H.E. the 25th Tsem Rinpoche is a recognised Tulku and an ordained monk in the great tradition of Lama Tsongkhapa.
With a Mongolian-Tibetan heritage, a childhood in Taiwan and America, and intensive study and meditation in Gaden Shartse Monastery, Rinpoche is one of the rare, precious teachers with the unique teaching ability to bridge East and West.
Based in South East Asia since 1992, Rinpoche’s teachings are based on logic and universal human values, free of the limitations of dogma, culture and individual background, and have led many to enter the sacred path of study, contemplation and meditation. Great benefit has been predicted for this region, including china, through his Dharma activities.
Renowned for his charitable works such as building schools, hospitals and providing assistance and food to the poor and underprivileged, Rinpoche’s organisation, Kechara, continues to bring benefit to the world through its many initiatives.
(By Tsem Rinpoche) Commentary on Trakze Practice: A Practice to Dispel Black Magic and Spirits This commentary on Trakze practice was compiled from traditional sources by His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche. Date: 30th January 2015 NOTE: This is a commentary on Trakze’s practice and can be done daily by anyone who wants to receive protection...
Kid geniuses are people who were good in something in another life and they from a young age without or with very little training can do something beyond your belief system of what kids can and cannot do. When I was in the Monastery, I saw young reincarnated tulkus who can recite very complicated passages from certain scriptures with very...
(By Tsem Rinpoche) The Dharma Protector (Sanskrit: Dharmapala) called Tsiu Marpo is an ancient Buddhist deity. His story stems from over a thousand years ago during the time of Padmasambhava, the “lotus born”, who is also known as Guru Rinpoche. Padmasambhava was a great Indian tantric master invited to Tibet by King Trisong Detsen,...
In today’s world, most people live in densely-populated cities. Constructed out of steel, concrete, cement and glass, these artificial environments may be attractive to some. Unfortunately however, man-made materials emanate trace amounts of negative energies that accumulate in our bodies over time. This, combined with the ever-present pollution in the air that we breathe, the...
Dear friends around the world, Here are some one-of-a-kind videos you are not going to want to miss, showing things that unbelievably are still happening in this day and age. It is frequently claimed that there is no discrimination against Dorje Shugden practitioners within the Tibetan communities. Most notably and recently, the Sikyong (Prime Minister)...
Today, Dharma is about creating beautiful, harmonious relationships with the people around us, to forgive the wrongs that others have done to us and to forgive ourselves also for the wrongs we have done. Then we move on to...
Dear Rinpoche, Here’s a follow up to the recent videos and teachings that Rinpoche has given us about the vastness of the universe. My dad sent me this email, which shows us the relative size of earth, compared to some of the other MUCH MUCH large stars and planets in the universe. We are...
(译文请往下阅读) Dear friends around the world, I thought I would share some thoughts about the ‘association’ with China people make with people of my faith. My interest in China is not borne out of political motivations or objectives. Long before the Sino-Tibetan conflict, and even before China arose as a global super-power, from a very young age I had already liked and admired China for her tremendous contributions to the world in the sciences, arts, culture, philosophies, religion, astronomy and for her rich cultural history. My admirat...
(译文请往下阅读) Every single day now I look forward very much to the day coming soon where the disappointing ban against the World Peace Buddha Protector Dorje Shugden will be over. It will be soon as I have been told by many extraordinary people I’ve met recently. Everything the Tibetan leadership has said against the Dorje Shugden practice has not made any sense. At first it sounded good, but as time goes on, educated people are examining their claims and coming to the conclusion it does not make sense. More are speaking out. Any government or lead...
(By Tsem Rinpoche) In the language of ancient India (Sanskrit), Tara literally means ‘Savioress’. She is a female Buddha with a particularly long history of being worshipped by many great Indian and Tibetan masters. The practice of Tara originally descended from ancient India during the time of the great Indian Buddhist institutions. In the...
Dear friends around the world, The Shugden issue has been painful and getting worse and it’s not coming to a conclusion on it’s own. I am not here to criticize His Holiness the Dalai Lama. I am not here to degrade, berate or insinuate anything. I would like to bring forth three debates to...
When one thinks of ghosts and hauntings, one is perhaps most likely to conjure up images of dilapidated old houses, abandoned, feral buildings, lonely rural roads, or dark, sinister forests. Yet it seems that ghostly phenomena are not confined to merely this common notion of what haunted places should be. At times, there come...
(By Tsem Rinpoche) I am fortunate to be living in Malaysia and proud to say that it is my home. Malaysia allows me to be who I am, pursue my interests, and meet wonderful and kind people. Many years ago one of my teachers, Kyabje Lati Rinpoche from Gaden Shartse Monastery, and my protector asked...
(By Tsem Rinpoche) 52 Beautiful White Taras! (By Tsem Rinpoche) This artist is spectacular. I wish Tsongkhapa in this style can be painted also. I wanted to share with you the beauty and the unique style of painting by this talented artist. May the artist be blessed. Refreshingly non-traditional for a change.

(By Tsem Rinpoche) Dear friends around the world, I have been wanting to speak out gently about our lineage, practice, protector and traditions for over 15 years. I have received advice from my Guru to keep silent and stay low key. I could not defy my guru’s instructions. I have been asking every few...
Here’s another wonderful selection of supernatural encounters by celebrities. I find these neat as they show that people from all walks of life have experiences. Have a watch, learn and enjoy. Just click above on the video and watch. Very interesting episode. Note: All articles published on the blog are conceptualised, approved and...
On March 15-24, a 9 foot tall (2.6 meters) “Jade Buddha for Universal Peace” will be arriving in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia! The Buddha Shakyamuni statue was carved out from an incredible boulder of nephrite jade, discovered in 2000 in Canada. It was 18 tonnes, and many experts called the jade boulder a bonafide rarity...

I must thank my dharma blog team who are great assets to me, Kechara and growth of dharma in this wonderful region. I am honoured and thrilled to work with them. I really am. Maybe I don't say it enough to them, but I am saying it now. I APPRECIATE THESE GUYS VERY MUCH!
Dear everyone... This is a good condensed talk I gave on Guru Yoga of Tsongkapa. This is the one you should share with others when they are interested in a not too lengthy explanation. It is the perfect practice for everyone who wants simplicity yet effective blessings. You can share this with more people, it will be good.
