Question asked by Alan

Will donations and prayers made on behalf of someone who passed away 10 years ago still be of benefit to them ?

Or is it only beneficial to them within 49 days of their death?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Alan,

    When prayers and virtuous activities are performed for someone who has passed away within the 49 day period, the main aim is to assist them take a fortunate rebirth. However even if a person has already taken rebirth, it is very good to dedicated prayers and virtuous actions for them. This will help to alleviate their suffering and problems in whatever form they have taken rebirth. This can also create a positive force, so that when they take rebirth again it will be in a fortunate form and environment. Ultimately, you should dedicate the prayers to them that they can have a rebirth in which they can continue their spiritual journey, which will lead them out of suffering completely.

Question asked by James

Hi Pastor,

This may sound like a silly question, please forgive me.

But i am curious to see what your views or Buddhist views on this is.

There are innumerable Buddhas, Bodhisattva, Deities that exists according to Buddhism. In the western world you have God, Jesus and the devil. And in other religions and beliefs (Hindu, Muslim etc) there are so many different gods. From my ignorant view, most belief systems are fundamentally based on faith or 'blind' faith, should i say.

If these 'gods' really existed and are real, why don't they appear or show themselves (in form) in our world? For example, why doesn't Buddha Shakyamuni appear in our world, or Jesus, or Muhammad?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear James,

    From a Buddhist viewpoint in regards to seeing the Buddhas themselves, the main factor here is karma. For example Buddha Shakyamuni was in human form, therefore we could have met him and received teachings from him directly, which would have greatly furthered our own spiritual practice. However most of us did not have the karma to be born as a human during his time or even in the land he lived. Similarly, many of us do not have enough merit to see the subtle Sambhogakaya forms of the Buddhas due to our negative karma. This can be achieved on the spiritual practice when one has purified enough negative karma and accumulated enough merit. At this point one can communicate directly with the Buddhas. Within Buddhism, Buddha Shakyamuni is not a god but a being who achieved the highest possibility and now transcends existence. This is a potential that each one of has, therefore we can achieve that same state if through spiritual practice.

    Through their compassion the Buddhas also manifest in Nirmanakaya form, which means that they take human form. These beings can be recognised, such as the ‘tulku’ tradition in Tibetan Buddhism, so that they can teach the Dharma. In other cases these emanations are not recognised formally as embodiments of the Buddhas. Therefore we can meet Buddhas and they do appear in our world, just not necessarily how we would “want” them to appear.

Question asked by Eli Levine

Good evening Pastors,

Losar tashi delek! I hope you're all well and safe wherever you each may be in the world.

I suppose the simplest way for me to say this, is that I'm tired of feeling like a cork on the ocean, unable to steer its own fate. I'm hoping to get into a doctorate program in Public Policy and Administration. I've already applied to all seven of the schools and I'm set to start hearing back from them sometime next week through into March. I've already been rejected by one of the seven schools. I feel as though life is acting like a giant bureaucracy; like I'm being shunted this way and that without any control or say in the matter. I feel like I do my best to file the correct paperwork, filled out correctly, to the right place, and at the right time, and that my petitions get rejected for one reason or another. I'm currently working as an AmeriCorps VISTA (it's like the Peace Corps, but it stays in the US). I've always prayed and hoped to do the best that I can, freely admitting that I do not know what is the best. Yet I've come to a point where I think I'd rather do what I want to do. I get that it was my actions which ultimately landed me in these sub-optimal positions throughout eons of past lifetimes. But I would LOVE to be able to get into a great school for Public Policy and Administration, have CHOICES about what I end up doing and not doing, and ultimately, lead the best possible life I can for myself and all other living beings on this planet and beyond. I was reading Atisha's "Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment", and one of the prerequisites for this path is to be in a place where one can be at peace and be happy and positively energized within the reason of temperament. I also have hung up a large picture of Medicine Buddha as the backdrop to my alter, which also includes Lama Tsongkhapa, Dorje Shugden, Zambala, a bright metal stupa with mantras inside, and an incense cone placed in front of the Buddhas. I'm not sure what else I can do other than maintain an abiding presence while I wait. Is there anything else I can do to improve my condition and be able to take control of my life for a change in a more noticeable manner?

