A must read Rabbit tale!!!

Jul 13, 2013 | Views: 1,483

In society today, there are many people who judge those who are homeless. With just $50 in my pocket and 2 bags of belongings, I ran away from home at age 16 and became a homeless teenager on the street. Hitch-hiking my way from New Jersey to Los Angeles, I slept under bridges, on the side of highways and ate the cheapest of whatever food that I could find…

Life isn’t easy on the streets… You’re always hungry, your body is exposed to the harsh outdoor conditions, you’re embarrassed and people can easily take advantage of you.

John Byrne is a 37 year-old man from Ireland. He has been homeless since age 14 and begs for change alongside his rabbit, Barney and dog, Roxy. Whatever he “earns”, he uses it to buy food for the 3 of them. How kind…

At the end of last year, John was begging on Dublin’s O’Connell Bridge. An 18 year-old street bully came up to him and snatched Barney out of John’s arms and threw him over the bridge and into River Liffey. River Liffey runs through the center of Dublin and is ice cold during winter. John thought that Barney died due to the impact and water temperature, but when he looked over, he saw Barney swimming in circles. He immediately jumped over the bridge and swam to save his rabbit!

There’s always a lot of news published about how people would torment animals, abuse them and even intentionally throwing them into the river like in John’s case…

John does not have a warm house to go back to, or have the funds for personal medical attention… but his consciousness made him risk his life for another. From his actions, he won the Compassionate Citizen Award for going above and beyond the call of duty to help an animal in need. It’s good to know that Ireland recognizes people such as John.

I found this news incredibly touching and wanted to share it with all of my blog readers.

Do watch the video below that was recorded by a bystander.

Would you jump from a bridge, into cold freezing water, with unpredictable currents and not having a spare change of clothes… just to save a tiny rabbit?

Homeless Man Gives ‘Kiss of Life’ to Bunny Thrown Off Bridge

John emerging from the river with his rabbit after being rescued by the authorities 

Every year, pet guardians perish in desperate attempts to save their drowning pets. It’s a scenario that unfolds all too often. But recently there was a rare bright spot in the realm of watery accidents as justice was handed down in the case of a man who threw a pet bunny into a river, forcing a homeless man to jump in to save a life.

Meet John Byrne, The Homeless Man Ready To Die Saving His Pet

John Byrne has beeen living on the streets of Dublin since the age of 14. He is one of approximately 5,000 homeless people in Ireland at the moment, and for John, home isn’t measured in square feet or granite countertops. Instead home takes the shape of a small brown rabbit and a Jack Russell Terrier who show him what it means to be a family.

One July morning, John was begging on the O’Connell Bridge when 18-year-old Gary Kearney took him by surprise. Kearney grabbed Barney right out of John’s arms and hurled him over the bridge and into the river below.

Breathless and in shock, John looked over the side of the bridge with dread. He was expecting the worst but was relieved to see that Barney had not died on impact. The bunny was swimming in circles in the water below. Without hesitation, John joined him in the River Liffey.

Around 200 people watched as John struggled to save Barney from being swept away.

“I wasn’t going to leave him there,” John said. “I had to get him, I had to jump in to get him. Barney died in my arms but I got him under the bridge and gave him the kiss of life.”

Last month, Gary Kearney was sentenced to four months detention after pleading guilty at Dublin District Court to animal cruelty and torture.

John describes the sentence as “Justice. I wasn’t sure he wasn’t going to be handed a prison sentence but it shows that the judge does not tolerate cruelty to animals. I am absolutely delighted by the decision. Barney could have died that day.”

    What is wrong with Gary Kearney, who not only has no empathy and compassion, he goes out of his way to cause harm to a homeless man and his pet. Four months detention is really too light for such malicious thoughts motivated by unkind thoughts. Thankfully for Barney, John Byrne is fearless and swift to action. It is really touching to read about the story of John. It goes to show that social standing does not determine a man’s character. Thank you for this sharing.

