That’ll do, pig: Bizarre footage emerges of 150kg fugitive pig ‘praying’ before a Buddhist temple… and he only moved on after a group of monks chanted to him

  • The 150kg pig had reportedly escaped from a local farm in search of food
  • The pig was found kneeling on its forelimbs at a temple in eastern China
  • It left the temple after a group of monks chanted a Buddhist scripture to it
  • The images have sparked heated dialogues on Chinese social media sites 
  • Sadly, the pigs owner had it slaughtered before learning of its stardom

A large pig was found this week kneeling on its forelimbs at a temple in Tantou village, eastern China 


It seems that humans aren’t the only ones who need forgiveness.
Bizarre footage has surfaced of a fugitive pig grovelling in front of a temple in Wenzhou, Zhejiang province on Tuesday.
Pictures and video of the bowing boar, which had escaped from a nearby farm, have spread like wildfire on Chinese social media, sparking a flurry of debates over what the animal was doing, reports Sina.
Footage shows the animal kneeling on its forelimbs encircled by worshippers, as a Buddhist ceremony takes place inside the temple.
The saintly swine reportedly stayed put for hours, and only left the scene after a group of monks emerged from inside and chanted a Buddhist scripture towards it.

Images of the bowing boar have spread like wildfire on social media, sparking a flurry heated debates on exactly what the animal was doing

Discussions on the social media site WeiBo have seen some users propose the animal was seeking a pilgrimage for a Chinese New Year’s blessing.
Others deduced the holy hog was merely seeking food or resting after an act of physical exertion.
Another web user offered a more scientific explanation: the pig was suffering from a disease concerning a deficiency in vitamin E, which can lead to an inability to stand up on all fours and kneel on one’s front legs.
Meanwhile, the owner of the pig later revealed it had escaped his hog pen on the morning on February 22, apparently in search of food.

It was later revealed the 150kg pig has escaped from a nearby farm with two other cohorts in search of food

Sadly, Mr Huang-who had raised the animal up to over 150 kilograms-ordered for the animal to be slaughtered upon being recaptured.
In a cruel twist of fate, Mr Huang Wenzhou Metropolis Daily he only learned of its internet stardom after the pig had been butchered, and he would not have done so otherwise.
‘How bizarre! I’ve been raising pigs for so many years but I’ve never seen anything like this. I really shouldn’t have killed it!’ he said.
Huang was astonished by the viral images, and vowed that none of his pigs have been diagnosed with any diseases.

Sadly, the owner of the pig ordered it to be butchered when it was recaptured, only learning of its internet stardom when it was too late. He told local media: ‘I really shouldn’t have killed it!’

‘This is really awkward. If the pigs were scared, they should have ran away instead of making that strange posture and let everyone watch.’
Over three thousand people reportedly attended the temple for the final day of confessions on Buddha repentance day.
It would seem this pitiful pig’s prayers were left unanswered.

    This is an amazing story of a pig that kneeled in front of a temple as if it is paying homage. The pig did not kneeled for a few minutes but it kneeled for hours until the monk chanted a Buddhits scripture to it. Unfortunately, the pig was slaughtered after that.

    The pig must have been a Dharma practitioner in its previous lives, and the Dharma imprint was very strong in it. Otherwise, how to explain when it kneeled in front of the temple for hours? It must know that it will die soon, the Buddhist chanting would help it to calm down before its death and helped it to go to a better place.

    Now that we are in the human form, we should practice the Dharma, purify our karma so we don’t go to a bad place. When we take rebirth as an animal, we will not be able to purify our karma and it will take us a very long time before we take rebirth in human form again.

    This pig is really special. And is truly amazing. This is proven that animals do have conscious mind. I find the actions of this pig interestingly strange. I think the pig could recall its previous life’s negative deeds and now regretted its past actions. It could be it went to prostrate at the temple hoping to seek purification there. Thank you Rinpoche and blog team for sharing this very touching story ?