I hope you all have a wonderful year of the Fire Monkey. Thank you.

    Dear Eli Levine,

    I would like to suggest that you engage in your daily practices strongly. You should engage in the practice of Lama Tsongkhapa’s Guru Yoga strongly. This will be very helpful to steel your mind to persevere in the face of obstacles. You are right, these obstacles or the situations we are placed in are created by our karma. If we do not have the strength to improve our conditions and battle through the difficulties, we allow this negative karma to win. If we let it, then we usually end up accumulating more negative karma.

    You should couple this with the practice of Dorje Shugden, which will help alleviate any obstacles and create conducive conditions. The main point here is to engage in these practices every day and you will definitely see improvements in your mind.

    If possible and you have time, perhaps you can also engage in a Dorje Shugden retreat. The instructions and retreat prayers can be found here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/dorje-shugden-retreat-a-powerful-practice-to-fulfill-wishes.html

    If you have the time you should also ready and study the Lamrim text Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand. Understanding the text will go a long way to gain control over your life situation.

Question asked by Tashi

Can one obtain siddhis through the recitation of mantra? Like a protector mantra? In particular , there are two mantra's of DS that can assist in this, though I'm uncertain what he would bestow. I would assume since he is the Wisdom Buddha Manjushri, it would only something that would benefit the practioner….secondly if per say a siddhi is granted, would that carry over to future lifetimes?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Tashi,

    Yes, siddhis can be attained through the recitation of mantra. One should engage in mantra recitation single-pointedly and siddhis can arise. You can gain siddhis from any of Dorje Shugden mantras, but you should concentrate on one mantra specifically during your mantra recitations.

    As siddhis or attainments arise from the mind within Buddhist practices, then yes, these siddhis can carry over into future lifetimes.

    You may be interested to watch the following video, which explains a little about where siddhis come from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4R_i-LtSjbs

Question asked by Negin Talebi

how will be the year of 2016 for business and money? My email is : negintalebi@gmail.com

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Negin Talebi,

    I am sorry but none of the Kechara Pastors are trained to make predictions of this nature as of yet. That being said, if you wish to have good business and money, depending on your karma, you can engage in the daily prayers to either Dzambala or Gyenze Dorje Shugden.

    The prayer to Dzambala can be found here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/prayers-and-sadhanas/sadhana-prayers.html#14

    The prayers to Gyenze Dorje Shugden can be found here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/prayers-and-sadhanas/dorje-shugden-gyenze-to-increase-life-merits-and-wealth.html

    Both prayers can be engaged in daily, and have the function of increasing both material and spiritual resources. Material resources refers to worldly livelihood, whereas spiritual resources refers to conducive conditions for spiritual practice.

    Alternative, you can either of these pujas sponsored for yourself or loved ones. They are available here:

Question asked by Andrew

Is there a incense offering prayer for Dorje Setrap that one could do daily just like there is one for Dorje Shugden?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Andrew,

    I have checked through our current translations of Setrap’s prayer text that we use in Kechara House, entitled Shartse’s Jewel. Unfortunately it does not include an incense offering prayer for Dorje Setrap.

Question asked by Harold Musetescu

There is a book titled "Oracles and Demons of Tibet" (1956) written by Rene De Nebesky-Wojkowitz.
He has done a full chapter on Dorje Shugden and on page 134 he states that the Gelugpa Tulkus that he contacted told he that Drakpa Gyelsen committed SUICIDE by stuffing a scarve down his throat. He killed himself as a result of his disgust of what was happening to him (murder attempts).
He told his students that he was going to kill himself and for them not to interfere.

It seem odd that there are two different stories about the death of Drakpa Gyelsen. One story is that he was MURDERED and one that he committed SUICIDE. This book was published in 1956 therefore the actual research was done in the early 1951's. There was no ban in those days and no hatred towards Dorje Shugden. This information came to him from 2 Gelugpa Tulkus.

Also this book was quoted by H.E. Tsem Rinpoche in his article abourt Namkar Barzin.

Pastor could you clear up this matter for me.

