No arms, no legs… FULL OF LIFE!

Jan 22, 2013 | Views: 4,776

I recently blogged about Qian HongYan, a girl who used a basketball to substitute her absent legs. Many people around the world were inspired by her, and sent in other inspirational stories. Sharon Saw sent in an article about a man named Nick Vujicic.

Nick was born with no limbs, i.e. no arms and no legs. When he was younger he suffered from depression and had suicidal tendencies… until he himself was inspired by another man living with disabilities. He then decided to opt for a better outlook on life and started his own non-profit organization, Life Without Limbs!

I have always admired people who are selfless and although faced with obstacles, pushes themselves forward to live a positive and beneficial life. He could have stayed in his comfort zone, have his parents serve him every day and depend on the generosity of others – but he chose to do more instead. He knew he was to face tremendous challenges but that did not stop him from actualizing his dream, simply because he knew that his life story would bring benefit to many people.

I wish there were more people like Nick out there. The world would be a better place for sure. I am truly humbled by Nick Vujicic. Do take a look at the article prepared by the Blog Team below, and ask yourself, “What’s stopping me from doing more with my life?”

Tsem Rinpoche

 


 

A motivational speaker, writer and founder of a non-profit organization and motivational speaking company, Nick Vujicic stands tall with his ability to influence others even though he has no arms and legs since birth. Diagnosed with tetra-amelia syndrome, a rare disorder characterized by the absence of all four limbs, Nick struggled throughout his younger days having to cope with his condition and bullies at school.

At the age of eight he got into depression and attempted suicide. By the age of ten, he tried drowning himself but pulled back as he could not leave his parents, the ones who gave him hope in life.

The turning point in Nick’s life was when his mother showed him an article about a man dealing with disability. Nick then knew he was not unique in his struggle and eventually realized his accomplishments in life can inspire others. Since that day, Nick decided to go all out to use his disability to inspire others.

At the age of 17, Nick started his own non-profit organization, Life Without Limbs. The organization supports Nick’s activities around the world.

Today, Nick has traveled the world, spoke to 3 million people, using his life story to motivate others. There is no giving up for him, and as they say, the sky is the limit. Nick has written motivational books and through his determination cultivated a special talent, to sing. Entitled Something More, Nick personally sang his life story in hope to inspire others to a live a life with no regrets.

On his personal life, Nick recently married his fiance Kanae Miyahara. Together with his wife, they live an ordinary life like others but with something more, courage, determination and spirituality.

Nick’s condition is not a special one but the way he lived his life is. Although without all four limbs, he is still able to wake up every day with a smile on his face telling others, life is more than just this. Not only did he not lose hope, instead he used his impairments to give hope to others. Nick is truly an inspiration to all.

    It is very nice to see him so happy, even if he has no legs and no arms. I think it is very difficult to live this way, but he found a way to be happy and he has nice people around him who support him and he supports others with the same problem.

    This is very inspirational. Is it possible to get this Video in Hindi so that this can be shown to differently able kids in India

  7. Henry Lamport on Mar 5, 2014 at 3:09 am

    Hi I had only watched the video today and I was in tease because I could not of believed my eyes in what I was seeing and it must of been very hard to do things in Nicks life.

    I just have to say that it must of been hard to stand up in front of a lot of people and tell them his story.

    From Henry

  8. Edward Ooi on Dec 14, 2013 at 1:50 am

    Dear Rinpoche, I have watched one of his videos before in my primary school. I forgotten most of the things he said but I kind of remember that he said a chicken drumstick (his leg) is enough for him and he also shared a few funny experiences. He showed us about never giving up.

  9. Sean Wang on Nov 1, 2013 at 6:38 am

    Nick Vujicic is very inspirational to everyone because he has spends his life of misfortune and disability with a joyous outlook. I like how Nick Vujicic doesn’t really blame anyone for his predicament but he chooses to not give up and live on!

  10. pavara on Aug 10, 2013 at 5:36 pm

    This post tells you to do things even when having difficulties.
    Nick did things as if he had everything he needed and that is so touching.
    He is not called amazing because he lives like he had arms and legs… But because he has courage.
    This is a very inspiring post.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this great post.

  11. abby f on Mar 7, 2013 at 5:35 am

    He has less but he gets more. This is what cross my mind when I know about Nick. We always think that we don’t have enough to do more to get more(results, success and etc), but we are wrong. Nick has so little in his physical form but he can do so much and get so much of results, love and respect.