  2. Samfoonheei on Feb 25, 2017 at 1:36 pm

    Very touching……. i do enjoyed watching those videos.
    So courage of John Byrne the homeless man to jump into the ice cold water to safe his pet rabbit.What he did was indeed incredible .His love and compassion for his pet rabbit and dog is an example,inspiration to us .
    Even though he is homeless yet he care and love his pet rabbit and dog so much giving food by begging.
    The man Gary Kearney who threw the pet rabbit was sentenced to four months detention.It show that the law do not tolerate cruelty to animals. A lesson to learn from here is to love.care and compassion to all sentient beings whatever happen to them.Never abused them.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing and i have shared with my friends too.

    John is so brave and compassionate. He risk his life to save the rabbit and that shows he appreciate live very much despite it is an animal. Eventhough he lives in the street to beg for food but he never forgets his 2 pets a dog and a rabbit. He takes care of his pets with whatever he begs. Inspiring to all of us to never take things for granted and not abuse animals.

    I am also proud with the Ireland government in taking action to punish the 18 year old man who abuse and tried to kill the rabbit. This will create the awareness to all that this is a cruel action and that laws will be imposed against these people.

  4. Pastor Ong Moh Mei on Jul 5, 2016 at 4:57 pm

    On one hand there is a homeless guy with nothing and willing to risk his life to save a rabbit. On the other had there is a “regular” guy who doesn’t think twice about taking something from another person and ending an animal’s life.

    These two men are both human. They belong to the same society. It makes me wonder what defines humanity nowadays. Who or what is responsible for defining a man’s character? Is evolution and progress responsible? Is the society, our parents responsible? Is it our karma?

    In this case, homelessness doesn’t rob a man of his kindness / compassion but then again we can ask is it really compassion that drove him to save the rabbit. We have read many stories of people who turned to animals for affection because of disappointments with other fellow human. Is it a really a selfish act or a compassionate one? Is human incapable of selflessness.

    Homelessness doesn’t rob a man of human decency. On the contrary, some of the most atrocious acts towards another fellow human and towards animals are caused by those who came from a beautiful home, has good education and supposedly respectable members of society. Never judge a book by its cover.

  5. Edward ooi on Feb 9, 2014 at 3:04 am

    Dear Rinpoche, I have no idea what have gone into the guy’s mind. If he have something to do with beggars then why won’t he just walk away instead of harming the rabbit and because of his “smart” action, he have to go into jail for 4 months. I’m happy to see that John and his pet bunny are fine. I hope John will get a job and eventually earn a home.

  6. Beatrix Ooi on Dec 14, 2013 at 1:46 am

    I’m very glad to read about how much love John has towards his lovely pets. This is the attitude every pet owner must have, since the pet is yours, then it relies on you. Glad that Barney survived, the abuser should be punished and the law served him right. Thank You for sharing Rinpoche.

  7. Lucas Roth on Dec 11, 2013 at 3:19 pm

    every animal should have rights, i love how much he cares about animals and they are his friends. i love animals and i will protect my dogs until they pass. i am happy that the rabbit is okay, thank you for sharing Rinpoche

  8. Carmen Lin @ KMP on Sep 22, 2013 at 6:40 pm

    Look at how skinny the man is, even his pets looked more well taken care of than him. He is a very good example of being selfless towards animals, some may think that he is very stupid to jump into the river to save his beloved rabbit. Well, let’s put it this way that this man has the compassion like a mother to her child and this man has the shown his compassion towards his pets. Many of us don’t think that animals have the feelings like human being, animals can feel sadness, happiness and pain inflicted on them, just that they couldn’t express it with neither words nor language, it doesn’t mean that they feel nothing. We seriously have to raise the awareness to people, and I myself am adjusting to think that animals does have feelings, Susan Lim is a walking example of animal awareness. Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this news. May all of us can support Susan and her animal career, she is the female version of this story, she does goes miles just for the sake of the rescued pets’ well beings. Please think about pet adoption instead of buying. May all beings be free of suffering. _/\_

  9. Elena on Aug 22, 2013 at 6:18 pm

    My favourite part of this blog post? That the guy who threw the bunny into the river received a four month detention sentence for animal cruelty and torture. Even though it is “just” a rabbit, clearly the courts value a life, regardless of its size.