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Harold Musetescu,

    There are different stories relating to the death of Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen. We follow the particular lineage as taught to us, as with any practice within Buddhism. The particular lineage stating that Tulku Drakpa Gyalsten was murdered by being strangled by a khata stems from His Holiness Trijang Rinpoche, who received the practice from His Holiness Pabongkha Rinpoche. Trijang Rinpoche composed a very large text detailing Dorje Shugden’s history, function, enlightened nature and a whole host of prayers and rituals to preserve the practice, entitled Music Delighting the Ocean of Protectors. Within our lineage of practice, this text is the definitive source of information regarding Dorje Shugden.

    Different origin stories are not uncommon, but the end result is the same. Take the Buddha Tara for example. There are two origin stories regarding Tara. The first states she was a Bodhisattva who vowed to attain enlightenment in the form of a woman, after the comment was made that she should pray to become a man in her next lifetime to facilitate her enlightenment. Taking the vow, and practicing over many lifetimes she gained enlightenment while in a woman’s body. The second story states that Chenresig, full of enlightened compassion, saw the plight of sentient beings suffering in cyclic existence and began to cry. The tears formed a great lake, from which sprang the Buddha Tara who told Chenresig not to worry as she would help him alleviate the suffering of sentient beings.

Question asked by thank you kindly

Hi Pastor,

In Christianity from what i know, long story short, God cast the Devil and his fallen angels from heaven down to earth.
Good=Jesus, Bad=the Devil
what is Buddhist view of Jesus and the Devil.
In Buddhism belief/teachings is there an equivalent of the Devil (other names known as Satan, Lucifer) and his fallen angels? Are the numerous demonic spirits/entities/ghosts mentioned in the Sutras are just the Devil and his fallen angels?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Thank You Kindly,

    In Buddhism there is no belief in a God, as in the Christian sense, that is omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent. Buddhism does not believe in one supreme being. On the other hand Buddhism does not believe in the Devil either, which in the Christian sense is the embodiment of evil. Therefore there are no fallen angels in Buddhism either.

    All sentient beings within existence fall into the Six Realms, which are the God Realm, Demi-God Realm, Human Realm, Animal Realm, Ghost Realm and the Hell Realm. Each sentient being takes countless rebirths within these Six Realms, until achieving enlightenment. Once achieving enlightenment, in short, they are no longer bound to take rebirth in these realms.

    The numerous spirits/entities/ghosts mentioned in the Sutras, on the whole, are beings that have taken rebirth in the Demi-God and Ghost Realms. Sometimes these beings harass beings from other Realms, such as humans, due to strong impulses and karmic imprints from previous lives. In essence there are no sentient beings who are inherently evil, as “good” and “evil” are actually concepts that we mistakenly prescribe upon things. They do not exists inherently, we label things as good and evil. That is a reason why different cultures view different things as either good or evil.

    I hope this answers your question, please feel free to ask more.

Question asked by Alex

Dear Pastor,

I recently read an article Pastor David Lai wrote about a trip to China where H.E. Tsem Rinpoche raised a question as to 'why is Buddha Amitabha So Prevalent in China'? So, Rinpoche asked that this Buddha be researched and said that it would be interesting to know the reasons for Buddha Amitabha’s popularity in the China.
With no disrespect to his H.E. Tsem Rinpoche, I was surprise he knew little of Buddha Amitabha.
I was wondering why I couldn't find any articles about Buddha Amitabha Pureland on this website (prior to the one that was recently written by Pastor David).

I have been following Buddha Amitabha for a while now and in my personal option believe it is the most convenient, easiest, 'short cut' way to enlightenment/becoming a Buddha as appose to other methods. You essentially put your utmost faith and sincerity in believing Buddha Amitabha. The practice involves recitation of the name of Buddha Amitabha (to gain 'one-point mindfulness') where you can be reborn into his western pureland and escape the cycle of birth and death in ONE LIFE TIME. With the help/power of Buddha Amitabha (and the vow he has made in the past to rescue all sentient being who wish to be reborn in his western pureland), you can be reborn in the western pureland, no matter how heavy your karma is. You basically carry your karma with you to the western pureland where you are guaranteed to become a Buddha.

Other methods/practices rely on self power/self cultivation to escape from the cycle of birth and death and achieve enlightenment/Buddhahood, which is very very difficult to do in one life time. You are also not assured that through many lifetime of cultivation you can become a Buddha.

