How Much Do You Know About Hair?

Hair is predominantly made up of Dead Cells. As new cells die inside our scalp, they are pushed to the end of the hair follicle and emerge as a compressed matter called Keratin. Tiny blood vessels at the base of every follicle feed the hair root to keep it growing.

But once the hair is at the skin’s surface, the cells within the strand of hair aren’t alive anymore. Hence, hair should be well cared for if optimal style and condition needs to be achieved.

 

What Type of Hair Do You Have?

Hair is usually categorised according to its thickness and texture.

Hair thickness can be categorised as fine, medium or thick.

Hair texture can be categorised as straight, wavy, curly or kinky.

Understanding your hair type will help you manage it well. Different types of hair need different forms of care. This is with respect to both hygienic care as well as aesthetic purposes.

With regards to hygiene, the general questions are how often should you wash your hair? The optimal answer depends on the type of scalp and lifestyle of the person.

 

Types of Hair Textures and Their Care

 

Straight Hair

This is the most common hair texture and hairstyle. There are different types of straight hair.

How to Identify:

hairb

  • Type 1 is completely flat and has little or no body. It has difficulty holding a curl. Common with Asian people.
  • Type 2 is straight but can hold a curl. It sporadically bends here and there and turns in at the ends.
  • Type 3 is generally straight but has more bends and when dried gives a tousled look without the use of any tools. This type of hair tends to be thicker and coarser.

Common Problems:
In general, straight hair is flat and limp. It is a challenge to make it voluminous as it does not hold volume.

Advantages:
Sleek and glossy look. For those who like the straight and flat look, this is the perfect wash and go hairstyle.

Care Tips:
Straight hair can be cared for using a mild shampoo. Heavy moisture/oil-based shampoos are not suitable as they will further flatten the hair texture and look. For long straight hair, conditioner on the ends is sufficient. The hair should be kept as neutral as possible in order to enhance its lightness and shine. During styling, if curling tongs and heavy blowdrying is involved, a heat protection product must be used to protect the hair from heat damage.

Style Tips:
hairAStraight flat hair is not suitable for those with a round or chubby face as the flatness will emphasise the roundness of the face. In this case, volume must be added to the hairstyle to compliment the round face. Volume can be added via skilful cutting; otherwise a perm will be the best solution. Colour highlights may be added to give the illusion of volume.

 

Wavy Hair

Wavy hair gives the most natural look. Wavy hair also comes in different categories.

How to Identify:

hair 0.8

  • Type 1 wavy hair is loose and non-frizzy with light S-shaped curls with a beach look. It is easily weighed down by styling products.
  • Type 2 wavy hair has slightly tighter waves which are clearly defined and may look frizzy if there is a lack of moisture. This type can be controlled by texturisers and gels.
  • Type 3 wavy hair has tight waves that form loose spirals. It is generally frizzy and bouncy. This type of hair needs more moisture. Control with gel products will give optimal results.

Common Problems:
Frizziness will set in if the hair lacks moisture or is not looked after correctly.

Care Tips:
An average moisture-based shampoo will be the best for wavy hair and conditioning is necessary too. Texturise the hair after washing with another light to medium-weight leave-in moisturiser to keep it conditioned and glossy. For longer hair, do a weekly hair mask to ensure good levels of moisture to keep the waves healthy and natural looking.

Style Tips:
hair 0.9This hair type is usually light and bouncy with natural volume. Short, medium or long styles can be easily created. Always use some leave-in products like moisturisers and hair oils. Using a diffuser to dry the hair will also give it a nice natural tousled look. Otherwise, blow dry using large round brushes to give it a smoother voluminous look.

 

Curly Hair

How do we differentiate curly hair from wavy hair? These two terms are often used interchangeably but in actual fact, they are different in terms of curl tightness, thickness and texture. Curly hair will have a tighter S-shape which holds a curl pattern even when unstyled.

How to Identify:
Curly hair consists of different degrees of curliness. It ranges from wavy to loose to tight curls and can even get kinky and frizzy.

Common Problems:
Curls usually impart a somewhat messy feel. However for those who like volume, you will have an abundance of it. Curly hair is greatly affected by the weather as well, predominantly by the moisture levels in the atmosphere. In high humidity areas, curly hair will be more frizzy.