  10. Wan Wai Meng on Aug 1, 2013 at 10:39 pm

    A nice ending for a very poor and frightened pet and pet owner! Every country should have more lawas to protect animals.

    Treating animals badly there will be repercussions. The young man who threw the rabbit wish he will find out why the law took him into prison not out of spite, but hopefully he learns something while being in prison. Thing about karma it never loses its potency and ability to manifest when the conditions are right. We also have to have compassion for the person who threw the rabbit, one day he will be thrown into a freezing river too.

  11. Felix Kong on Jul 31, 2013 at 2:26 pm

    John is so bravo ,jumped into cold water river and rescue his beloved rabbit. This three pets consider is a part life of John, accompany John in every moment, just like relationship father and son, sure giving fully protection. Please do not hurt or harm any animals.

  12. Jutika Lam on Jul 26, 2013 at 11:54 pm

    Dear Rinpoche,

    This story about John and his pet rabbit tale is so so touching.

    Even though John is just an homeless man he clearly regards his only companions as if they were his own life.

    While most of us would not jump in to a freezing cold river to save a rabbit even though we always know that we can always change to a new pair of warm clothes, John jumped in to the river to save his pet rabbit even though he did not have a new set of warm and dry clothes waiting for him and he would be freezing cold afterwards.

    It shows that John even though he may be homeless but yet he has a heart of pure gold to have risked his life for his pet rabbit.

    I hope that Gary Kearney will be punished severely for what he has done to Barney.

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this truly heart warming story.

    Love
    Jutika

  13. Yasmin on Jul 25, 2013 at 10:14 am

    This is amazing! This man is so compassionate that he risked his life to save his pet bunny. When do you hear such news very often? not very. Well he really deserved that award. He is treating his pets like true family. Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this piece of news.

  14. Vinnie Tan on Jul 25, 2013 at 1:27 am

    This is just so sweet of John. He cares for his pets just like his family members. He did not abandon them no matter how much he has to go through for them. I am very happy that Ireland has recognized his actions, the love and care towards animals, and awarded him a Award.

  15. Cliff on Jul 21, 2013 at 11:08 pm

    I really strongly believe that animal cruelty should not be tolerated and those who commit such a heinous crime should be brought to justice to reflect on their actions. Even with John being homeless he still decided to risk his life to jump into freezing cold water to save his friend, such a heroic act not many of us are capable of doing. I am just glad no one was badly injured and that John and Barney are safe. His pets are just so adorable though and to share his earnings with two of his beloved pets cannot be any sweeter than that. Being homeless since he was 14 means he has been homeless for 23 years, it really makes us think and appreciate that we really have it easy. Stories like this really makes me appreciate where I am and not to want to take it for granted. Thank you for sharing this story Rinpoche. I hope this story spreads awareness for people to appreciate what they have and to treat animals with equality.

  16. Patsy on Jul 20, 2013 at 6:54 pm

    John does not have a house but he has a family; a family which comprised of a rabbit and a terrier whom he loves so much that he risked his life for his pet rabbit. He may be penniless but he has a heart of gold.

    I salute to John for his selfless act.

  17. Julien Roth on Jul 20, 2013 at 12:54 am

    Wow!! This is so kind! Its so compassionate for this man to risk his life just for his rabbit. I wish that more people would be this kind to their animals just like John here. Then the world would be in a better place. And what i found very heartwarming was that although he had been on the streets, lacking food, money and could have starved, he still share all his supplies with his rabbit and dog. Amazing, just amazing.

  18. Sofi on Jul 19, 2013 at 6:23 pm

    I wonder…for a man who doesn’t know dharma, his actions seems to reflect on what some of what a dharmic person should be practising. He begs for living (just a Buddha had a begging bowl) which shows he had put his ego behind him. He loves and cares for his pets just as if they were his children which I think shows some equanimity and finally when he jumped in to save his rabbit, he had put the life of his rabbit above self, which kinda show boddhichitta, doesn’t it???. It makes me wonder that we, with our dharma knowledge, would be able to do as him when faced with those situations. Definitely more to ponder. Thanks Rinpoche for this article.

