Question asked by Dietrich

Who is the spiritual successor of H.
E. TSEM TULKU Rinpoche?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Deitrich,

    Tsem Rinpoche set up the Kechara Buddhist Organisation in such as way that there is no singular spiritual successor. The secular aspects of the organisation are run by a managament committee, where as the spiritual side is handled by the Sangha/Pastors that Rinpoche trained for spiritual matters. We are also aided by many high lamas, senior geshes and monks of our lineage for spiritual matters. Thank you.

Question asked by anônimo

Hello! I'm starting to make offerings now and I have some questions:
1. I am offering incense on top of a pot of rice, would it be wrong to throw this rice in the trash when exchanging it? If so, what should I do with this rice?
2. If I offer my mala, can I no longer use it?
3. Can I make an offering to a Buddha image I made myself?

Thank you!

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Anonimo,

    1. No there is nothing wrong with throwing the rice away, because it is just something you are offering the incense on top of. However, traditionally, you can actually just burn the incense on top of the ash from previous incense. This will allow the incense to actually burn when you light it instead of using rice. But of course this is a little bit more messy and you will need to clean around it regularly if the ash falls out, etc.

    2. You can keep your mala on your altar no problem. Use it when you are doing your prayers and then put it back on your altar. If you actually offer your mala as an offering, then better not to use it as a normal mala. Keep it on the altar as a fixed offering.

    3. Yes you can make offerings to the Buddha image you made yourself, that is not an issue at all. If you can, then you can bless your image yourself also, then when you make offerings, you know for sure that the enlightened beings are there in the image that you made. Here is the link of how to do it: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/prayers-and-sadhanas/how-to-bless-buddha-images-yourself.html

    Hopw all of this helps! Thank you.

Question asked by Om

Hello pastor,
After a long time I am back to this website hope you are doing well and fine. Since i am always busy fighting with my bad lucks couldn't log in. My day always begin with prayers but my bad karma is too strong to prevent. Now slowly my own family look down on me and even the evil spirits or the soul of dead people makes me fall sick. I am suffering a lot or I must say I am hurt. Please can you suggest me how to overcome this.
Last time when I was groaning with pain , local astrologer said it was the soul of my grandmother and at that moment when I fainted I saw guru rimpoche's image zooming at the alter, then as soon as I opened my eyes there was no such images at the alter.what does it say. Of course I chant vajraguru mantra more the 500 daily.
Thank you

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Om,

    I guess when you say Vajraguru mantra, you are refering to Guru Rinpoche’s mantra?

    I would suggest that you engage in the practice of Sengdongma, known as Simhamukha in Sanskrit. You can find the practice here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/protection-from-black-magic-and-spirits.html

    It is quite short but very effective. You should add her image to your shrine at home and make offerings every day, like fruits, candles, incense etc. More is explained in the article. You have to do the prayer and at least 108 mantras daily, the effect will not be instant, so you have to be consistent with it daily and you will be protected and your obstacles will be removed. You will receive her blessings for sure if you are consistent in your practice.

    I hope this helps. Thank you.

Question asked by Irwanto

I recently saw a tsem rinpoche's video that explains that it is okay to do a "white lie" in order not to make other people suffer.Another source states that it's going to depend on your motivation. Like for example many high lamas speak straight to the facts and it will hurt you but since the motivation is compassion, the lama will not reap a bad karma. My question is if our ultimate goal is to liberate other from samsara, should we always strive to tell the truth even though it hurts? I know that a layperson like me did not have the ability like other highly attained lamas so I will reap some bad karma if i speak straight all the time, but if it's gonna be helping them in the long term and the motivation right should I be able to speak straight all the time ?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Irwanto,

    Thanks for your question. Actually, the motivation that was mentioned is exactly that you want to save people from suffering. They are one and the same, what Tsem Rinpoche said and what the other source says.

    I’ll give an example of a white lie, if you see someone running away from a murderer and then the murderer comes up to you and asks you which way the victim went, you would tell a white lie and say you didn’t see or perhaps you tell the murderer the wrong direction. In that instance, what is motivation it is to ensure that the victim is not harmed, that they do not suffer.