  3. TekLee on Jan 12, 2017 at 2:21 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this article. I have read this article on the internet many times. But every time I read, it give me a different feeling. It is really the mixture feeling of lovely and sad. Animals have feelings too. All the sentient beings in the world was once human before. It is bless for the pig at least before he was slaughter, he sought for refuge of Buddha, and got some blessing from the monks. Maybe it was his karma that he had to go through the slaughter, but it seems the Dharma imprint stayed in his mind before he was slaughtered. I think Mr. Huang in fact should stop killing after seeing this. Maybe he should think of changing his career. Even a pig would take in Buddha, Dharma, what about us as human? I hope that pig had swift and good rebirth and not rebirth again in the three lower realm. _/\_

    Oh….dear i haven seen any thing like that before. A large pig was found kneeling on its forelimbs at a temple in Tantou village, eastern China .The pig had escaped from a nearby farm, to the temple knelling ,looks like the pig knew his days are short and asking for forgiveness. Humans aren’t the only ones who need forgiveness.the poor pig only left after a group of monks chanting Buddhist scripture towards it.Later the poor pig was was recaptured and slaughtered.May the pig have a good human rebirth. Animal have feelings too and never harm them.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing .it is advice and teachings for us.

  5. Hayden Chan on Jan 1, 2016 at 2:07 pm

    I feel sorry for the pig . The pig was slaughtered . I haven’ t seen a pig keel in front of a temple the pig is respecting the monks who were chanting in the temple . I like animals, but why kill it its just looking for food just let it go . And lastly I hope that the pig wil gain a good ribirth .

  6. Kelsang Demo on Aug 25, 2015 at 6:43 pm

    Thank you for these very helpful images-i just studied the holy Dharma when my teacher mentioned this story-then i found it on your page-i believe trough the strong force of intention and powerful blessings of its spiritual guide it had to find these monks and through their prayers it had to die swiftly, only to be reborn human again, so it can attain enlightenment in this very life!
    Such is the compession and power of Buddha -thank you for sharing!
    Much love, demo xxx

  7. Patsy on Jul 21, 2015 at 9:47 pm

    The pig has dharma imprints from previous life. The pig may have sensed that life is coming to an end soon thus escaped and found its way to the temple to seek forgiveness and blessings.

    I hope that by hearing the chanting by the monks and doing prostrations before being slaughtered will enable the pig to have a better rebirth.

  8. Wan Wai Meng on Jul 21, 2015 at 6:31 pm

    We cannot know what really happened to the ‘pig’ or if it is even a pig in the first place. What this reminds me is that I am one breath away from my next rebirth. So ready or not, our karma will bring us here or there, and thats why we should practice our dharma well.

  9. Julien Roth on May 13, 2015 at 8:49 pm

    Wow! I have really never seen anything like this. I did not even know animals can behave in this way! That is if it is even an animal controlling the pig.

    For me, the part which stood out the most in the whole article was when the pig got recaptured and slaughtered. To me, that doesn’t even make any sense. I mean, why would you even think of killing an animal who has just done something no animal has done before? No other animal has done what this pig has done and i am surprised the the owner wasn’t eve curious about knowing why the pig did with it did. It was a stupid decision to kill the pig. I hope the owner knows that.

    This post really opened by mind about life and afterlife. The pig could have been a reincarnation of someone who was close to the Dharma, which explains the bowing down at the temple. I really wonder why the pig did that. So many questions that need answering hmm..

  10. Edward Ooi on May 10, 2015 at 10:56 pm

    It is sad that the boar was eventually slaughtered in the end but what it actually fascinated me is that even a boar out of so many beings in the world would even break out of the farm and bowed down in front of the temple for such a long time. The owner said he shouldn’t have killed the boar but what would he do to the boar if he actually knew about it? Ins’t that curious? I am not judging him, I am just simply curious about it. I sure wished that the boar is able to take a better rebirth in the human realm so it will be able to have a better chance to learn the Dharma.

