A Sincere Email from CK Liew
Dearest Rinpoche,
In the most humble manner, I am glad the conditions now enable anyone to get in touch easily with a Great Teacher as yourself. In hopes my email to you will not cost much of your precious time.
I am CK Liew. Today (1st May 2010) was really an auspicious day for my entire family, after 1 week of waiting finally Lord Setrap towering and powerful present entered our home. With a lot of kindness and love from Su Ming, James and Albert, the whole ceremony was really smooth and memorable! My family and I are truly happy and blessed today to have received the teachings advice from You to have Lord Setrap in our home. We shall and vowed to pray sincerely and have full faith in Dharmapala Setrap from now onwards until the very end!
The energy of Su Ming is truly amazing, she is such a kind hearted and a person that takes everything she does with full of convictions and passion. James on the other hand is such a loving person, his dedication towards Rinpoche, towards Su Ming as his superior and in his work in undeniable truly can be seen with naked eyes. As for Albert, a person that opens my doorway to Kechara 2 years back, my fullest gratitude to him. It is him that introduces me to Lord Dzambala and I invited Lord Dzambala to my business outlet 2 years ago. It took me two years later to be back in to Kechara and i am glad that I have decided to volunteer and dedicate more and more time for building my spirituality side. As you always said, the planting of a seed. My seed has just started to grow.
Rinpoche, the reason for my email is to tell you how fortunate I have been to have taken refuge under you, henceforth i shall keep my refuge vows at all cost, keep my samaya clean and hopefully one day I will be able to serve you like all your other students & liaisons. I know from your teachings that the greatest gift to a Lama is not the most expensive gift in this mundane world but is the Guru Devotion towards one Guru for the rest of your life.
Rinpoche lastly, I thank you from the very bottom of my heart for spreading the very profound teaching of Tibetan Buddhism to everyone that wishes to learn in Malaysia and all around the world. Thank you for your sacrifices, thank you for your hard work and thank you for your loving, kindness, compassions and sincerity that I have found in You.
May I wish and shall pray every day for your Long Life to stay long to teach us the Dharma, May the manifestation of KWPC comes swiftly and May Kechara organisation your lifelong work remains even after you have passes on for years and years to come
I have yet to directly offer any offerings to you even though you never need it, I do understand why do we offer gift to Rinpoche, but to start it off I have attached the translation of Heart Sutra in this email for you so that you may one day teaches this amazing text to me and many many more tantras and sutras to all of us.
May Rinpoche be BLESS always by the NOBLE TRIPLE GEMS / THREE JEWELS.
May I for the 1st time address You as my Root Guru. In hope you will accept me. 🙂
Yours Sincerely,
Liew Chee Khoi.

This is an email from CK. Liew who has taken Refuge from Rinpoche and is now a student and member of Kecbhara House. His email has shown he is very grateful to Rinpoche and Rinpoche’s students like Su ming, James and Albert who has been nurturing and helping him. Albert who has introduced him Lord Dzambala to his business outlet 2 years ago. CK Liew is very devoted and loved Rinpoche very much. He also has offered to do volunteer work in Kechara. And has offcially requested Rinpoche to be his Root Guru and has said and wished that he keep his Samaya clean and hope one day to serve Rinpoche like his students and Liasons.
Something to share about Liew.
Liew came through the doors of Kechara a year plus ago via Kechara Paradise. At that time he was not very active but he likes us.
Then 4 months ago when I met him during the Kechara Care Mini Tour. He brought his parents along. When he told me that his father was scheduled to go for a heart surgery, I immediately recommended him to attend the Chinese Setrap Puja every Tuesday at KH. Then Rinpoche personally gave Liew and his father some advice related to their Setrap practice for them to do before the surgery. Both of them had no buts or if and they immediately started the practice. There was not question, just complete faith towards Rinpoche.
The surgery was postponed for a couple of time and just recently, he went for THE SURGERY as his heart arteries was 80% blocked. Through Liew and his father merits, Rinpoche could visit the father in the hospital the night before the surgery to bless him. The surgery went on smoothly and after 5 days later, the father was discharged. The family and the hospital staff were amazed with the recovery rate of Liew’s father. Now, the father is resting at home.
Liew has been and is a very filial son. On top of this, he works hard for the dharma by volunteering CONSISTENTLY with us almost every week without fail. He is a successful young entrepreneur but he managed to prioritize his time so that he can do more dharma work.
Thank u
Thank you for that little note above but comes with ‘big efforts’.
A quick reminder to me that I must continue to do Dharma. Not to give up easily, stick with one Guru, one center and go all the way. Dharma definitely will benefit many people, in one way or another.
Without people like Su Ming, James and Albert, i would say sincere and nice people like Liew would not have been to Kechara and be connected with Rinpoche and Setrap. I have always heard beautiful accolation accounts from the new people that i have met during Kechara’s meet ups and activities.They speak highly of the trio or people from the outlet. This also proves that Kechara Care Dept and Kechara Paradise are two very important department into bringing in newbies into Dharma.They are the door way for people to enter into our Kechara mandala.
The two departments are listed here in this two urls:-
1) http://www.kechara.com/shopping/ (Kechara Paradise)
2) http://www.kechara.com/support/ ( Kechara Care)
Through the tremendous hardwork of Rinpoche, students like Su Ming, James and Albert were able to benefit and inspire others just like the way they were benefitted from Rinpoche.