So i was curious to why Buddha Amitabha was not practiced by H.E. Tsem Rinpoche or in Tibetan Buddhism. Many great sages have preached this Buddha Amitabha's and it is mentioned many times in the sutras by Buddha Shakyamuni. In fact, Buddha Shakyamuni has specifically said of all methods he has taught (around 84,000 methods i believe), this is the 'Gem' of them ALL, especially for people of this day in age with low spiritual capacities.

I was thinking, why 'work' so hard by yourself, cultivation through many 'life times', to walk the 'path to enlightenment' by your own self and efforts before you can become a Buddha. Why not take the 'easy', 'lazy' way/road and be reborn into Buddha Amitabha where you are assured Buddhahood?

Now that this method is known, would more people follow it, including H.E. Tsem Rinpoche?

What are your thoughts on this?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Alex,

    You are right in your observation of Amitabha’s practice. In regards to your questions there are a couple of reasons why this form of practice may not be emphasised within certain lineages.

    For example, a person’s practices stem from what their Guru(s) gave them. Hence some people do not engage in the practice of Amitabha because this wasn’t a practice that their Guru’s told them to practice. As individuals with our own karma, each of us has affinity with various Buddha figures. The Guru would bestow practices to the student according to their affinity and various needs.

    Another possible reason is that there exist within Tibetan Buddhism, ways to achieve enlightenment within just one lifetime, hence one does not to wait until the time of death to be taken to Amitabha’s Pureland, and then practice from there. These practices belong to the Highest Yoga Tantra.

    That being said, the practice of Amitabha exists with the lineages of Tibetan Buddhism. In fact Amitabha is classed among a very important set of five Buddhas known as the Five Dhyani Buddhas that play an important role within Vajrayana Buddhism. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Pema Thinley

Dear Pastors:

I have been reading Lamrim currently. But one thing I got stuck with is that I have been just reading and getting some understanding. I have not gone deeper. So how do I go about it if i have to properly read lah? can I go chapter wise or Topic wise? would you please help me with it?

thank you _()_

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Pema Thinley,

    The Lamrim as texts are not meant simply for intellectual understanding. In fact they are meditational manuals and guides for living. The texts are arranged in the correct sequence of practice and contemplation, therefore you read from beginning to end without skipping. What is most important is that with each chapter, you must first understand it intellectually, then contemplate its meaning and finally apply it in your life. For example there are passages in the Lam Rim that mention in graphic detail the suffering faced by those reborn in hell due to their karma. These passages are meant to inform you of what the sufferings is like so you have a strong desire not to go to the hell realms, and also to motivate you to engage in actions that ensure you do not go to hell. For example, not to kill any sentient beings, or be involved in trades that include killing. From there you do the opposite, which is you treasure life, and you start becoming a compassionate person.

    This is just one example. There are many others. Rather than simply having an intellectual understanding however, the Lamrim is intended to be put into practice within your life. I hope this helps.

Question asked by Jason

Lately I have been doing mandala retreat… I have noticed that a string of bad luck has appeared a few days in to the retreat… I got in to two car accidents, got sick, lost important documents and broke my phone. All this happened within a span of two days. What the heck is going on

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Jason,

    We all have a lot of negative karma from previous lives that effect us in this life. When we engage in retreat, we begin to purify that karma. This can lead to the manifestation of small accidents and slight turbulence in your mind. This occurs as it is actually your karma that is being purified. The other benefit from retreats is the generation of merit.

    His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche has advised that when engaged in retreat, one should offer prayers to the Dharma Protectors, in an effort to minimize the physical effects of any purification. For example you can engage in the practice of Serkym, Praise and Mantra recitation of Dorje Shugden during every session, before the completion dedication. This will help to alleviate any obstacles you are facing.

    Therefore what you are facing is not bad luck per se, but the the purification of your karma. When these obstacles arise during your retreat, you should actually think strongly that your negative karma is being purified. Actually you should not consider it bad. As you are in retreat, especially if you include the aforementioned Protector prayers, these karmic effects are not usually that serious. If you have experienced two car accidents, got sick, lost important documents and broke your phone then you had the karma to do so. What is important to remember here is that these karmic potentials were already there, waiting to manifest. If this was left unpurified, the karma would have multiplied, therefore the physical effects of being in a car accident would have been much worse, for example you may have been seriously injured. I hope this explanation helps.