  11. Lucas Roth on Apr 5, 2015 at 3:05 pm

    That is incredible, the pig was praying! This is one example that animals are like us because people believe that humans are so much better and smarter than animals because animals are not as smart or because they have different behaviors. But this shows that they are intelligent and they can act just like us because we are all aliv and can think. That is amazing we are the same.

    I cannot believe that the poor pig was slaughtered and that makes me angry because it just shows how humans really don’t care about anything because this pig obviously shows something different that other pigs don’t show and the people just killed it like any other pig that is brutally slaughtered. Why do we do this? If we actually learned from the pig it could have shown the world that they are not that different but just because it is an animal does that mean it has less rights and it is just killed? I doesn’t make sense, we could all have learned something but instead we are reminded of the cruelty done to these animals. Maybe we still can learn from this. Maybe we can see how humans are and how they kill even though we could learn and discover. It has a message saying that humans don’t care, isn’t that sad?

  12. Khoo on Apr 4, 2015 at 12:40 am

    I believe that it is the Dharma seed inside of this animal that made it did this. That is why Rinpoche always advised us to chant mantra and blow it on animals. It may plant a Dharma seed or even triggered a Dharma seed inside of these sentient being in less fortunate form. I wish that it gets a better life on its next rebirth.

  13. Julia Tan on Apr 3, 2015 at 8:37 am

    This is truly amazing. This is proven that animals do have conscious mind. The piggy even knew that the particular day was the final day of confessions on Buddha repentance day. The piggy made her way to the temple and make confession for whatever wrong she had done for the past that made her took rebirth as a piggy. I do wish the piggy would have a swift and good rebirth. At least this life as a piggy she does not have the karma to harm anyone an that purified her karma. May this prostration and confession she made in front of the Buddha collect merits for her to cut down her sufferings and gain a better rebirth in her next life.

    Do not harm animals. Practice Dharma whenever we have even a very slim chance. Human rebirth came not easy. So that we will not regret like the Piggy when it is too late.

  14. Pastor Chia on Apr 3, 2015 at 12:26 am

    The cause been born as the pig having such karma has creating from the past life is very sad. Although this pig knees in front of of temple like his doing confession before it get slaughtered, i wish the pig conciousness might know what it has done from the pass life, It karma can be purify and have change to born as the human and born near to the dharma at it next life.

  15. Pastor Henry Ooi on Apr 2, 2015 at 11:49 pm

    I find the actions of this pig interestingly strange. I think the pig could recall its previous life’s negative deeds and now regretted its past actions. Maybe in its previous life/lives it would have some dharma knowledge and practices but things took a bad turn due to its attachments to desires and other non virtuous actions. It could be it went to prostrate at the temple hoping to seek purification there.

    I remember on one our trips with Rinpoche to Nepal we chanced upon a mother dog with four puppies in Swayambunath temple. The dog’s jaw was broken and infection had set in and it couldn’t open its mouth to drink water or eat food. It was clearly starving yet the puppies were trying to suckle milk. Rinpoche asked Chia (now pastor Chia) and another student to buy food for it and packets of milk for the puppies. When the food came it couldn’t eat but the puppies were eagerly lapping the packet milk. Rinpoche said that when we see animals or people suffering with disease and without food we feel pity for them. But if only that animal or person in its or his/her previous life had realised then that whatever negative deeds that were being done in their previous life then they would not have taken such a bad rebirth. The present birth is a result of the cause of one’s previous actions – Karma. Hence Rinpoche always reminds us to practice dharma with correct motivations.

  16. antoinette on Apr 2, 2015 at 11:39 pm

    Dear Rinpoche,

    Thank You for this interesting story. To see this pig prostrating at the temple and listening to the prayers is really amazing. Karma is a fact no matter who we put it, in the end our attachments will bring us to the lower realms.