Care Tips:
In general, curly hair needs a lot of moisturising especially at the ends. Opt for sulphate free shampoos to give the best curl results. A satin sleep cap or pillowcase will also protect your precious curls all night long from getting frizzy or flat.

Those with curly hair should not use hairbrushes. Instead, use a wide-toothed comb or just comb your fingers through your hair.

Caring for curly hair can be quite interesting as it may not follow the norm. Certain types of curly hair cannot be washed too often with shampoo. There’s a concept known as “Co Washing” which means using conditioner to wash the hair instead of shampoo, which can produce beautifully nourished curls. Conditioner does contain a very small amount of detergent.

However, if the scalp is suffering from oiliness, dandruff or sensitivity, co washing is not recommended. In this case, one can alternate co washing with normal washing as the scalp needs to be clean to avoid further problems. Co washing conditioners are available in the market.

Style Tips:
Curly hair is better suited to longer styles if one is not keen to spend time on styling the hair. Alternatively it is nice in a tight crop style. Otherwise, it has to be styled to look fashionable and orderly. There is a wide choice of equipment and gadgets in the market to help style curly hair; examples are straightening irons, curling irons, electrical curling brushes, hot rollers, etc.

Use a diffuser when blowdrying curly hair. For best results, leave the hair to dry naturally. In addition, twisting the hair in small clumps will keep it less frizzy. Use water soluble gels or a light mousse to give it control and hold.

Types of Scalp Conditions

Oily Scalp

If you have an oily scalp, wash daily with a shampoo that will clean your scalp well but not strip off all the nutrients from your hair. Oily scalps are caused by excessive sebum from overactive sebaceous glands. If the oil is not properly cleaned off, it will clog up the hair follicles, weaken them and result in hair loss.

Oily scalps are common amongst men. Ladies with long hair also tend to have a combination of oily scalps and dry ends. Oily scalps are more common in those living in hot climates.

If you have a combination of an oily scalp and dry hair, take special note to use a shampoo for oily scalps and combine it with a conditioner that is suitable for dry ends. Extra leave-in conditioner can also be used on the ends to give it more moisture and prevent split ends.

Those with oily scalps will struggle to maintain the form or shape of their hairstyle, as the top of the head will generally look flat and “wet”. Hence, choose a hairstyle that has a shorter top, opt for a fringe or bangs to provide volume. The hair of those with oily scalps is good for colouring, perming and other chemical processes, as the sebum provides a good layer of protection and the hair is less likely to be damaged by the chemicals. Hence, if your top is flat and oily, do a perm to give it a natural root lift, to enhance your hairstyle and overall look.

Flaky Scalp

Flaky/scaly scalp can be categorised as Seborrheic dermatitis, Scalp psoriasis or Eczema. The general term is dandruff. The underlying cause could be the immune system triggering excessive growth of cells, a fungal or bacteria infection, or just simply an allergic reaction, all of which can result in redness, itching and flakiness.

Flaky scalps can occur on both dry and oily scalps. If the scalp is very dry, use an anti-dandruff shampoo that can exfoliate the flakes and wash your hair at least three times a week. In some cases, one may feel sore or sensitive after the exfoliation. Apply a soothing scalp conditioner to calm the soreness and provide a balance to the scalp.

If the scalp is oily, exfoliation and deep cleansing are necessary and daily washing is recommended. Excessive sebum and flakes on the scalp can hamper its growth and health, resulting in hair loss and unhealthy hair.

Flaky scalp can be embarrassing as the flakes may fall onto your clothes and give you an unpleasant look. Hence many are shy to admit that they are having dandruff. Dandruff isn’t caused by poor hygiene, although it may be more obvious if you don’t wash your hair regularly. Stress and cold weather may also make it worse.

Dandruff may disappear after treatment and correct usage of shampoos and anti-dandruff products. However, it may often reemerge again every now and then depending on various conditions. This type of scalp situation is difficult to cure and a ritual for prevention must be done regularly i.e. use anti-dandruff products the moment you see the flakes.

Hair Loss

Hair loss is another serious concern. There are many reasons that can result in hair loss. It is primarily related to ageing and genetics. Hair loss can also occur due to hormonal imbalances, stress, childbirth, burns, injuries and X-rays. Medical conditions such as cancer, lupus, thyroid, diabetes, iron deficiency and auto-immune diseases as well as eating disorders and low protein diets can also lead to hair loss. Hair loss can also arise from an unhealthy scalp due to oiliness and dandruff.