    What a compassion act! As a homeless can be this generous even though he has not enough for himself he still share with others. I think is very shame for some rich people who are a very unwilling to share their wealth to help others. Thank you Rinpiche for sharing this story with us.

  20. pavara on Jul 17, 2013 at 10:54 pm

    Wow!!! this guy really is a hero!
    nowadays people are abusing pets more and more.
    It is such good news that the bunny did not die.
    Imagine a homeless person can jump in to a river just to save a rabbit,and we so rich,have a house don’t even contribute a little bit of money for the sake of animals.
    I find this post is really inspiring.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this post.

  21. Lucas Roth on Jul 16, 2013 at 11:11 am

    all animal abusers stink! John is such a generous man with so little but still shares and is willing to risk his life for other lives. that boy that threw the rabbit is such a heartless person. i hope John has a happier life from now on

  22. Joy on Jul 16, 2013 at 12:26 am

    Unbelievable! This reminds me of the saying which goes… “SOME PEOPLE ARE SO POOR ALL THEY HAVE IS MONEY” because this clearly shows that someone like John though a HOMELESS has a heart of gold and is so much more richer than any rich man around we see. Because John treasures everything and everyone he has… he knows the value of his companions which he affectionately claims as his “babies”.

    I guess sometimes when you don’t have anything, you really got nothing to lose, and in this sense, you are actually really FREE!!!
    I happy to see that Ireland, recognises people like John’s selfless courage and glad to know people have donated food and items to him 🙂 Yes if it was my rabbit I would jump in and save him for sure!

  23. AdelineTan on Jul 15, 2013 at 5:36 pm

    John is truly a hero! He risk his life by jumping into the river without hesitation to save his pet rabbit Barney that was snatched away by a street bully named Gary and tossed it into river,luckily the rabbit survived after John gave him a kiss of life. John is a homeless person and he has to beg to survive,whatever he gets he uses it to buy food for his 3 beloved pets,his acts of selflessness to benefit others even to the animals is so inspiring.We must always love and care for the animals and never harm them.

  24. Ler on Jul 15, 2013 at 2:39 pm

    Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu May John and his pets be well and healthy

  25. Grace Leu(KHJB) on Jul 14, 2013 at 6:35 pm

    John show the true love towards his pet, not every one will do such sacrification. We should learn from his spirit of loving animal.

  26. sweekeong on Jul 14, 2013 at 6:15 pm

    This is really touching moment after reading what happened to Barney and what John did to rescue Barney risking his life. He doesn’t take the life of his pet for granted. John is living his life many times above the rest of us because he can take the shame and rejection from others while the rest of us are surrounding ourselves with comfort and pride. We put a fence around our ego protecting it while John doesn’t run away from himself. It does reflect how the general society thinks.

  27. SeanWang on Jul 14, 2013 at 2:22 pm

    The street bully should be placed in a jail for animal abuse. It is extremely cruel to harm animals like that, especially someone’s pet. This homeless man is very brave for protecting his companion. Let this be a reminder that there is cruelty on this world and there are good people too.

  28. Ching on Jul 14, 2013 at 10:40 am

    Hi,Tsem Tulku Rinpoche.
    I’ve been follow your blogs and updates through FB, for this past 3-months.All I could express is an appreciation and gratitude for letting me to know You.Many thanks for all the meaningful and great sharing.
    Nonetheless,a big thanks too sharing of this post.Good to know that are still humanity alive in today’s chaotic society.
    In btw, it would be great that John learn to earn a living independently, as he looks physically fit.

    Cheers! <3

  29. beatrix ooi on Jul 14, 2013 at 1:30 am

    John is a great man! He loves his pets with all his life, he treats them like his family. I’m very pleased to know about this news, he deserved the award. I really cannot imagine life living on streets with only a dog and a rabbit..
    Through his action, I believe that he must has starved himself quite a few times throughout the years, just to buy food for his 2 beloved pets.
    A very great article to read about!( Except for the part that Barney was thrown into the river)..
    Thank You for sharing Rinpoche.