    This is a good teaching.

    And for the farmer, he should want to stop selling his animals and promote being vegetarian. I imagine that raising and selling animals for the food market for a living does not create good karma.

    May all beings be safe and meet the Dharma.

  17. Pastor Han Nee on Apr 2, 2015 at 2:51 pm

    Thank you, Rinpoche for sharing this story. It’s both touching and inspiring. This particular pig has transcended the norm of animal behavior. There must be very strong karmic imprints and connection with the Dharma and the Three Jewels from previous lives. It actually came to prostrate for many hours and received the monks’ blessings before leaving!

    May it have gone to a good human rebirth, with the purification it has done and with the blessing from the monks.

  18. pammie on Apr 2, 2015 at 2:00 pm

    How sad! I do believe that the pig knew it is almost time therefore he/she paid last respect to the Buddhas. And to have the monks chant scriptures onto him/her brought much blessings for future rebirths. Or maybe, he/she was an emanation of a higher being.
    Instead of killing more pigs, the farmer should repent and stop killing more. How sad that he did not.
    Animals definitely have feelings, we should not harm animals for the sake of our own attachments.

  19. Josh Akers on Mar 24, 2015 at 3:04 pm

    I do believe this pig was prostrating due to a previous life connection to the Dharma. Let’s hope his prayers were answered with a human rebirth.

  20. Phng Keng Hwa on Mar 22, 2015 at 9:48 pm

    Dear Rinpoche,

    This post was really astonishing. The pig was really astonishing! Perhaps he was praying for forgiveness on his bad actions and have realised that he deserves the life he/she had as a pig. The fact that he/she died right after this (I believe) must mean that Buddha has seen the genuine feelings the pig had and sent it into a better next life. This is my speculation. 🙂

    Your humble student,
    Keng Hwa.

  21. Low KHJB on Mar 21, 2015 at 11:59 pm

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing on such an incredible sight of an pig paying its respect to a holy site.
    I would think that the pig had a purpose to be there .If it were to be looking for food.For sure it would not have stayed there for hours in such a place filled with human presence.Pigs are shy creatures,they would normally run away if approach by strangers.
    The poor piggy probably had some recollection of its past lives .Most likely was a human who could not escape the cause and effect for his past negative karma .But retained some memories of his dharma practice.
    We certainly hope that after his passing in this latest form that he would be able to reincarnate again as a human with a chance to learn dharma again…..

  22. Lum Kok Luen on Mar 21, 2015 at 11:10 am

    This is really amazing. It is proof that this pig wanted to pay homage to a Buddhist temple and prostrate to the Three Jewels. But sad ending. Om Mani Padme Hung.

  23. Adeline Tan on Mar 20, 2015 at 3:03 pm

    This poor piggy’s fate would have been changed if Rinpoche knew about it or were there to witness the incident. May the pig take swift and good rebirth and be born in the human realm and have the opportunity to hear and practice the dharma in its next life. Om Mani Padme Hum!

  24. Adeline Tan on Mar 20, 2015 at 2:53 pm

    testing

  25. Uncle Eddie on Mar 20, 2015 at 12:58 pm

    Accordingly to the write-up, the owner of the pig seemed very regrettable for not learning of the pig’s “internet stardom act” before he butchered it, otherwise he would never have it killed. Co-incidentally, it seemed three thousand people reportedly attended and witnessed the astounded act at the temple, as it was the final day of confessions on Buddha’s Repentance day! What a great dharma that was. Om Mani Padme Hung.

  26. Edward Ooi on Mar 19, 2015 at 9:09 pm

    I don’t mean any offense but did the farmer really meant what he said? Because if he really felt guilty about killing it, what about killing other pigs/boars. We are supposed to think about every sentient being’s feeling, not just one because they are special or something. All lives is the same consciousness, the only difference is the body that they possess in. But in any cases, this pig is really special. I have no idea what the pig had in mind when it ran out of the farm and kneel down facing the temple. But I know that it must have been someone who loves the Dharma a lot. I would love to dedicate some of my merits to the pig so that may it take a good rebirth and be reborn as a human so that it is able to learn and practice the Dharma purely.