For men, the most common form of hair loss is male pattern baldness. Male pattern baldness is related to the genes and male sex hormones. It usually begins with a receding hairline at the temples to form an “M” shape with thinning hair on the crown. During the initial stages, a skilful haircut can help to camouflage the baldness. Male pattern baldness can set in as early as the teenage years though it is more common in adults, with the likelihood increasing with age. Genetics also plays a big role. Men who have close relatives with male pattern baldness are at higher risk. This is particularly true when their relatives are on the maternal side of the family.

On average, we have 100,000 to 150,000 hairs on our heads. Each day, an average of 100 hairs will fall out. We may not notice this as they do not all fall out at once but throughout the day. So how do you know if your hair is falling or not? The most simple test is to run your hands through your hair. If your hair comes out easily without any tugging and happens each time you run your fingers through your hair, then most likely you are having some form of hair loss. You can also go to the professionals to have your hair and scalp scanned. If the results show weak follicles and thinning strands, then likely there is hair loss too.

However, some types of hair loss are temporary especially those related to childbirth and hormonal changes. Caring for hair loss with appropriate products can stop the hair fall and in some cases, rejuvenate new growth too. For very serious balding, hair transplants via grafting can also be done.

Sensitive Scalp

Many people experience sensitivity, tenderness or soreness on their scalps. This may or may not result in flakes. This sensitive scalp condition can result from stress, changes in climate, changes in water content in different countries, hormonal imbalances and allergies. The scalp becomes reddish and feels sore or sensitive to the touch or products. This is usually short term and the scalp will normalise with time. However, during the period when it is sore, we can use a scalp calming shampoo, conditioner and scalp tonic to ease the sensitivity. Chemical processes like colours or perms should be avoided if the scalp is in a sensitive state, otherwise the condition will worsen.

Other Scalp Conditions

Some of the rarer scalp conditions that you may experience are ringworm (more common in children), cysts and folliculitis (inflammation of the hair follicles due to products or shaving which will result in little pus bumps like pimples). All these conditions can be treated by the doctor.

Lice contamination in hair can also occur in children or adults. The symptoms include itchiness, soreness in serious cases, a ticklish sensation on the scalp and the appearance of lice eggs (white substances on the scalp and hair). Some may not realise they have lice contamination until six weeks into the infection. Lice infestations are highly contagious via sharing of personal belongings like hair brushes or combs, hair clips, hats, pillows and sheets. Hair lice can be treated with anti-lice solutions that come with a special lice comb. This is easily purchased from a chemist/pharmacy. Family members of the infected person should also treat their hair as a preventive measure.

More Factors

Other factors which affect the scalp and hair are:

  • Lifestyle: If you live a very active outdoor lifestyle, then a daily wash will be necessary to keep your hair clean. Otherwise it is good enough to wash your hair three to four times a week.
  • Health: Medicines and drugs may effect the condition of your scalp and hair.
  • Age: Common hair challenges resulting from ageing are greying and hair loss.
  • Chemical Treatments: If you often subject your hair to colors, perms and straightening processes, then extra care rituals have to be observed. For instance, use appropriate shampoos, conditioners, texturisers, masks, heat protection products and scalp tonics that are suitable to optimise your style. Regular in-salon tailor-made rituals give great results too.

 

More Care Tips

It’s common to spend more time and money on our face and less on our hair. This concept should change. An effective routine should be set for caring for the scalp and hair. A detailed scalp and hair diagnosis can be done in a professional salon and a customised ritual can be recommended to clients to guide them on how to care for their scalp and hair. Hair plays a big part in achieving the perfect look! It is after all our crowning glory.