  30. Low KHJB on Jul 14, 2013 at 1:16 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for the sharing.I truly respect Mr John for his commitment and compassion towards his pet rabbit.Without a second thought ,he would sacrifice his own life to save his pet rabbit.
    Then there are those who find pleasure in seeing others suffer,emotionally and physically.
    But,we are fortunate to find that there are still some kind citizen in the society who still cares for those who are weak and could not defend them self, human or otherwise.To bring justice to those worst than “Animals”.
    May those who is kind to be blessed with the gift to educate others who is blinded by their hate and ignorance to see the true meaning of sharing and caring .(Compassion or Dharma in the most basic form)

  31. sarahyap on Jul 14, 2013 at 1:10 am

    This man is a hero! When I saw the video, I was just so touched at how he actually jumped into the river, make sure he held on to his rabbit. And the interview of him when they asked him how he felt we the rabbit was thrown into the river, he was so traumatized and sad.

    Very glad the rabbit was saved and the guy that conducted that act of cruelty was sentenced for detention by law. Hopefully people will be more caring towards animals in the future and not treat them as a toy.

  32. Edern Tan on Jul 13, 2013 at 11:40 pm

    Wow.. The man didn’t even hesitate when jumping down the ice cold water. This shows how he loves his pet rabbit. the rabbit also has a great will to continue living when being thrown down the river. Good to know that animal animals will be jailed and not scot free.

  33. Edward ooi on Jul 13, 2013 at 11:14 pm

    Dear Rinpoche, I have no idea why did Gary Kearney throw John’s pet rabbit for? Was it for fun or he just hate rabbits. I can see that John truly love his pets, he would even risk his live for them. The whole world will better place if everyone love animals like John did.

  34. Pastor Susan on Jul 13, 2013 at 10:49 pm

    OMG! I absolutely love this news..a glimpse of hope in the human race. I hope this act of compassion toward animals will ignite the love for animals in the hearts of many.

  35. yeomiawkee on Jul 13, 2013 at 7:06 pm

    It’s so touching as it is motivating to know in this world there is someone who is compassionate enough and treat his pets as family instead of an animal, may God bless him always and keep them all safe and sound!

  36. Leu Chong Hin -kH (JB) on Jul 13, 2013 at 6:57 pm

    John 對自己家人(兔子與小狗)愛護和爱心是非一般的!虽然他一无所有,可是每天在街道过着流浪日子,也会和他家人分享自己食物。對動物的愛護是精神可嘉。看完這篇文章,腦海里盤旋着一个问题?为何John 会在街头流浪二十二年呢?那是一段多長時間呀,算算有八千零三十天!太

  37. Lim (KH JB) on Jul 13, 2013 at 4:14 pm

    Thanks Rinpoche for sharing with us… This article is so touching…

    Maybe a simple person like John always be care to others sentient beings hence normal peoples with normal life style will focus on others aspect so become less and less compassion…

    Salute to John, u r a true Hero!!!

  38. Eric Lee KHJB on Jul 13, 2013 at 4:13 pm

    我在柔佛新山参与克切拉香积厨的派饭活动已有一年多,每每看到这些流浪汉所承受的问题而替他们感到难过,而我也只能尽自己的一些能力去派饭给他们吃,就能如此而已。有很多的人,甚至于自己的身边的亲朋戚友都认为这是一件吃力不讨好的事,而且他们也不值得我们去帮,所以都不是很支持。可是,如果我们深入的去了解他们,其实他们也是别无选择的情况下才会如此,再加上仁波切把john的事绩上载的时候,我更能肯定我当初的想法是对的,John的爱心已经让我有动力在继续的走下去,谢谢john,谢谢仁波切。

  39. Girlie OOI on Jul 13, 2013 at 4:10 pm

    Gary deserved to be punished for putting the rabbit’s life in danger. Glad that there is a judge out there who cares for the lives of our animal friends.

    Let this be an example that ill-treating animals is not to be considered lightly.

    Very fortunate for me and friends to have visited these four most worthy pilgrimage sites as mentioned in this blog post. Lumbini where the birthplace of Prince Siddharta Gautama later known as Buddha Shakyamuni, Bodh Gaya the place where Prince Siddharta Gautama reached enlightenment, Sarnath the place where Buddha Shakyamuni turned the Wheel of Dharma for the first time and finally Kushinagar the place where Buddha Shakyamuni entered Parinirvana. So blessed managed to visit all these Holy places just before the lockdown because of the covid pandemic.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Novka Kuaranita for this interesting sharing, so as more people be inspired to go.

