then. Upon hearing about the pilgrimage I got myself register without much thought. The history and stories of Wu Tai San has inspired me to go there. Interesting the Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong of China are closely connected to WuTai San. Wu Tai San located in Shanxi Province, China renowned as the home of Lord Manjushri the bodhisattva of wisdom, with different emanations of the bodhisattva residing on each of the five peaks. The area is dotted with over 50 temples and monasteries, many of which are historical and architecturally significant. Those temples built over 7 dynasties housing numerous Buddhist relics. Wutai Shan also offers stunning scenery, including snow-capped peaks, forests, and streams. Wu Tai San is one of the four Sacred Buddhist mountains of China, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Wutai Shan was known to be a mystical and sacred site inhabited by divine spirits, accompanied by unusual events, such as miraculous light appearances at night.
    We visited all the Holy sites, making offerings and doing prayers at each sites. We even have the opportunity to collect holy stones for future statue insertion or to keep on our altars. Times flies as our pilgrimage ended with so many stories to share with the rest.
    Thank you Rinpoche and writes team sharing those pictures.

    Padmasambhava, the Lotus-born Guru, also known as Guru Rinpoche is a legendary tantric Buddhist master who is widely revered in Tibetan Buddhism. He is seen as the second Buddha particularly within the Nyingma .He was a legendary Indian Buddhist mystic credited with introducing Vajrayana Buddhism to Tibet in the 8th century. As found in Buddhist scriptures Padmasambhava birth is often associated with legends and prophecies. Interesting…… Padmasambhava is depicted with eight manifestations, each reflecting a different aspect of his miraculous activities. Interesting article .

    Milarepa Cave, situated high in the Himalayan mountain of Tibet, a sacred cave beckons pilgrims and spiritual seekers from across the globe. Milarepa Cave, a site of profound significance in Tibetan Buddhism, is merely a geological wonder. This sacred cave is also a living testament to the power of meditation and devotion. Its where an 11th-century yogi and poet who spent transformative years in solitary practice. Milarepa Cave graces Tibet’s rugged yet stunning landscapes, a region renowned for its deep spiritual heritage and breath-taking natural beauty. The cave’s importance is inseparable from a revered figure and the enduring legacy of Jetsun Milarepa a revered yogi and poet in Tibetan Buddhism. Milarepa Cave stands not just as a geological formation but as a powerful symbol of spiritual transformation and the enduring strength of Tibetan Buddhism. Reading this interesting cave had me Google for more information about this sacred cave. Numerous stories and legends surround Milarepa’s time in the cave, enhancing its mystical aura.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting post.

    I wanted to take a moment to share a recent experience with you regarding my Instagram account. Unfortunately, my account was hacked, which was both frustrating and disappointing. Losing access to something that plays a significant role in my business and personal connections was incredibly stressful.What made the situation even more challenging was discovering that Meta does not have a dedicated support team to assist users facing account compromises. With so many people experiencing this issue daily, it’s alarming that their recovery process is not more accessible or efficient.After numerous failed attempts to recover my account through Meta’s standard procedures, I was fortunate enough to get in touch with a member of the Meta recovery department, @Rothsteincode on X (formerly Twitter), and via email at rothsteincode@gmail.com Their expertise and guidance were invaluable, and thanks to their assistance, I was able to regain full access to my account.
    While I am incredibly grateful for their help, this experience has highlighted a major issue—Meta needs to implement better security measures and provide more reliable support for users dealing with these kinds of problems. The lack of direct customer support is unacceptable, considering how vital social media platforms have become for businesses and individuals alike.I wanted to share this with you in case you or anyone you know ever faces a similar issue. If you ever find yourself in this unfortunate situation, I highly recommend reaching out to @Rothsteincode for assistance. Hopefully, Meta will take action to improve their security policies and customer service in the near future.Thank you for taking the time to read this. Stay safe online, and let’s continue to support each other in this digital space.

    A great history of a great yogi which I do enjoy reading , reading over it again and again. Jetsun Milarepa was a famous Tibetan siddha, known as a murderer when he was a young man. Who later turning to Buddhism and becoming a highly accomplished Buddhist disciple. Generally considered as one of Tibet’s most famous yogis and spiritual poets, whose teachings are known among several schools of Tibetan Buddhism. Milarepa’s story is one of struggle, anguish, resolve, and triumph all of which make him recognizably. Practicing these teachings for many years in isolated mountain retreats in caves such as caves hidden deep in the mountains of Tsum Valley. That’s where Milarepa attained enlightenment and gained fame for his incredible perseverance in practice and for his spontaneous songs of realisation. Milarepa is said to be the first to achieve the state of Vajradhara in one lifetime. That’s incredible.
    Thank you Rinpoche for great sharing interesting read

    H.H Kyabje Zong Rinpoche was a Gelug Lama, a sharp analyst, master of philosophical debate and a Tantric practitioner. Kyabje Zong Rinpoche was a disciple of the third Trijang Rinpoche, junior tutor of the 14th Dalai Lama. Rinpoche was known as a strong, detached and wrathful lama having impeccable knowledge of all rituals, art and science. Thousands of Westerners have received and benefited from his teachings both in the West and in India and gave many empowerments and teachings as well. Kyabje Zong Rinpoche was renowned for his many actions of powerful magic . We are fortunate and blessed listening to the powerful voice of Kyabje Zong Rinpoche’s precious teachings as in this blog.

The Unknown

The Known and unknown are both feared,
Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

  • What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    8 years ago
    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