  27. Wah Ying on Mar 19, 2015 at 2:42 pm

    I feel like the pig is coming to do confession, and it seems like knowing that day is it’s doom day. If the pig is really suffering from a disease concerning a deficiency in vitamin E and having problem to stand up on all fours and kneel on one’s front legs..then why it wants to come to a temple to kneel down not in any spot of the village?

  28. Vinnie Tan on Mar 19, 2015 at 12:20 am

    It is really amazing the kind of Dharma imprints that is instilled in this pig. Through that it truly shows that animals do have emotions as well and they know what is going on, unlike what some people would be saying that animals do not have feelings and would not know what is happening.

    Through the actions I believe that this pig was not trying to escape its fate of being butchered by the end of the day, instead was to collect whatever merits that it could collect before it is being slaughtered. It is just really amazing to see even animals would be doing things like that.

    It makes me wonder why some people do not believe in past lives. Through this example, it is very obvious that reincarnation exist and that we should always be doing our best to collect merits so that we would not be born in the three lower realms when we pass away.

    Hopefully, the last prayers and blessing that this pig has collected through the body suffering (being in such unnatural position for 4 hours), being able to listen to the prayers that was made, and having the mantras being blown on it would help it to have a better rebirth in its next life.

      To add on to what you wrote: it truly shows that animals do have emotions as well and they know what is going on, unlike what some people would be saying that animals do not have feelings and would not know what is happening, I want to share something that I witnessed in Sarnath. This is where Lord Buddha went to after attaining enlightenment at Bodhgaya and it was there that he preached his first discourse in the deer park.

      Rinpoche was giving a teaching to a group of us at the deer park one evening on the nature of suffering and its causes and that we need to abandon the kinds of actions that cause the accumulation of suffering. There was a stray dog (in the audience)that sat quietly with us and appeared to be listening attentively to what Rinpoche was saying. When it came to the part when Rinpoche spoke about karma and what causes sentient being to be reborn as an animal, the dog got up and walked away. It was much later that he came back to join in the audience again.

      Everyone in our group saw that, including Rinpoche. We deduced that the dog understood what Rinpoche was saying, felt embarrassed of his present condition hence he walked away.

  29. Wei Theng on Mar 19, 2015 at 12:12 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this story.
    I think this pig may have some past life imprint for going to do prostration to Buddha. I’m sad that it was slaughtered but am glad at least it has done prostration and gotten the blessings from the monks before it passed away. May he have planted more seeds and imprint and have good rebirth in the next life that can be closed to Dharma. Om Mani padme hung

  30. nicholas on Mar 18, 2015 at 9:46 pm

    Even being an animal but this piggy would still have the karma to make his last respect to the Buddha. It’s bizarre to see this pic but personally for me it’s shows that regardless any realms karma does exist and if we realise it we should do what’s right before it’s too late. I’m happy for this piggy, able to pay respect to the buddha but i feel sad for it to be slaughtered.

    I hope the piggy will take a good rebirth and meet the buddha’s teaching in his next life.

  31. KYC on Mar 18, 2015 at 5:31 pm

    Another theory could be that imprints from its previous human life caused the pig to prostrate upon seeing a temple. There have been stories of pigs kneeling, apparently begging for mercy from the butcher just before being slaughtered. Amazing and sad indeed.

  32. Cynthia Lee on Mar 18, 2015 at 12:57 pm

    I feel this piggy knew his death was coming soon. Hence, he escaped to pay homage to the Buddhas because perhaps he had some past life connection with Buddhism. He seems satisfied after receiving blessings from the monks before moving on. This shows animals are without feelings and brainless moving objects which are god given as food which many people perceive. I pray he had a good rebirth.