    When it comes to us telling the truth, then yes we also need to keep our vows and commitments of not lying, then we should tell the truth. However, this always depends on the situation. If the truth is painful for that person now, but can help that person to transform so that it leads to less suffering in the future then we should tell the truth. However, it is not as simple as just that. There are other factors involved as well, for example, being skilfull. If you are not skilfull, you could hurt the other person so much that it’s causes lasting emotional damage.

    Speaking straight and telling the truth are two different things. There are many ways of telling the truth, but doing so in a manner that does not hurt others. “speaking straight” is not always the correct way of doing things, but that doesn’t mean you have to tell lies, it’s just how you tell the truth that matters because the delivery of a message can also cause suffering. It must be done in a skilful way. I hope that helps.

Question asked by Learner

Hello i recently purchased a dorje shugden kit and it comes with the diamond path book, do i need an initiation to do the daily sadhana?, and sometimes when i don't have time i do a mixed version of the sadhana( example on short sadhana it was written to do 3 but i do 7, or on the mantra part i do other deities mantra) is this practice allowed or should i just stick by numbers written in the book?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Hello Learner,

    Very happy to hear you have the Diamond Path. You do not need initiation to engage in the Diamond Path prayers, they can be done by any one. In fact, it’s a good practice to take as your daily prayers.

    If you are doing the short sadhana, where it is written to do 3 times you can do more of the mantras, kawang etc., not problem and it will be good for you. However, some parts for example torma offering mantras, are only done 3 times. If doing the condensed version, where it says to 3 times, you can do more.

    If you are doing the mantras of other deities:

    > Recite after you finish the Guru Yoga of Lama Tsongkhapa (for the short version – the first version in the book)
    > Recite after the Migtsema (for the condensed sadhana – which is at the back of the book)
    > If you are reciting the mantras of other Dharma Protectors then recite before the Dedication of either version (short or condensed).

    I hope this helps! Thank you.

Question asked by Karma Euden

My husband is opening his business tomorrow. Will his business success

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Karma Euden,

    Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, I don’t have the clairvoyance to answer your question. However, from the Buddhist teachings, anything is possible given the correct conditions. From a spiritual perspective, these conditions are your motivation, your good karma and your merits, as well as your own efforts.

    In order to reduce obstacles and create as spiritually best possible conditions, your husband can engage in any merit making practices. This can also include Dharma Protector practices, such as the practice of Dorje Shugden, to increase the success of your business. The practice of Gyezne, the increase form of Dorje Shugden is particularly useful in terms of creating wealth, both material and spiritual. You can find out more about the practice here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/prayers-and-sadhanas/dorje-shugden-gyenze-to-increase-life-merits-and-wealth.html

Question asked by Learner

Can you explain some ways to generate merits?

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Learner,

    There are many different ways to generate merit. In fact, any Buddhist practice necessarily does two things, first purifies our karma (to a lesser or greater degree depending on the practice itself) and second to generate merits. The generation of merit is more than simply doing something good, that itself creates negative karma.

    If you want to learn more about generating merits, you can read the Lamrim teachings. However, in essence, merit is created when you take refuge in the Three Jewels, do a positive action and then seal that action with a dedication. That is why all Buddhist practice begins with taking refuge and then doing a dedication afterwards. Here are just some ways in which you can generate merits:

    > Doing daily prayers, pujas, retreats, etc.
    > Making offerings
    > Meditation
    > Helping others who are less fortunate, or are suffering.

    The list goes on. I hope this helps. Thank you.

Question asked by Charles

Hello, I am a few questions regarding the serkym to dharmapala Setrap and tea offering to vajrayogini. I am a non-initiated peson by the way.

1.) In the second verse of serkym offering to Setrap that say I have to pour 21 times as mentioned in the "Sadhana and Prayers" post of the website. Do I have to recite the verse 21 times and pouring the tea on the 3rd and 4th stanzas or do I just recite in one time and pouring the tea 21 times on the 3rd and 4th stanzas

2.) I see in the "Sadhana and Prayers" post of the website that there is a prayer and serkym to dharma protector Setrap. But, the entire liturgy could possibly be a bit for someone who is in a hurry. Is there a shorter version/way of serkym offering to dharma protector Setrap for me as a non-initiated person or is what mentioned in that post is the shortest version I can do.