  • Choose a shampoo that suits your scalp condition. If you have a normal scalp, then choose a shampoo that is suitable for your hair type.
  • Avoid using very hot water to wash your hair.
  • If your scalp is dry, condition it with a scalp conditioner or scalp masque. If your scalp is oily or if your hair is falling, do not condition your scalp.
  • Lessen the usage of high heat tools when styling your hair. In particular, do not use them on a regular basis without using heat protection products.
  • Hair generally needs conditioning especially on longer lengths. If your hair is chemically treated with a colour, perm or straightener, extra care needs to be put in to ensure it is healthy and glossy.
  • If you intend to do more than one chemical process, schedule them in the correct sequence. The general rule is to always do your hair colour last. Also, space out the timing of these processes.
  • When problems arise, do not procrastinate getting a solution from the professionals. If the problems are ignored, they can become chronic and it will be much harder to treat.
  • It is also important to maintain a nutritious diet and a healthy lifestyle in order to have great hair.

    I always thought I am so called blessed with nice hair count and quality. I never bothered much about maintaining it though but after reading this article, thanks to you Grace, now I know where to have my hair cut and treated for your professionalism and talent dealing with hairs. Interesting article which provides all sorts of tips for us to maintain it.

  2. Wei Theng on May 8, 2017 at 9:31 pm

    Thank you Grace for sharing on different types of hairs & scalp. It is very detailed and informative. As there are so many types of shampoo available in the market, i learned that we should “Choose a shampoo that suits your scalp condition. If you have a normal scalp, then choose a shampoo that is suitable for your hair type.” Treat the scalp first then on the hair type.

    Thanks Grace!

  3. Andrea Lai on May 7, 2017 at 12:09 am

    I think my hair is the typical type. In my teenage, my hair is rough, thick and many. As I grow older, my hair quality starts reducing due to too much chemical treatment such as hair dye and perm. As a result, my hair suffered dry and split ends. Much information I received advice from hairstylist was never rub your hair with towel because the force fricative between hair and towel will damage hair moisture which later caused split ends.
    To prevent my hair from further damaged, I only used olive oil to maintain my hair moisture. Thank you Grace for sharing your knowledge and some hair tips in this article.

  4. Pastor David Lai on May 6, 2017 at 8:00 am

    Interesting article that’s different. I think I experience hair thinning, which i think I get it from my maternal side as my mom experience the same thing in her younger years. I don’t really have male pattern balding. What I experience is literally thinning of my hair and the fact that they are getting more sparse especially around the crown area of my head. I guess eventually, I would have to go bald as my hair would become more and more sparse.

    On the other hand, I also have grey hair as more and more of my hair are turning white over time. This process began way in my teenage years but have become particularly pronounce in recent years, probably owing to my irregular sleeping pattern and diet. I used to dye it a lot but I have decided to let it turn naturally white. I guess, as I get older, I just prefer a simple daily regiment and let nature takes it course.

  5. Cynthia Lee on May 2, 2017 at 5:23 am

    Thank you Grace for the insightful sharing. Not only do I suffer from very fine hair, but I suffer from very oily scalp. Hopefully one day I am brave enough to shave it all off like the monks and nuns. In the meantime, tips as simple as choosing the right shampoo and avoiding very hot water for oily scalp definitely help without too much effort. Life is about a balance. We should look presentable yet not spend all our time looking good.

  6. KarenC on May 2, 2017 at 3:14 am

    Dear Grace, thanks for the informative article. I understand more about my hair now and how to tackle my scalp problem that bothers me for long time. Many of us when deal with hair/scalp problem, we do not really research enough to understand the root of problem and yet we keep on trying different products in the market hoping to solve our problem, it’s really important to read up and understand if we want a real solution to our problem, so thanks for this article 🙂

  7. Fong on May 2, 2017 at 12:27 am

    Wow, I knew hair care was complex but never truly appreciated it true depth and breadth. The last point to note ass stated in the list “It is also important to maintain a nutritious diet and a healthy lifestyle in order to have great hair.” is what most people would overloook. What a tell-tale sign that is to have hair that is less than lustrous, that it is time to make an appointment with your primary healthcare personnel.

    This is also great to know, as then we can look out for other members of the family such that we can help them better to stay healthy.

    Thank you, Grace for the great tips.

  8. William Chua on Apr 25, 2017 at 5:12 pm

    Thank you Grace for sharing your experience and knowledge on hair. The hair care tips are very useful for me as it make me aware on how to care for my thinning hair better. We should not have attachments on our hair but we still need to look presentable for someone who is practicing Dharma so that we can be an example for others to follow.