Question asked by Bryan

Dear Pastors,

i have a question regarding the incarnation of H.E. Tsem Rinpoche. If I'm not mistaken ,Magadha Sangmo was the 1st incarnation of Tsem Rinpoche. And Magadha Sangmo would arise as Dorje Shugden. So is it H.E Tsem Rinpoche = Dorje Shugden? Please clear off my queries. TQ

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Bryan,

    You are correct to say that Magadha Sangmo is a previous incarnation of His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche. Magadha Sangmo is also included in the incarnation lineage of Dorje Shugden according to one list recognised by past masters who were highly attained. However, that is not the only recognised list of Dorje Shugden’s past lives. There also exists other recognised incarnation lineages of Dorje Shugden that do not include Magadha Sangmo, for example one that begins with the Mahasiddha Virupa.

    It is not uncommon for enlightened minds to manifest in a number of emanations within the system of the Three Forms (Trikaya) concurrently. Neither is an enlightened being bound to a linear succession of incarnations, and it is not uncommon for two or more physical incarnations to exist within the same time period. For example, His Holiness the Dalai Lama is an emanation of Avalokiteshvara. And at the same time His Holiness the Karmapa is similarly recognised to be an emanation of Avalokiteshvara. To give another example, both the lines of the Sharmapas and Panchen Lamas are recognised to be emanations of the Buddha Amitabha.

    High lamas such as His Holiness Pabongka Rinpoche and His Holiness Zong Rinpoche were regarded as Heruka. And there are many more living examples of this phenomenon. Therefore it is just as likely that the mind stream that was Magadha Sangmo could emanate into different forms and bodies.

Question asked by Alex

Dear Paster,

From my limited understanding of the Dharma, the Buddha taught that EVERY sentient beings has within them an innate 'Buddha nature' or the original 'enlightenment state of mind'. Because of ignorants, delusions and attachments to 'dusts', we are unable to recover or see our 'true Buddha nature'. Only after practicing the Dharma and severing all anger, , greed, delusions and attachments, are we able to become enlighten and see our true 'Buddha nature'. I read that there is about 52 stages that a Bodhisattva has to pass through before they become a Buddha. Once you reach the 1st stage where you become an Arhat, you have escape the cycle of birth and death forever and can only progress upwards until you reach the stage of enlightenment/Buddha-hood.

There are many stages one must go through in reaching Buddha-hood. Once you become enlighten/ see your Buddha nature, that is it.

My question to you Pastor is, if originally all sentient beings process the 'Buddha nature', 'enlightened mind' and once you have that 'state', how is that NOW you have become 'unenlightened', born as a human, animal, spirit, celestial being etc. If every sentient being were originally Buddha’s, why is that we are no longer?

I guess what i am trying to understand is, how can you be born as a a human, animal, spirit, celestial being etc. if originally you were a Buddha or enlightened, but because of anger, , greed, delusions and attachments, you are ' no longer'.

I hope that makes sense, and I would much appreciate your thoughts about this.

Thank you kindly.

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Alex,

    You have asked a very philosophical question indeed, and one that I would not be able to answer fully in such a short space. Within Buddhism there are many thoughts on this. From what i have been taught, there is slight difference with how you have explained this.

    Yes, all of us have the Buddha nature within in us, but this does not mean to say that we were once Buddhas and now we are not. What this actually refers to is the innate potential in all of us to BECOME enlightened. All sentient beings have this innate potential. It is common to all sentient beings. This Buddha nature is “potential” which can come to fruition through our own efforts. It is not therefore that we were all Buddhas. It is described as “Buddha nature” to inspire us, to motivate us and for us to realise this potential.

    Dear Pseudonimo,

    Thank you for your post. This section is actually answered by the Kechara Pastors. I would advise that you engage in the practice of the Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa. This practice can help to calm your mind in preparation for your exams. Here a link to the commentary by His Eminence 25th Tsem Rinpoche: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/me/tsongkapas-daily-practice-video-commentary.html

    This practice also invokes upon the energies of Manjushri which is very good for those studying and taking exams.

    You can add prayers to Dorje Shugden after the Guru Yoga to help eliminate any obstacles in your path. I would suggest adding the Invocation, Serkym, Mantra and Praise to Dorje Shugden.