This email from Liew prompts me to think about the people at the frontline of Kechara, at the outer mandala of Kechara, the hard and dedicated people who are working at Kechara Paradise. They stand at one of the doorways that lead to the inner mandala of Kechara, the Kechara House and Tsem Ladrang. Hence a two year nurturing of Liew has resulted in him coming in more and more to volunteer his services and he is very happy now volunteering within Kechara.
From the email you can also discern that he was also nurtured by Kechara Care which plays a pivotal to bringing more and more people deeper into Kechara. Due to all the care, his family now have Dharmapala Setrap to protect them from problems and difficulties and it blesses their family environment also.
C K Liew is so cute and sincere. I rejoice for him for finding a Protecting Guru and Protector Setrap to look after him throughout his whole life and future lives. I also rejoice that his Dharma seed is blossoming and he will be blessed. I pray that his wishes to join Dharma full time will quickly happen starting with volunteering work in whichever department he feels comfortable with. May he also be an active member to contribute towards Kechara World Peace Centre for its swift manifestation. May he have a meaningful life ulfilling this precious human body and bring benefits to others.
What a beautiful and genuine email that speaks from the heart! I am so happy to learn that another person has benefited from the Dharma that Rinpoche shares.
It is truly heart warming to see people have changed, lives been touched and moved, minds shifted and transformed over the years that I have been in Kechara. That is whole point of Kechara – help change lives and aid people in becoming better people
CK Liew is correct – the greatest gift we can give our Guru is keeping our promises, vows and samaya clean. Above all, our own transformation.
Lately, Liew has been coming to Ladrang and helping us in our “Blogging Puja”. He is truly a lovely Dharma brother.
I am very happy for Liew and wish him all the best in his spiritual journey.
Setrap made the connection between you and Kechara. I believe it was no coincidence that you made your way back to Kechara two years later. Setrap has strange ways of bringing people in need into dharma to help them.
I met you at Kechara House during a Setrap puja on Monday nights with your parents. You may be young but you spent time to be with your parents and that is devotion. Your comments are sincere and touched anyone who reads them. May you and your family be protected by Setrap always with the blessings of the lama. May you continue to volunteer at Kechara and seek true happiness.
Dear Mr Liew,
What a nice and sincere message you have posted here.We are all very happy that you have invited protector Setrap into your home.
Rinpoche reminded that we should not only think that his powers are only limited to helping us remove obstacles and giving blessings .
Setrap is an enlightened being and therefore can show us the way to enlightenment which will result in permanent removal of all our sufferings.This comes about through our efforts to effect self transformation, to get rid of selfishness , bad habits and attitudes.
It is by the power of us always working to help others that Setrap will readily come to assist us all the way.
I rejoice you have the merits to take refuge in Rinpoche an connected with Kechara.
Testimonials like this is indeed heartwarming, to know that somehow, somewhere, and someone from Kechara has made that link possible to bring forth a wealth of blessing to another family or individual.
Whatever we have today in Kechara is all due to the kindness of our Guru, H.H. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche. Whether you have been around for a long time or you are just as new as C.K.Liew, I can assure you that you will still feel the same unconditional love and care from our Guru. All the liaisons who all have been working extremely hard round the clock with Rinpoche, are helping Rinpoche to bring forth the same message to the many who are yet come.
Kechara Care department headed by liaison chuah Su Ming is another instrumental department at this point in time in the growth and expansion of kechara. Many more people will receive benefits from the works of our dear lama. Do join in or volunteer to help Kechara Care. Pass that love and care on….

Terima Kasih Rinpoche!
Another Kechara Boleh! story…
It’s this kind of testimony that needs to be out there to encourage all that Buddhists do care and are genuine about it. No more should such stories remain hidden/kept away on how Dharma has benefited individual lives. Most of all, the presence of Kechara Care is a visible sign of that commitment and with its spirit instilled in all members, hence helping to shoulder and assisting KC & its ever tireless team.
It’s another level of growth and maturity for Buddhism in Malaysia after all these decades and generations.
Thank you Sharon.Thank you all for the tremendous work you are doing to assist Rinpoche in transmitting the teaching for the benefit of all beings everywhere.
What a lovely email from Liew.. straight from the heart…
it’s through Tsem Tulku Rinpoche’s kind compassion that we have these practices of Lord Setrap and Dzambala, Tsongkhapa and Tara and in the future – the great Bliss Queen Vajrayogini.
Everything that we have in Kechara is through the kindness, hard work and perseverance of Tsem Rinpoche. It’s through Rinpoche’s perfect teachings and qualities that have inspired so many to join Kechara, like Su Ming, James, Albert – who have directly impacted Liew. And there are so many (and growing) other bright, talented, hardworking and committed people in Kechara now who are impacting others – all from the kindness of our Guru, Tsem Tulku Rinpoche.
We are so fortunate to be near Rinpoche and have benefited from this – whether working with Rinpoche directly or reading his teachings online so we must support Rinpoche’s work so that Rinpoche can benefit many, many more.
Dear Liew Chee Khoi.
This is a very profound email and it touches deeply into my heart as I feel very much like you towards Rinpoche. I am so grateful for Rinpoche’s work and presence with us with its powerful and caring Kechara teams!
Deeply and sincerely with happiness and joy!