  9. Stella Cheang on Apr 25, 2017 at 4:10 pm

    Thank you, Grace, for sharing with us the many tips on how to care for and maintain our hair. Personal grooming is important because when we care for our appearance, we are respecting the people who have to deal with us. Caring for our hair, making sure that it is neat and clean should be something we need to take care of since young as it is part of personal grooming. The key is not to be attached to our body and outer-images, that results in spending much time and resources just to make ourselves look good.

  10. Anne Ong on Apr 24, 2017 at 10:26 pm

    Thank you Grace for this interesting informative article about hair. There is really a lot of knowledge and tips to learn from your write up and from someone whom i can really trust with such experience! Thanks again for your wonderful effort 🙂

  11. Echeah on Apr 24, 2017 at 6:04 pm

    Thanks Grace for this informative article. First impressions count when people size you up and hair is often noticed first. I think the greatest fear of most people is hair loss. Other hair problems like greying, dandruff, oiliness, texture etc, can be treated or is not unacceptable, but hair loss is dreaded as there is nothing much you can do about it and it’s a dead end! Yes there is perhaps transplantation or wigs, but not really the same as the real crowning glory and it comes at a cost. It also becomes the butt of people’s jokes. Nice hair comes with praise and admiration. But the underlying issue is the ego, right? If there was none, none of it would matter.

  12. wan wai meng on Apr 24, 2017 at 2:15 am

    Thank you Grace for sharing your insights into people’s hair and the various way to keep it healthy, and how to look as perfect as we can. As our appearance is the first thing people will come in contact with, and it is always good to make a good impression.

  13. Vivian Ong on Apr 24, 2017 at 12:02 am

    Thank you Grace for this informative sharing about our hair. After reading through this article, I learn something from it. I can share this article with family members and friends who problem with their hair or scalp. Thank you for the useful tips too.

    With folded palms,

  14. Lin Mun on Apr 23, 2017 at 7:16 pm

    Thank you Grace for this interesting articles about hair. There are just so much info which we do not know previously. Most of the time we may neglect the details, thinking as long as we clean our hair everyday it is sufficient. But there are so many things we need to know for example types of hair, scalp condition, our environment and our physical condition which may affect our hair. Great tips.

  15. Datuk May on Apr 23, 2017 at 3:05 pm

    Every human being’s crowning glory is that headful of hair. It is so beneficial that we in Kechara, a diverse organisation, have various professional Buddhist members, resulting in having this very extensive article of advices for us to maintain our crowning glory.

    It is the amazing diversity of interests, that our Guru has created that benefits all both physically and spiritually that makes https://www.tsemrinpoche.com a living temple of empowerment.

    Visiting Tibet, holy Gaden Monastery is everyone dream and a once life time. Of course if we have the means to visit again will be great. End of December 2008 and early January 2009 our Guru H E Tsem Rinpoche with a small group students visited Tibet. Thousands of pilgrims, visitors and tourists around the world have visited this incredible holy land for the last 600 years. Tsem Rinpoche visited Tibet for the first time with an oxygen tank. I am fortunate to visit this holy place with my Dharma brothers and sisters years back.
    With our Guru blessing we went without any without any hitch. Visited most of the monasteries and could feel the powerful energies there. Looking at those pictures in this blog reminds me of trip there.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Interesting….. a ground breaking documentary by world BBC where everyone should watch. BBC did mentioned and documented that Jesus was a Buddhist monk and that he had spent some years in India. I would not know about this till I came across this blog. Many people most probably too. Interesting watch one should not miss. Jesus was a religious leader revered in Christianity, one of the world’s major religions. He is regarded by most Christians as the Incarnation of God. Historical evidence indicates that Jesus was well acquainted with Buddhism. Historical evidence indicates that Jesus knew about Buddhism. Other evidence, while perhaps apocryphal, indicates that he spent most of his so-called lost years outside Judea, possibly in Kashmir to study Buddhism exclusively.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    The Great Buddhas of Bamiyan were two monumental Buddhist statues built around 600 CE. A holy site for Buddhists on the Silk Road, historically a caravan route linking the markets of China with those of the Western world. The two most prominent statues were the giant standing sculptures of the Buddhas .It was the site of several Buddhist monasteries where monks at the monasteries lived as hermits. It was until in 2001, both statues were destroyed by the Taliban . Before being blown up in 2001, they were the largest examples of standing Buddha carvings in the world .Buddhism was eliminated in Afghanistan by the 13th century during the Mongol conquests. Sadly all statues depicting humans in Afghanistan was destroyed. They were perhaps the most famous cultural landmarks of the region, and the site was listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Despite the Buddhas’s destruction, the ruins continue to be a popular culture landmark, where many locals, pilgrims and tourist visit the site.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting blog.