Question asked by Curious

I think if we choose not to seek rebirth, it is very difficult and can only be achieved by monks. Lay people like us will always be reborn unless we know how to chant all the mantras and perform rituals as a way of life. Just doing dharma work won't help us much. What's your opinion?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Curious,

    You are right that it can be easier for ordained monks and nuns to achieve enlightenment faster than lay people. This is because they are holding their vows and can spend all their time in learning and practicing the Dharma without having deal with the issues surrounding normal lay life.

    However, the achievement of enlightenment is also possible for those of us who are not ordained. If you are involved in Dharma work this is a very good start as you have made the compassionate commitment to engage in work that benefits other beings. This in itself creates a lot of merit and purifies the negative effects of karma, both of which can facilitate realizations, as long as you have the right motivation. You see, the practice of Dharma is more than just ritual prayers and mantras, it is actually the transformation of the mind. Rituals and prayers can help facilitate this.

    To transform the mind, one must study, learn and then practice what has been taught by the Buddha and great masters of the past. When we do this, we can definitely end the process of rebirth. This is what the Buddha taught, not only just for those who are ordained but for lay people as well. There are many stories of lay people ending cyclic rebirth and gaining enlightenment. In fact many of the 84 Mahasiddhas of Ancient India were not in fact ordained monks and nuns but lay practitioners.

Question asked by Jason

on the blog you mentioned that there are many lines of tara practice. the two indian ones and many terma lines. My question is which line is more accurate or to be more exact which one is the one the buddha taught. Why are there so may lines? why are there so many mantras for the same bodhisattva, is one mantra better than the other. If the mantra is given by the buddha or the bodhisattva shouldn't the mantras be the same why so many variations. (Are the variations a corruption of the dharma).

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Jason,

    You are right, there are many lines of Tara practice. The reason why there are many lines is because Tara, as an enlightened being, manifests her practice is different ways to suit the abilities, needs and collective karma of practitioners in slightly different ways. If you can trace the practice back to an authentic source, i.e. Buddha Shakyamuni, and the lineage of practice is intact, the practice will definitely have benefit. The mantras will also be just as effective as each other, they are all emanations of Tara in the form of sound.

    For example, when we talk about Tara we are most commonly referring to Green Tara. However there are many other forms of Tara such as White Tara, Yellow Tara, Red Tara, etc. In fact there is a famous Praise to the 21 Taras, which lists 21 different forms of the Buddha Tara. It is on the Prayers and Sadhana page. Here is the link: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/prayers-and-sadhanas/sadhana-prayers.html#17

    However, if there is a break in the lineage, and you cannot trace the source of the practice, then most likely there would be some corruption of the Dharma. That is why at the beginning of any teaching, the Lama or teacher will always explain the lineage of the teachings. This is to show that the practice is indeed an authentic Buddhist practice, as well as to invoke the blessings of the particular lineage of practice.

Question asked by nicholas Ngo

Dear Pastor,
My name i Nicholas Ngo, for the last 19 years I have been having troubles with ghosts or entities. Most people would perceive their actions as negative, I do also, but the more I think about the events which have taken place, they all lead to me being a better person spiritually.

I dont know if my thinking is correct. Just about every night for the past few months, they stand at my window, these snake entities and some which look nothing like anything I have ever seen before, and tap on the glass. When the lights are completly out and I am ready for bed, they immediatly come in and stand on top of me, waving their hands about very quickly. From there hands comes a spiral of what looks like a brown smoke which quickly fills the room untill I can not see anything in front of me.

It doesnt affect me too much, it sometimes makes me extremly tired, and I can get grumpy, but it affects my girlfriend much more. She becomes someone else, really child like in her arguments and mean.

I dont know how to deal with this situation anymore, I have had to walk away from everybody because overnight my mother would suddenly hate me, my ex wife divorced me etc.. I only have 1 person in my life and I dont know whether that will be there for any time either.

Is there any advice you can offer me?

Thanks you in advance,

    Dear Nicholas Ngo,

    From what you have described it sounds like you are being disturbed by spirits. There are many reasons why this could have occurred, and it has being going on for a very long time.