    To do more and get more is nothing to do with our limitation, it is about how we break through our limitation. We should switch our focus, from focusing on how much limitations we have, to how to break through our limitations. Nick really reminds me of this.

  12. Albert Ratchaga on Mar 7, 2013 at 12:04 am

    Isn’t he amazing? getting a life without hand and leg? When we face bit of difficulties, we want to give up, we take it like end of the world. But look at Nick, look at his condition, he is much much more unlucky than anyone of us here, but he never give up his life, in fact, his mind is so fabulous where none of this unfortunate can bring him down, in fact, his life is even more colourful than us.

    I like what he say here, “God has a plan in my life, to give hope to other people through my story.”

    Do you know what does this mean? it shows you how tough and positive he is, whatever happened to him, it became one of his tool to benefit others, to inspire others.

  13. beatrix ooi on Mar 6, 2013 at 11:50 pm

    The first time when I heard about Nick was from a school assembly. They played videos and slideshows about him, taught us not to give up so easily. I really cannot imagine life with no limbs. Although he didn’t have hands and legs like most of us do, he chose to be happy and continued living a hapy life. He is so inspiring, I will never forget the kind of spirit he has in his mind. May he always be happy.
    Thank You for sharing Rinpoche.
    Love, beatrix.

  14. Felix Kong on Mar 6, 2013 at 7:46 pm

    谢谢任波切分享Nick的故事。他的故事很感人,他的人生道路非常艰苦,充满障碍,过着非一般人的童年,没有四肢的他并没放弃自己反而更加乐观,开心,努力的生活。现在他已经像普通人一样娶老婆了。

    很肯定的从他身上可以得到很多启示。接受自己的缺陷,改变想法,珍惜现在所拥有的,那样子会快乐很多。

  15. Milly on Feb 26, 2013 at 7:25 pm

    The way Nick is living his life puts many of us who are able-bodied to shame. Despite his difficult childhood and attempted suicides, Nick is now an inspiration to everyone. Nick not only motivates the disabled but everyone. I am full of admiration of Nick’s work and achievements. And his wife Kanae Miyahara is a woman of substance who does not find Nick disabilities a hindrance to their relationship.

  16. Pastor Chia on Feb 26, 2013 at 12:59 am

    I was torn by Nick story when i first read about his story. Nick story tell us about a man dealing with disability. Nick then knew he was not unique in his struggle and eventually realized his accomplishments in life can inspire others. Since that day, Nick decided to go all out to use his disability to inspire others.

    I always believe everyone have different ability to inspiring others. As long we are confident who we are and have correct attitude. Eventually we can help each other. In-completion of our body is not the big obstacle to stop us to achieve what we want to do in our life. The most of important is having a kind and caring heart, will make our life more useful and meaningful.

    “The best way to develop yourself is when you are challenged with difficulties. Not when everything is easy at your fingertips”- Tsem
    Rinpoche

    Nick is a great example of Rinpoche’s quote. It is not easy to live without limbs and to face this disability. Nick story is truly inspiring. Even though he does not have limbs yet he is full of energy, lived a positive life and full of confidence. He challenged himself and turned his disabilities to inspire and touched the lives of many. It was not an easy task but he persevered and he is now stronger than most able bodied people. It is when we go though the difficulties that we realize our potential.

    Thank you, Rinpoche, for sharing.

  18. Frederick Law on Feb 11, 2013 at 11:51 pm

    3 year back i got to know about Nick Vujicic in a company meeting, where they show a video of nick, and i was a surprise seeing a man naturally born without limbs, living a life full of obstacles, an obstacles which is not form outside forces, but rather an obstacles of the physical self and emotional self.

    Nick live through that life of despair because of his disability, but that imperfection makes him more stronger emotionally and spiritually stronger to live his life, and uses the imperfection he have to inspire and motivate others, and not giving up and uses what we have to motivate and help others.

    Thank you for sharing this wonderful story of Nick Vujicic.

  19. tenzin llhamo on Feb 7, 2013 at 12:55 pm

    I watched this video quite some time back http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciYk-UwqFKA
    Motivating the younger generation and letting them know there is much more to look forward to in life.
    In his music video ‘something more’ has a powerful message. I may have a bad day or time but there are many out there who are suffering much more and it makes me think that, its not that bad after all. Be grateful and thankful for all I have and not complain, disappointed nor give up. For him to be able to accept and look forward to life is something that all of us should be inspired with and be better.