    Ven. Kyabje Yongyal Rinpoche was born in Eastern Tibet, recognized as the fourth reincarnation of Kyabje Yongyal Rinpoche. Well he was known for his purity in holding his vinaya vows. Even though he left Tibet in 1959 and settled in India, he had inspired, and supported the Sangha community, working tirelessly giving teachings at Sera Monastery in India .

    The general preliminaries are the four contemplations on precious human body, impermanence and death, cause and effect of karma, and the defects of samsara. The special preliminaries are taking refuge, arousing bodhicitta, the recitation and meditation of Vajrasattva, mandala offerings, and guru yoga.The purpose of life is to benefit other sentient beings and the greatest benefit we can offer them is to liberate them from their suffering and its causes. We have to purify all the negative karma and defilements we have collected over our beginning-less rebirths and accumulate extensive merit. These are the conditions necessary for us to actualize the path. Well we have received just this once the most precious human life ,we have to make our life as meaningful as possible. The purpose of doing preliminary practices is for us to purify obstacles to achieving realizations of the path to enlightenment for the sake of all sentient beings. I am still doing my best .
    Great sharing thank you Rinpoche and Pastor David for this important write up .

    The Heart Sutra teaches emptiness through the epitome of compassion. It is often said that, the heart of emptiness is compassion. It’s an attribute by which we sees the suffering of another and experiences true empathy for them. This empathy, in turn, leads the person to reach out and share in the person’s suffering. By helping them to endure whatever they are going through regardless of race and religion. Our prime purpose in this life is to help and benefit others. Well if we can’t help them, at least don’t hurt them. Treat others as we would like others to treat us. Always wish upon others and showing kindness to those who are feeling sad or upset to help them feel better. Lend a shoulder to them to lean on. Emptiness can be explored through meditation and contemplation. By observing the impermanence and interdependence of all things, we can gradually come to understand the true nature of reality. We have to understand the actual words of the Heart Sutra and its meaning within the Buddhist tradition as well as the meanings of emptiness. Will revisit this blog to read, learn more .
    Thank you Rinpoche for this profound teachings.

    The concept of Dharma is considered to be accessible and applicable to everyone, regardless of their religious background. Dharma, in its essence, is about understanding and living in accordance with universal principles of righteousness and ethical conduct. The core of the doctrine of dharma, especially in Buddhism, is about understanding the nature of suffering, the cause of suffering, the possibility of ending suffering, and the path to liberation through ethical conduct, mindfulness, and wisdom. Dharma is the essential teachings to transform our mind towards that of an enlightened being. Learning and putting what we learn into practice helped us to become a better person. Dharma is for everyone, reading those stories as in the blog give us a clear understanding. Nor matter what religion we are , we are taught to be loving, compassion and living peacefully.
    Thank you Rinpoche for these great teachings.

    Generosity is giving more than we can, and pride is taking less than we need. Giving is an action; generosity is a matter of the heart. Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present. Sharing one’s resources and helping others in need. We have not lived today until we have done something for someone who can never repay you. A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this article.

    n Buddhism, Dharma refers to the teachings of the Buddha and the true nature of reality. It also encompasses principles like the Eightfold Path, which guides individuals towards enlightenment and liberation from suffering. A Dharma attitude involves fulfilling one’s responsibilities and duties towards oneself, others, and the environment. Dharma work helps us to focus on benefiting others instead of ourselves. Each one of us has different ideas, approaches and methods to do dharma work. As long as its benefits others and
    taking responsibility for our own actions transforming others with love and generosity. It is important to embrace our imperfections as embracing puts us on a better path of acceptance and self-discovery.