    In the eyes of many people, giving doesn’t count unless it’s completely selfless. In reality, though, giving isn’t sustainable when it’s completely selfless. Tsem Rnpoche is one truly Lama who gives silently without hope of praise and reward. Rinpoche gives selflessly to awaken the sleeping humanity in one’s heart. Spreading love and caring everywhere as Rinpoche goes had inspired many of us. There is nothing more beautiful things we can do. If we ever had the chance of making a big impact on the life of someone else, we know how wonderful it can feel to help someone.
    A beautiful story of a selfless Lama who have a heart of gold.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Anila for this sharing.

    Rinpoche read all notes, letters, and cards that was sent to his labrang. It never comes to my mind at all whether or not our guru Tsem Rinpoche saw, ate, or liked our offerings. All I know that Rinpoche knew for sure what we are doing. I am one of the many that Rinpoche had gave me gifts through all these years. Feeling happy and blessed with what I received. Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands. May Rinpoche have a swift return.
    Thank you Anila for this wonderful sharing for many of us to have a better insight understanding of a great Lama.

    你时常都有选择的机会……那就做出正确的选择吧。就像马丁·路德·金所说的:“作正确的事永远都不会嫌迟。”

    当你发现很难去改变自己的恶习时,那就根据帕繃喀仁波切在《菩提道次第广论》里所描述的方式,长期持续地进行死亡禅思。那么你就能够感受到自身念头的转变。它始终会有转变的一天。目前,先专注于宗喀巴大师的修行,对祂生起信心,并时常供养祂……你将为自己累积足够的善因,来等待时机的成熟。

    Reading this article reminds me of my trip there in 2019 just before the lock down. I am glad I made it there as encouraged by our Guru Tsem Rinpoche to go on pilgrimage to Holy places instead of visiting places of interest. It’s a once a life time experienced for me. Went on pilgrimage to Tibet in 2019 and to Sera Choding Hermitage of Lama Tsongkhapa and few other Holy places as well. Sera Choding Hermitage was also the founder of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. It was one of Tsongkhapa’s principal retreat centers, where he gave many of his most important teachings and where he composed one of his most famous works.
    Fortunate to go to Kushinagar where Buddha Shakyamuni entered Clear Light , and seeing the Ramabhar Stupa,where the cremation place of Buddha Shakyamuni, and a colossal statue of Lord Buddha at the Matha Kuar feeling blessed indeed. Another holy place as mentioned in the blog is Wu Tai Shan. It is a popular pilgrimage as well. Mount Wutai with its five flat peaks is one of the four sacred Buddhist mountains in China. This Holy place is associated with the rising sun which signifies birth and renewal. Due to this interpretation, it is often regarded as the most sacred of the Five Great Mountains. Went there too much earlier with Kecharians friends. Minhitale Buddha Statue in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka, another Holy place. Historically recorded as the birthplace of Buddhism in Sri Lanka. Anuradhapura was also the center of Theravada Buddhism for many centuries and has been a major Buddhist pilgrimage site with ruins of many ancient Buddhist temples. A place worth going but I have not visited yet which I love to go some day.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this wonderful sharing.

    A strong inspiring story that will touch our heart and soul. Reading and watching those videos in this blog post will definitely inspire and motivate us all. Bill Porter was an American having spent much of his life studying and translating Chinese religious and philosophical texts. He is a translator of Chinese texts, primarily Taoist and Buddhist, including poetry and sūtras. Bill Porter stepped into the ancient Chinese literary world, which changed everything. To many Chinese, he is known as Red Pine and the author of popular books on Chinese hermits and ancient poets. Many had wonder if the Buddhist hermit tradition still existed in China, not until Bill Porter discovered that the hermit tradition is very much alive. So many insights into life in China, and the Buddhist renewal after the cultural revolution the historical refuge of ancient hermits. Dozens of monks and nuns continue to lead solitary lives in quiet contemplation of their faith deep in the mountains. Inspiring each of them , living as simple as possible with what they have. That’s a beautiful understanding of Chinese culture, a rare happening , and should be cherished by all who love the Chinese classics .
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Wow this great Lama the third Purchok incarnation the Lozang Tsultrim Jampa Gyatso who had served as tutor to both the Twelfth and the Thirteenth Dalai Lamas . He studied under a number of great masters and became a competent scholar at a very young age. His collected works covering subjects such as commentary on logics, rituals, and biography were compiled into texts. Interesting read.
    Thank you Rinpoche .