3.) In the sacred tea offering to vajrayogini according to this link "https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/tea-offering-to-vajrayogini-for-the-1st-time.html?nomobile" Is the container that the tea is being pour into has to be a serkym vessel or is it can be any kind of bowls/containers. Also, can I offering alcohol instead of tea using the liturgy in the link as a non-initiated person. Also, Is it permissible to do this? "I brewed the tea and put into a small jug and I consecrated using the incense and mantra "OM AH HUM" then I pour out the first portion while reciting the prayer and serkym to dharma protector Setrap and the remaining portion I pour out as an offering to Vajrayogini while reciting the tea offering liturgy to Vajrayogini."

  1. Reply by pastor

    Hi Charles,

    Let me help to answer your questions,

    1. There are two ways of doing Serkym. The first way is to pour everything into the Serkym offerings vessel before beginning the prayer itself, and then just reciting the prayer. The second, more traditional method, is to pour a little bit during the 3rd and 4th lines while reciting.

    For the verses that repeat, such as the main verse to Setrap, you pour on the 3rd and 4th lines each time you repeat. So for that section, you pour a little bit 21 times if you are repeating the verse 21 times.

    2. If you do not have enough time, then it is permissable to recite just the main verse to Setrap, which is the verse you repeat 21 times if reciting the full prayer. So just recite that one verse 21 times and pour for 21 times. If really tight on time, you can do it 7 or 3 times also. However, the benefit from the offering will be less than normal because you put less effort into the practice. I would suggest trying to do the main verse at least 21 times, even if you cannot do the entire prayer. Don’t worry, after some time you will memorise the main offering verse, so you will be able to do it quickly even when time is not on your side for that day.

    3. Serkym is usually offered in the traditional two-tiered serkym vessel. If you don’t have one or it’s not easy to get it, you can make your own with what you can get. For example, you can use a big glass bowl and inside that glass bowl, place a wine-glass or goblet inside. The main things is that it should have two tiers, so it overflows from one into the other. It should not overflower from the second one. And you should be new items to use only for this purpose.

    In regards to using alcohol instead of tea, generally Tsem Rinpoche recommended to use black tea, how you can use alcohol also. This is generally only offered to protectors however, not meditational deities. So the way Rinpoche taught the VajraYogini tea offering, only tea is used. You can use alcohol for the Setrap serkym, as long as those people you live with, etc. do not develop a wrong view about your practice. If you are living with others who may misunderstand, then better stick to tea.

    In regards to using the same jug for both Setrap and Vajra Yogini, it’s better to use two separate jugs, or brewing tea twice in the same jug. This is because each time you make the tea, it’s an offering to a different deity. However, if this is not possible for whatever reason, it’s permissable. There won’t be anything bad that will happen or anything like that.

    Hope all these answers help.

    Thanks!

    Dear Khang,

    Of course, it would be very good to help your friend to translate the prayers so he can recite in Vietnamese. We were working with some Vietnamese translators previously actually to translate the prayers, but they didn’t manage to do it. Prayers can be recited in any language. Here in Kechara, some people recite in Tibetan, some in Chinese and some in English. We have people who recite in other languges too. You can do the prayers in any language that you are comfortable with, so it would be good to help your friend translate the prayers. I hope this helps. Thank you.

Question asked by Irwanto

Hello, i would like to ask an advice about how to maintenance of tsa tsa, especially the clay one since i bought a vajrayogini clay tsa tsa recently.

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Irwanto,

    Generally, since the tsa tsas are made of clay, they don’t really require much maintenance as they are sturdy and durable. The only things is to clean it with a dry cloth regularly to keep it clean and dust free. This cloth should only be used for cleaning Buddha images and nothing else.

    Some people like to have the tsa tsa encased in acrylic to help protect it further, and some people like to encase it in a frame also. But it is entirely up to you, you can just keep it on your altar as it is, which a lot of people do, or you can do something to keep it more protected and clean, such as encasing it. Hope this helps!

    Hi there Spring,

    Thanks for your question. There are three different types of “chakras” that we can recommend, as listed below. These are the ones that I thought best suit your needs, if you would like to get any, I suggestion getting only one rather than all three. All you need to do it wear it as often as possible. They have been highly blessed through many rituals and prayers, so are very powerful.