  33. sandra on Mar 18, 2015 at 4:38 am

    aw poor piggy. Bless him, i am sure he was paying respects to the buddha.

  34. Joy on Mar 18, 2015 at 3:08 am

    Very sad no one helped the poor piggy and in the end he got slaughtered! Hope his visit to the temple gave him the merits to be reborn as a human in his next life and be connected to the Dharma. He seems like a highly intelligent one, who perhaps knew his life was about to end any time so he went to seek refuge or repentance at the temple? Whatever the case may be, this clearly shows that animals are not ignorant and if anything, some of them are even smarter than humans. Just cause they cannot speak our language does not mean they a dumb. I really really hope him being slaughtered got him a new better life! Om Mani Pedme Hum.

  35. Pema Thinley on Mar 17, 2015 at 11:27 pm

    This is unbelievable Rinpoche, i can only tell that he/she might had a more positive karma to be able to have even a little bit of sense to be humane. this incredible.

  36. HillHermit on Mar 17, 2015 at 10:35 pm

    Incredible. But how can we know what/who that pig really was and where it might have gone? Maybe its prayers *were* answered, and maybe s/he finds him/herself in Vajravarahi’s paradise; who knows? In my view, that “pig” was none other than Her. Feel more sorry for those left behind still deceived by appearances, and continuing to harm others. Glad the butcher regretted it at least. May all beings be safe and unharmed.

    • keng tan on Mar 17, 2015 at 11:43 pm

      Very good take on this. So absolutely “outside the box”.

    Due to the Dorje Shugden controversy many practitioners are still oppressed due to their choice of religion. Yet there are complaisant, and obliging people too who barely understand the situation, poorly informed of the issue and behave in a way they knew what’s going on regarding the ban on Dorje Shugden. There are many good bits of wisdom and worthy words in this article. Well-intentioned people make mistakes, lots of them. Mistakes must be expected and being held accountable for. Oppression will still exist no matter how compassionate sharing with others. If we are willing to risk making mistakes we can still do something. We must constantly try to find out ways to use our privilege to push forward the voice of the oppressed. Do not allow ourselves to be immobilized by lack of knowledge.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Sarah for this sharing.

    Inspiring read of Scott Neeson a most influential person in the movie industry,walked away from Hollywood to start a charity. Left everything he had built,been famous, wealthy and living a life of luxury for the sake of those children living in the slump in Cambodia. He decided to leave Hollywood behind and moved to Cambodia and founded Cambodian Children’s Fund . It was on a trip to Phnom Penh, Scott saw hundreds of children and their families living and working on the Steung Meanchey garbage dump, one of the most toxic environments. It was a moment that changed his life, helping thousands of vulnerable children and their families escape a world of forced labour, child trafficking and desperate poverty into safety and independence.

    Vairochana Shugden, pacifying form of Dorje Shugden is revered by many for his ability to purify one’s negative karma, pacify natural disasters and calamities. And is especially efficacious for overcoming illness and disease as well. Shize or Vairochana Shugden is the emanation of Dorje Shugden who embodies the enlightened activity of pacification. Shize’s practice is very effective in helping us to receive prophecies or develop clairvoyance. Shize’s practice is excellent for calming ourselves down and increasing our merits. His practice results in our minds becoming much happier and being alleviated from depressions. Wow we can also rely on Shize’s practice to overcome serious illnesses. It can also be engaged where the area, there are a lot of natural disasters. On the whole its practice has many benefits. When we do the practice correctly, with good motivation, Shize will bless and guide us.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great teachings on Shize who is a direct emanation of Dorje Shugden who is none other than the enlightened Manjushri.

