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.
(Oleh Tsem Rinpoche) Manjushri sangat istimewa dalam silsilah Gelugpa, sebagaimana juga di semua silsilah dan tradisi. Dia adalah Yidam utama dari Lama Tsongkhapa, dan Manjushri menganugerahkan semua jenis kesempurnaan mental untuk membantu kita mencapai tingkat realisasi dan wawasan dan pengertian dan penetrasi yang lebih tinggi ke dalam ajaran Buddha. Jadi, memiliki informasi mengenai Manjushri...

A few months ago, when a few of my students visited Shar Gaden Monastery in Mundgod, India; my students visited Khensur Ladrang (lama’s household) to bring some supplements and Dharma offerings for Khensur Rinpoche. We knew from a previous visit that Khensur Rinpoche was diabetic, so this time, my students came with some supplements...
(By Tsem Rinpoche) The One Hundred and Fifty Verses of Praise says: Take refuge in whomever Has absolutely no shortcomings, Absolutely no blindness, and in whom resides Every aspect of all good qualities. When you think of this, Respect those who praise him And abide by his teachings. In other words, when you think...
Mount Wutai is believed to be the earthly abode of Manjushri, the Buddha of Wisdom. Its connection to Manjushri is mentioned in a passage of Avatamsaka Sutra (the Flower Garland Sutra)...
In the Buddhist scriptures, specifically in the Dukkar texts, it mentions 80 different types of spirits that abide in different realms. Within these different types, there are subdivisions so there are many different types of spirits. Spirits can manifest in many dimensions, travel very fast (at the speed of light), and have some levels of clairvoyance. Some spirits are...
Kepada Sahabat, Saya menerima permintaan maaf lain dari seorang murid. Hal yang sama telah terjadi berulang kali selama dua tahun terakhir dengan orang yang sama.

(By Tsem Rinpoche) In most cultures, women as a gender have been undeniably classified as lower in status compared with men. It was only recently that women began to receive equal recognition, appreciation, and stature, but even so, in some places around the world, women are still viewed as inferior and treated accordingly. In...
(By Tsem Rinpoche) Dear all, I gave a Dharma talk to a few of my students in my residence a while ago and I thought I’d share this on my blog for everyone to listen. In this video, I talked a little about the vastness of our mind, how our mind shapes our present...
(By Tsem Rinpoche) Around August 2013, the Board of Directors in Kechara presented me 800 White Tara statues to request for my long life. I was very touched by such a wonderful and sincere offering from my students, as I knew it must not be easy to arrange for 800 statues and on top...
The first part of the video is a short extract. But you will not be able to understand the whole theory unless you watch the whole documentary.

(By Tsem Rinpoche) My personal assistant Pastor Loh Seng Piow first started my YouTube channel back on October 31, 2006. At that time I didn’t think too much of the Internet and when I heard he wanted to set this up I was reluctant and I did not see any reason to do this....
(译文请往下阅读) In the 70’s, when I came across Buddhism, there were books and there were items that were translated and some of them were quite good. But there was not a lot. And, if you want to study what the monastic system study, it was very difficult to find translations. And if you did find translations, they were very technical and dry and if I may say quite boring. Decades ago, I came across some books by His Eminence Geshe Kelsang Gyatso and I read through them. I found the books systematic, easy to understand, orderly, based on...
Do you really believe in the paranormal? Have you ever seen a ghost, ghoul or spectral being from the realm of the paranormal? Just because we might not be able to perceive them does not mean that they do not exist. In fact, there are many things that we cannot perceive like atoms, radio...
In 1964, a few years after fleeing Tibet for India, His Holiness the Dalai Lama and his entourage were strenuously trying to re-establish Tibetan institutions and infrastructure as refugees.

Opening Eye Chenrezig (Migchey Chenrezig) (By Tsem Rinpoche) Dear friends, Due to the ultimate source of our karma ripening, we can experience many problems arising from environment, people, surroundings, food, sound, water, etc. They can afflict us and bring discomfort or problems, disturbing our quality of life.

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.