    Stinginess is the ticket to a long stay in the sad and barren lands of poverty.

    Making happy offerings to enlightened and ordinary friends is a recipe for spontaneously arising generosity and the joys it causes.

    The Colossus of Rhodes was a statue of the Greek sun-god Helios, erected in the city of Rhodes, on the Greek island. An interesting mythology behind this huge statue. It was built between the years 292-280 BCE, to honour the Ancient Greek god of the Sun, Helios recording to history. The people of the city of Rhodes in Greece were saved from a terrible siege and that’s where this statue was built. The Greek mythology was strongly influenced by the ancient Egyptian myths. Sound interesting. Rhodes has been famous since antiquity as the site of Colossus of Rhodes, and was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. This ancient town is a step back in time and is one of the biggest best-preserved Medieval settlements of Europe. It’s the oldest populated medieval city in Europe with some 5000 people living inside the castle walls. Worth a visit to see for ourselves the beauty of this ancient town with many myth stories .
    Thank you Rinpoche and Gen. Lobsang Phuljung for this wonderful sharing.

    Each of us have a dark story to tell from the past. Reading again this interesting short posts of personal experiences with HE the 25th Tsem Rinpoche by Gen. Lobsang Phuljung . Black magic spells for revenge are an advanced and destructive form of magic that can manipulate or hurt other people. Everybody has been in a scenario where vengeance appeared to be the perfect idea for resolving a conflict. Even if we employ these curses and spells for revenge we are the ones who gets hurt as well. Negatively impacts our physical health by raising our blood pressure, trigger defensiveness and it turns into a destructive force that can harm ourselves. Life can only be understood backwards but it must be lived forwards. May these life experience provide us the inspiration we need to go on in life while learning from it.
    Thank you Gen. Lobsang Phuljung for sharing this untold story with us.

    We should feel gratitude for all that was given to us. The highest giving would be dharma. From those who have given us dharma, we should show a humble and sincere attitude. Always remember their kindness by practicing and applying. Only with dharma can we find genuine lasting happiness. The person who gave us genuine happiness through teaching us dharma should be remembered, celebrated, respected and be shown gratitude always.

    The Sangha has kept Buddhist texts safe over the centuries and has interpreted and taught Buddhist philosophy. The Sangha has also provided inspiration and guidance on how to live a good Buddhist life. Being one of the three jewels of Buddhism, Sangha is an integral part of this community. We turn to these three jewels when we need to feel safety .Sangha is an equally important part of Buddhism where they provides a harbour in time of distress, and at the time of distractions. They help each other to make the journey smooth and spread kindness to everyone around them. It is believed that while walking the path, they will helps everybody to visualize goals clearly and aids in understanding the meaning of life in a better way. Beautiful article by Thich Nhat Hanh explaining the essence of a sangha.

    Yunnan is a province in southern China, bordering Myanmar, Laos and Vietnam as well China is a multi-religious country. Taoism, Buddhism, Islamism, Protestantism and Catholicism are the main stream religions in China. Reading this article again and again feeling glad as the practice of Dorje Shugden had spread to many more places. Showing that it is not a minor practice after-all. Its flourishing to the ten direction. Dorje Shugden stupa is located right in the middle of the beautiful and sacred snow-capped mountains. Yulong Snow Mountain is a famous scenic area in Yunnan, after all. Since then it had attracted many locals and tourist .Looking at those pictures tells all. I have visited Yulong Snow Mountain but not been to see that new monastery where the sacred stupa is built. Hopefully I could visit someday.
    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.
    5 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