    Interesting article. I never thought meditation can help oneself quit smoking without consumption of medication or drugs. According to an article in The Buddhist Review, not smoking is a result of developing calm and reducing clinging through authentic Dharma practice. Mindfulness-based interventions can help people learn to pay attention to and work with negative feelings, cravings, and other symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. By focusing on our breathing the mind becomes calm and single-pointed. Many are aware of the health risks and addictive properties of nicotine that are harmful. Buddhism is very effective to inspire transformation in people. Good read of how a Yale psychiatrist bringing together neuroscience and Buddhist practices to help people overcome their addictions. Thank you Dr. Judson for the great research work.

    Trode-khangsar a 400 year old Dorje Shugden Temple in Lhasa, had me having great memories. Having a privileged to visit it in May 2019,with my Dharma brothers and sisters. It such a Holy Temple with great stories behind it . Located in Lhasa, that is over 300 years old which is dedicated to the controversial protector deity Dorje Shugden. The Temple is a Gelugpa monastery of Tibetan Buddhism, built in the 17th century by the Fifth Dalai Lama. The Great 5th Dalai Lama composed a praise to Dorje Shugden and created a statue to honour and recognize him as a Dharma protector as apology. Trode Khangsar itself is now registered as a national heritage memorial. That’s awesome as more and more people will get to know about this Holy temple. Merely by looking at those fading murals and Holy statutes is a blessing for all who came to visit this Trode-khangsar. A place worth visiting.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    The concept of rebirth has a long association with Buddhism. Rebirth in Buddhism refers to the teaching that the actions of a sentient being lead to a new existence after death, in an endless cycle called saṃsāra. One will begins a new life in a new body that may be human, animal or spiritual depending on the moral quality of the previous life’s actions. What they are reborn as depends on their actions in their previous life rather kamma. As a Buddhist we should believe in rebirth but still many people don’t . Buddha taught us that choices of rebirth make a difference and can shape many lifetimes. Buddhists believe that nothing that exists is permanent and everything will ultimately cease to be. There is a belief in rebirth

    Against the odds two inspiring nuns fought all the way to become ordained, fighting for their rights to practice Buddhism . Interesting read of how they went through , bringing equality for women in Thailand. Buddhism is the predominant religion in Thailand. Officially, only men can become monks and novices in Thailand under a Buddhist order. The country does not recognize female monks or novices. In recent years, more Thai Buddhist women seeking to become full-fledged female monks, have been defying the tradition getting ordained overseas, in Sri Lanka or India. Buddhist women have been fighting for years for equality and social acceptance in Thailand. They just can’t be ordained by Thai monks. Ven. Dhammananda, 68 year old former university lecturer and activist became Thailand’s first Theravadin bhikkhuni after going the odds. Inspiring read biography on Ven. Dhammananda and Ven. Dr. Lee. They had gone through great hardships, discrimination and against the many odds in bringing equality to women in Buddhism in Thailand.

    The unseen things are spiritual realities that are eternal and invisible to our physical eye. There are many forces and phenomena that are not visible to the naked eye. There are many things that humans cannot see yet there are some could see. For what is can be seen is only. Things do exist even we can’t see, believing their existence is our choice. Things that we can’t see in the world opens up a curiosity and exploration by some. Whether through scientific inquiry, or spiritual exploration, the pursuit of knowledge about the unseen can lead to profound insights about ourselves and the universe.
    Malacca City is the historic capital of the coastal state of Malacca, in Malaysia serving as a link between east and west for over 500 years. Famous for breath-taking sights with rich heritage, ancient dark culture and history with many old centuries buildings with an interesting past and a colourful ghost story. For that reason alone it is worth visiting as is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site owing to its well-preserved historical center. There’s many historical mansions been passed down generation to generations and with many ghostly sighting by the locals and visitors. There’s the reason many unseen beings loitering and attached to these places. Such an interesting and incredibly creepy watching the video in this blog host by Li Kim. Li Kim had done a great work all along with her team to share with readers about our historic Malacca .
    Thank you Rinpoche and Li Kim for this sharing.