    Lama Tsongkhapa Chakra
    https://www.vajrasecrets.com/lama-tsongkhapa-chakra
    This chakra embodies the enlightened energies of wisdom, compassion and spiritual power. It’s great for the mind, focus, etc. It provides an all-rounded type of energy for mental, emotional growth, and at the same time provides a high level of protection from negativity.

    Manjushri Chakra
    https://www.vajrasecrets.com/manjushri-chakra
    Manjushri is the Buddha of Wisdom and this chakra embodies his energies, which are mostly for focus, development of communication skills, learning, wisdom, memory, etc. As all of these improve, we are naturally more successful in whatever we put our minds towards.

    Dorje Shugden Chakra
    https://www.vajrasecrets.com/dorje-shugden-chakra
    Dorje Shugden is a Dharma Protector, so the function of this chakra is for both protection from negativity and also the creation of conducive conditions to thrive at what we want.

    You can read more from the links that have been provided. You can also order online from there, if you would like to invite any of them. Hope this helps!

You can read all about it here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/trakze-to-dispel-black-magic-spirits.html

Question asked by Lee

Hello Pastor!
I have questioens about:
Could we take refuge in Tshangpa Karpo or asking for his help according to Tsem Rinpoche said He is Peacful form of Lord Setrap?
May i ask about this sangsol text according to link under i put here:

Can we do recite and offer sangsol with this text from 4th Panchen Lama?
I had read the text but i do not see the name of Lord Shugden mention in this text.
Could i adding Dorje Shugden serkyem and prayers together with this sangsol text even his name is not mention in the text?
Thank you so much.

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Lee,

    Thank you for your questions. By right, yes since Tsangpa Karpo is the peaceful form of Lord Sertrap who is an emanation of Buddha Amitabha, you can refuge in him. However, I have never come across any prayers/texts concerning relying upon him as a Enlightened Protector in worldly form.

    I have not seen this Sangsol text before, but looking through the prayers themselves, it seems to be part of a larger ritual including the raising of prayer flags, etc. It should be okay to recite, however you should check with those that run that particular website if it is okay for people without certain initiations to do. Dorje Shugden is not mentioned in that prayer, because his practice probably had not yet arisen at the time when His Holiness the 4th Panchen Lama wrote the text.

    Technically speaking, yes, if you can engage in reciting the text with appropriate offerings, etc if any form of initiation is not need (as if it’s not part of a prayer flag raising, ritual, etc), then yes, you can do together with the Dorje Shugden Serkym and prayers.

    We do actually have two Sangsol prayers to Dorje Shugden available here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/prayers-and-sadhanas/incense-offering-to-dorje-shugden.html
    The longer one is similar in nature to the one by the 4th Panchen Lama. The long was can also be done, even if you don’t have any of the appropriate visualisations, it’s not a problem.

    Hope this helps. Thank you.

Question asked by Anonymous

If the Dalai Lama says he is advising to stop the practice of Dorje Shugden and he also says "whether people listen to his advice or not is up to them to decide". Then technically if a person has taken teachings/lower tantras etc from the Dalai Lama but wants to practice Dorje Shugden according to the Dalai Lama they are free to do so. He said in an interview that people are free to choose to do what they want.

But of course that person will have to stop attending His Holiness teachings as he has requested. So what is the issue if a person wants to take up Dorje Shugden practice irrespective of who their Guru is. And why should anyone be deliberately turned away from Dorje Shugden practice? Could you please elaborate thank you pastor.

  1. Reply by pastor

    Dear Anonymous,

    Thank you for your question. For your first point, yes it would seem so. However, here were need to take into consideration the aspect of guru devotion. if you have received formal refuge/vows/initiations in any of the four classes of tantra from His Holiness, then you have established a formal guru-disciple relationship. As such, you need to follow his advice. He has said in the past that he encourages people not to do the practice, but they are free to choose if they want to do it or not. As state here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/current-affairs/dalai-lama-says-we-can-practise-dorje-shugden-finally.html. However, even if the guru gives advice, the students role is to follow this advice since there is a formal guru-disciple relationship involved.

    For the second point, here is where the importance of the guru-disciple relationship comes in. If you have that type of relationship then you must listen to your guru’s advice. If you don’t have that type of relationship or are yet to establish that relationship in your spiritual practice, then of course you can choose to practice Dorje Shugden. I hope that this answer helps. Thank you.

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.

    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 .

    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 .
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    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.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

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
