I am very proud of them because they are the ones that represent Kechara Gompa Dept and all the teachings, pujas, rituals, talk are carried out in this Dept. So their work is essential as sort of the backbone of the Kechara House organization. Although all 12 departments are important, this group specifically takes care of this important dept.
I congratulate them for the term of their election they will be able to collect much merits and benefit others tremendously. I send my sincere and humble prayers to them all.

Wow! The newly elected committee on board in March 2010 under the leadership of Datuk May. So looks like now Sept 2010 it’s only about 6 months and there are already so many many progress & breakthrough achievements…from fundraising to making things happen. I can just imagine the amount of planning & discussion, brainstorming that went thru each meetings. Do read Rinpoche’s update on “what I am writing now” on the right hand side of the blog…you will notice that most of the times meetings can last thru the day till next early morning.
People who come to work full time in dharma and Kechara House are not there to look for glamour, position, acknowledgement or gifts. They joined because they can see the causes they are working for, which is to benefit others selflessly and not for their own.
They can be young, ageing, mature, old, single, married with children and out-of-place but they are a dedicated team. We all have our ups and downs with our personal issues but we don’t bring them in to dharma. In fact, doing dharma work heals us internally in our mind and soul. Being a part of this elected team of committee is an honor personally.
The Kechara committee members truly are sent from above. They are intelligent, hardworking, friendly and kind hearted all for the sake of benefiting everyone from far or near. They make sure that everything is in order and perfect so that the devotees that comes for the rituals, Dharma talks, pujas and teachings are comfortable and well attended to.
Look at how they organised Wesak Day celebrations (http://www.kechara.com/kechara-house/news/partying-with-the-buddhas-a-kechara-wesak-celebration/)on the field opposite Kechara’s Gompa. Unbelievably successful and job well done! Even the deities rejoiced in the hardwork by manifesting 2 rainbows.
Now with the renovations of the new Gompa (http://www.kechara.com/?p=5095), it will be more exciting as it will be able to accommodate more devotees and they are working harder to make sure the renovation is swift and free of obstacles. Well done!
Terima Kasih Rinpoche!
Having met most of the Committee members, it has been such an honor and privilege to have seen some of them in action and learn most of all from them qualities and skills that I don’t have and those that I do, to see how much further that can be refined and honed.
They have shown me that it is not about mere titles or honors nor even about pure financial gains. It has been nothing but hard but honest work, of service to others, commitment, sacrifice of self and so forth, some of the necessary qualities that brought them there as Committee in the first place and of course like any other organisation out there as it is to Kechara, these are essential to the success of realizing the vision and mission of Rinpoche.
Coupled and armoured with Dharma, it further sets them apart as Dharma Ambassadors to their own respective circles both on the micro and macro levels.
Truly, they deserve all support…yours and mine!
What an incredible opportunity to serve sentient beings; what an incredible opportunity to offer benefits immediate and ultimate happiness to sentient beings; what an incredible opportunity to purify and collect massive merits for oneself and for our family members; what an incredible opportunity to transform ourselves while learning dharma; what an incredible opportunity to practise dharma in a community support to benefit oneself and others; what an incredible opportunity to be able to connect with a Lama possessing the perfect 10 qualities rare to find; what an incredible opportunity to bring the sutric and tanric paths to others; that an incredible opportunity to become the committee members of Kechara House!
What a energetic group of KH committee members!
As Kechara is growing, these group play an important role to bring dhrama to many many people.
Among the group, many of them are full time in dharma, Becky, Louise, Nicholas, Henry, May Ong..etc

Each of them like they separate set of head and arms helping rinpoche to promote dharma. This year Wesak fair was the huge success turns out for the newbies come to know about Kechara organization.

Kudos to their dedication and devotion to the rinpoche to provide space for people can learn about Lama Tsongkhapa teaching at Kechara organization.

This group of people is indeed very inspiring, Kechara House is a place where dharma teaching is conducted, and this is a place where dharma will spread to many people’s heart.
It take a lot of merits for us to be able to work in a dharma centre, as this is a very meaningful job where it will definitely benefit a lot of people, a place to help people to come out from their delusion mind, a great place for a dharma practitioner to practice.
When we work by ourselves, the amount of work we can handle is very limited, but when we work in a group, then the result will changed, especially Gompa is now in charge by this group of devoted committee, dharma’s growth in this degenerate age will be tremendous.
I am truly inspired by my fellow dharma brothers and sisters at Kechara House for their selfless contribution to make the organisation grow and benefit more people. More so now than before as society is getting more degenerate by the decade. And how can we ever thank Rinpoche enough for the compassion shown to all.