    Buddhism is one of the most ancient belief systems and is practiced today by nearly 350 million people around the world.
    Bettany Mary Hughes is an English historian, author, and broadcaster, specialising in classical history. Bettany Hughes travelled to the seven wonders of the Buddhist world. Where she documented a unique insight into the seven wonders that explained the long and rich history of Buddhism 2500 years ago . Truly fascinating documentary that’s one should watch. Started off her journey with Bodh Gaya in India, the Bodanath Stupa in Nepal, the Temple of The Tooth in Sri Lanka, Wat Pho Temple in Thailand, Angkor Wat in Cambodia, the Giant Buddha in Hong Kong and the Hsi Lai Temple in the United States. At each location, she meets with Buddhist scholars who explain the different concepts that form the core of Buddhist philosophy, giving insight into the long and rich history of Buddhism. Interesting sharing.
    Thank you Rinpoche.

    Religious discrimination remains a significant issue globally, impacting various aspects of life. The Dorje Shugden controversy in Tibetan Buddhism involves accusations of religious discrimination against devotees of the Poweful Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden. Dorje Shugden was a powerful Protector associated with the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. H H the Dalai Lama previously practice Dorje Shugden’s practice but somehow later discouraged the practice, citing concerns about sectarianism ,its perceived role as a spirit. Dorje Shugden’s practitioners have reported feeling ostracized and discriminated against by the Central Tibetan Administration (CTA) and those supporting the Dalai Lama. The controversy has divided the Tibetan community and has been a source of contention and tension. CTA had breached the rights of every Dorje Shugden practitioners to what they pray . Many families are torn apart by this. Dorje Shugden people had to break away from their monasteries .Religious freedom and human rights are interconnected. Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion regardless of race and faith. Religious freedom is one of the most fundamental of human rights. The discrimination that Dorje Shugden practitioners are experiencing today has similarities to other historic bigotry and prejudices such example was the African American Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s,and the Women’s Suffrage Movement. Racism affects virtually every country in the world. It denies people their full human rights just because of their colour, race, ethnicity, descent or national origin. The most prevalent discrimination that we see today are national origin and race discrimination. May there be peace,unity, harmony and based on compassion, acceptance and universal freedom of religious choice without discrimination or recriminations of any kind.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    The Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Kerala, India is said to be thousands of years old, built in the Dravidian style, and houses more secrets than most people can ever dream of. That’s interesting. This temple is a legendary secret chamber that has remained unopened for centuries. Legends and local beliefs it is protected by powerful deities and a curse. The door is said to be sealed with a mystical spell, and it is believed that anyone attempting to open it without proper rituals will face grave consequences, having met with mysterious deaths or terrible misfortune. Locals had warns that attempting to open Vault B without proper rituals and respect for the deities could unleash untold calamities and misfortune. Stories abound of previous attempts to open the vault had failed that resulted in terrifying visions and other supernatural occurrences, and tragic fates for those involved. Some believe that the vault contained ancient treasures , wealth and divine relics . Previously temple workers reportedly tried to force open the door, resulting in the terrifying experiences described in legends. It’s not just a place of worship but also a vault of mysteries. Modern attempts using technology have also failed to open the door, as if some force is protecting it. Every attempt to open Vault B has failed. The door remains closed, and no one know of the contents within, whether wealth, divine relics, or something else entirely, are unknown to the world . No one dare to try opening it since at least the 1880s recording to reports. Interesting article .
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Revisit this interesting truth where not many people knew the actual story behind . With great effort and research finally the story unfolded. In Tibet, Oracles play, an important part in principal roles assisting governmental decision-making and providing intelligence revelation, religion, doctrine, and prophecy. To this day the Tibetan government still believe and rely in Nechung Oracle. When Nechung oracle took trance, it is actually spirit Nyatrul who has causes problems and misprophecies. Nechung is bound by oath to protect the Dharma. Nechung prophecies are unreliable, most probably given by Nyatrul spirit to the Tibetan government. Such as wrong medication given to the 13 th Dalai Lama as prescribed by the Nechung Oracle. Another misprophecies was during the British invasion. If it was really Nechung who took trance of the Oracle, these types of misprophecies would not have happen. As mentioned in the 6th Dalai Lama biography, we cannot trust or rely on Nechung’s prophecies. It was said that Nyatrul not Nechung who created the problems and harm to Dorje Shugden . It must have told HH the Dalai Lama to ban Dorje Shugden .
    Thank you Rinpoche and Pastor Jean Ai for this interesting article.

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