    My suggestion would be to engage in the practice of Trakze Dorje Shugden. This form of Dorje Shugden is well known to dispel the disturbances caused by spirits. It would be best if you could engage in the practice every day. The key to any Buddhist practice is perseverance, but this practice will bring you great benefit. All you need to know about this practice has been shared on this blog by His Eminence 25th Tsem Rinpoche. Here is the link: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/trakze-to-dispel-black-magic-spirits.html

    Please engage in the practice. If you do not see improvement after a while, please write again here.

Please support us so that we can continue to bring you more Dharma:

Meet the Pastors

Serving the community. Tirelessly

Combining the responsibilities of the ordained and the appearance of a layperson, pastors are the connection between the sangha and the everyday practitioner. They are ordinary people who have taken an extraordinary step in dedicating their lives towards sharing the Buddhist tradition. As laypeople holding vows, pastors will make the Dharma accessible to more people, giving them guidance and sharing knowledge. The pastors are usually present at Kechara House and available for consultation anytime. For more information, contact house@kechara.com.

Pastor Chia (sangha to be)

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.

    Revisit this interesting story of the headless nun. One of Canadian New Brunswick’s oldest ghost stories is the headless Catholic nun. Set in the wooded trails of French Fort Cove, about a French nun name Sister Marie who was decapitated by sailors trying to find buried treasure. According to folklore she had buried settler valuables and money in a secret location for safekeeping as entrusted. Sailors pressured her for the treasure’s location and she refused and she was beheaded. As the story goes that her spirit is said to forever roam the woods searching for her head. Scary lool.
    The ghost of Sister Marie has been haunting French Fort Cove since than for more than 200 years.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing

    We must have faith and confidence in our Guru. A guru is not someone who holds a torch for us, but someone who guides us to the light. A guru takes a hand, opens a mind, and touches our heart. Never deceive our Guru. Our Guru’s inspiration and strength have been the foundation of our learning. On this sacred day we express our eternal gratitude to our Guru. We should constantly keep our Guru in our heart, remembering his teachings, learning, practicing and transforming our mind.
    Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands

    Have not heard of this Cowichan Tribes till I read this post. Revisit again to understand better. They are a group of Coast Salish peoples who live in the Cowichan Valley region on Vancouver Island. They were is the largest First Nations band in British Columbia, with about over 5,500 members. Interesting the discovery of the mysterious ape-like creature in the remote arecalled by the Cowichan tribes as Thumquas. Its also known as Bigfoot to many. Many sightings of this mysterious creature has been part of the Cowichan tribes traditions and history of the tribes. Sightings of these creatures are mainly found in Canada and in USA region and footprints as well. The biologically rich Cowichan Valley and Cowichan Lake areas are frequent hubs for modern sightings and legends. Interesting read and some new information for me.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Learning is a continuous, lifelong journey of discovery. It is not about simply memorizing facts, but actively engaging with the world, making mistakes, and adapting. Its good to stay active, learning new things and maintaining social connections. Hence its wonderful that Anila and Uncle Eddie got the opportunity to learn using lab-top gifted to them by Rinpoche. We are never too old to learn a new skill, do whatever we could to preserve mental and physical well-being.
    Thank you Rinpoche.

    My name is Bocheng Mei. I am 26 years old, from Toronto working in the software industry. For years I used to think luck was a word meant for other people Not for someone like me. My life was a cycle of unpaid bills, late night shifts and the constant, heavy feeling that I was sinking every week, i;d spent my last coin on lottery tickets, praying for a door to open. but the doors stayed shut, My friends told me to give up. Winning the lottery seemed like a distant dream. But then everything changed, I heard about Dr marcus i didn’t just want numbers, i wanted a shift in my life. I reached out, and from our very first conversation he told me that my spiritual channels were blocked by years of doubt. He performed a special ritual for me, a spell designed to align my energy with the frequency of abundance. before casting the spell for the lottery. he gave me the numbers and told me ( the universe wants to give to you, but you must be ready to receive) i walked into the store to buy my ticket, i didn’t feel desperate i felt certain. I picked the numbers he gave me. I was shocked when I got a call from an unknown number, a representative from the Ontario lottery and gaming corporation that I have won $60,000,000. Because of this man Mr Marcus and the power of his work, my closed doors didn’t just open they were blown off their hinges. today my family is safe. my debts are gone. If you feel like your luck has run out, remember my story. There is a way to change your destiny, and for me, that way was Dr Marcus. After staying persistent and finally seeing the right numbers come up that dream became a reality. The experience has completely transformed daily life and opened up new opportunities for the future. It serves as a reminder of how quickly circumstances can change. Now look… I will be honest with you all. I really didn’t want to do this. I wanted to keep this secret to myself, but my conscience is nagging at me. I see some of you out there, I see that same look of struggle I used to have in my own eyes. It would be selfish of me to keep this miracle behind a locked door while you are still searching for a key. so for the sake of those who are truly desperate, those who are tired of losing, and those who need a real breakthrough… I’m dropping it. for those who are ready to change there storyline and looking forward to become a winner you can reach out to Dr Marcus on whatsapp +2348110492028 or find him at ( drmacusspellcaster@gmail.com )