    Vajrayogini symbolizes the wisdom of all enlightened beings and embodies the impulse of inspiration that drives the Buddhas to attain the perfect enlightenment. Vajrayogini is one of the most effective practices for people today. We can make offerings such as gold or jewel offerings and so on. The offering of gold helps us to collect merits, spiritual attainments, gain a deeper connection to Vajrayogini. It also creates the causes to attain a Buddha’s body.
    Make Offerings to Vajrayogini in Kechara Forest Retreat at Bentong is such an meritorious way for us to collect merits. All thanks to our Guru having conceptualised the idea of having a statue of Vajrayogini for everyone . Recitation of Vajrayogini mantra can be a powerful tool for self-transformation, healing and liberation from samsara.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing with details explanation .

    Thank you, Rinpoche for sharing this insightful article. Life is short, and if we enjoy every moment of every day, then we will be happy no matter what happens or what changes along the way.What ever matter to us at the time of death is nothing. In the end, it’s not the years in our life that count it’s what you leave behind that matters. A great soul never dies. It brings us together again and again.Death is the golden key that opens the palace of eternity. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time. Learning Dharma and practicing dharma is the our choice that’s matter. Some of the key points to take notes, read, study the Lam Rim and apply it, engage in Sadhana daily and consistently. No one will help us at the moment of death but ourselves. Spiritual practicing is the best choice.

    Well the size of Buddha statues in Tibetan Buddhism is important because it represents the Buddha’s immense ability and vast knowledge. Hence the Buddha statues hold the symbol of satisfaction within, peace and happiness. They are a symbol of inspiration for every human being. When we focus on the Buddha statues, it gives us inner peace that our mind, our heart and our soul gets enlightened.
    We have are so fortunate seeing and circumambulating where the 9-foot Dorje Shugden statue and with 500 mantra stones engraved with Dorje Shugden’s sacred mantra. As Rinpoche had said before the bigger and more Buddha statues helps in planting seeds of enlightenment in people’s mind-streams. It also help us to generate as much merit and purify as much karma as possible. Merely by seeing all those big statues at Kechara Forest Retreat is a blessing.
    Thank you Rinpoche.

    The 4th Tagpu Pemavajra Jampel Tenpai Ngodrub, most commonly known as Tagpu Dorje Chang, was a highly accomplished yogi Highly attained lama who had many authentic visions of the Buddhas and even travel astrally to receive direct teachings from them. His recognised line of incarnations stem all the way back to the 14th Century. He is generally regarded as such amongst Gelug lineage holders. He spent most of his time in a hermitage located above Sera Monastery, gave teachings and transmitted many vital practices and lineages to his foremost student Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche. Besides receiving the complete instructions of Dorje Shugden’s practice, Tagpu Dorje Chang had many other mystical experiences throughout his lifetime. Interesting read biography of a highly accomplished mahasiddha lama.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing.

    n Tibetan culture, it is a popular and customary practice for families to invite monks to perform spiritual ceremonies such as Trusol rituals. The monks have had the opportunity to offer such ceremonies for individuals or their families. Such ceremonies purify the elements of the environment which helps those living or visiting there to experience good health, success and well-being. The sacred ritual of ‘bathing’ the Buddhas and consecration through which negativities, sicknesses and obstacles will be cleared. Where by filling those areas with positive energies and good vibes through this Trusol consecration puja. Water is an essential part of this puja and symbolises the cleansing of all negativities and impurities. Through this puja it also pacifies local deities and other unseen beings in the surrounding areas. We are indeed fortunate that Tsem Rinpoche has taught Kecharians this practice and it has benefited many.
    Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands

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

Emperor Shomu who sponsored this beautiful temple eventually abdicated and ordained as a Buddhist monk. Very interesting history and story. One of the places everyone should visit- https://bit.ly/2VgsHhK

    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