    Wat Phra Dhammakaya is a Buddhist temple in Khlong Luang district, a province north of Bangkok, Thailand. Founded in 1970 by the maechi Chandra Khonnokyoong and Luang Por Dhammajayo. Wat Phra Dhammakaya is the best-known and the fastest growing temple of the Dhammakaya tradition with a iconic dome-shaped Cetiya. Amazing it can housed millions and hundreds of Buddha statues interior and outside. Wat Phra Dhammakaya is best known for its immense size and modern design. Because of the sheer size temple, it will be impossible for visitors to explore the whole place in a day. Once a lifetime for anyone to meditate with hundreds of thousands of other people and the world has ever seen.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this post.

    Yamdrok Lake is shaped like a coral branch is one of the three sacred lakes in Tibet. Located near Nagarze County,Tibet above 4,441 meters. Due to the mythological surrounding by many snow-capped mountains and with numerous small streams ,forms a beautiful sacred lake. One of the belief that it is a transformation of a goddess. Many pilgrims and tourist visited this lake yearly. It’s a once a life time experience. I am fortunate to have a visiting this sacred lake years back.

    nspiring read. Lama Tsongkhapa an influential Tibetan Buddhist monk, philosopher and tantric yogi. Its Lama Tsongkhapa’s activities led to the formation of the Gelug school of Tibetan .He fully dedicated to teaching, writing , founding many monasteries that greatly contributed to the revitalization of Buddhism in Tibet. He even undertook many long retreats, received vision of Nagarjuna and his five chief disciples. And gained direct realization on the ultimate truth, which he soon wrote the famous ‘Praise to Shakyamuni Buddha’. In another retreat he had vision of all Masters profound’ lineages from Buddha Shakyamuni to Atisha. Inspiring read of Lama Tsongkhapa who did four-year tantric retreat, he even performed 3,500,000 prostrations and 1,800,000 mandala offerings. It was Je Tsongkgapa that emphasis the importance of the preliminary practices.
    Thank you for this interesting and inspiring post.

    The Yeti is a legendary, mythical creature deeply rooted in the folklore Himalayan regions of Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet and the Everest region. Since the 20th century, there’s many sightings of yeti footprints in the region. Back in April 2019, the Indian Army found footprints near the Makalu Base Camp. They claimed that those footprints belonged to the mythical Yeti. There is no confirmed scientific proof that the Yeti exists as an undiscovered species. I truly believed it exist. Despite centuries of stories, giant footprint claims, there is no scientific evidence that it physically exists. Climbers and local guides across the Himalayas has reported they did witnessed footprint too. Interesting read.
    Thank you Rinpoche.

    Inspiring read of all the stories of Tibetan Buddhist nuns at Gebchak Gonpa. Located in a remote mountain valley of Nangchen in the Qinghai Province of Eastern Tibet. Gebchak nunnery is where dozens of branch nunneries scattered throughout the region. It is the home of a spiritual lineage of female practitioners, yogini, a nunnery of 350 nuns. It is situated in a high, isolated valley on the Tibetan Plateau which is about 14,100 feet above sea level. Nangchen is an area within the historical Tibetan region of Kham. It has been praised by many great Buddhist masters for its rigorous training in Dzogchen meditation and yogic practices. They are well respected throughout the region for their intensive retreat system.
    Interesting read.
    Thank you Rinpoche.

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.

    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