  20. Jace Chong on Jan 31, 2013 at 11:49 pm

    Nick’s determination to help others through his body is very strong,even stronger than people who are normal and have all 4 limbs. This is what Rinpoche always says that when we focus out, our problem become small and we have more strength because we are helping others.

    I believe for Nick to go around the world and give talk, it’s not easy for him. But still you can see after every talk, he still stay back and gives hugs to the audience one by one. I really admire him, even with such inconvenience, he gives warm and hope to as many people as he can.

    May Nick have a fantastic and happy life and continue to light up the hope of life for others. Thank you Nick!!

  21. Sean Wang on Jan 31, 2013 at 10:38 pm

    The first time the term Nick Vujicic came into my life was when I was around 12 years old. My school had an assembly talking about him and his feats! Despite not having a helping hand, he still lived up and realised that the sky is not the limit. He lived! All people should learn from him and live life to the fullest. People should not be despairing for what they lack, they should be happy for what they have. I am sick and tired of people crying and pouting over not buying the new iphone. They should be happy with the iphone they have now… even if they are still using a Nokia.

  22. Venix on Jan 31, 2013 at 8:21 pm

    Dear Rinpoche,
    Thanks for sharing. I had read his book Life Without Limits..I am ery touched and inspired with his stories..it has taught me many things. He is my role model.

    Regards,
    Venix

  23. Jean Mei on Jan 30, 2013 at 11:34 pm

    This seems like a clip from “Pay it Forward”. Nick Vujicic was inspired by another disabled man, and he in turn was inspired to inspire others. One good action leads to another – the disabled man who inspired Nick must be collecting a lot of merits.

    Nick shows us how even if we hit rock bottom, there is a way out if we choose it. He proves to us that if we really wanted to do something, we can – and the only thing that’s in the way of us and success is the bulls— we tell ourselves!

    I’m inspired by Nick because he uses his life; his body, his spirit and his speech to inspire others. He is living his entire life for others. It reminds us about how there are many different types of selfless people out there, and why should we not be the next person in the “Pay it Forward” phenomena? 🙂

  24. Darren Kechara Paradise on Jan 29, 2013 at 4:55 pm

    I have watch his video and story before, Nick is really amazing and his ability to does things seems impossible for his condition. His works also inspired many around the world.

  25. Eric Lee KHJB on Jan 29, 2013 at 4:20 pm

    在还没接触仁波切以前,我是一个蛮会埋怨的人,整天怪这怪那,从来都不知道自己有多么的幸福,比起现在这位仁兄,我就幸福的多了。当我看完这一篇报道了以后,我自觉惭愧,我有手有脚,四肢健全的人都时常在找借口,现在好了,可以让我自己能全力以赴的去做每一件事情,再也没有理由与借口在怨天尤人,谢谢仁波切与我分享那么美好的一段故事。

  26. Joy on Jan 27, 2013 at 8:12 pm

    Because Nick knew nothing more hence he had to “trust” a compassionate being – Jesus Christ… I wondered if he knew Buddha Dharma, what answers he would have gotten. I am sure his mind would probably blow and his “whys” would probably be answered earlier and in a more logical way. I am not saying Christianity is not a beautiful religion, just wondering how he would have turned out if he knew Dharma?

    However, his faith and trust in “God” pushed him and motivated him to become better and not to focus on his pain and tragic situation, is actually the real beauty and essence of the teachings. I don’t think “God” ever answered him but I think through his own deep faith, he used the object of a “God” to help him pull through and find courage and strength which is main important thing.

    It is really another example of life and what we choose to make out of it is really up to us. Nick is someone that chose to live and inspire many through his own experience of being arm and legless… he could have chosen to take his life instead… but he chose to rise above it and this shows any problems we face in life is not the end of the world and that we definitely can rise above it… if we choose to do so.

  27. Andrew Boon on Jan 27, 2013 at 8:10 pm

    “If you don’t get a miracle… Be one!” WOW! This one phrase at the end of the music video says it all… We be the inspiration for others and not wait in “poor me” mode and wait for others to help… we are more than capable in helping ourselves… Nick Vujicic is the perfect example of that. He rose above all “odds”, the so called odds or barriers we put upon ourselves.

    His faith in GOD is commendable… to have such devotion and trust in order that he may bring himself up, be an inspiration and not blame anyone for “disability”. I think most of us are more disabled than Nick WITH all our limbs…

    Truly an inspiring and a lesson in believing in oneself!

    • sarahyap on Feb 4, 2013 at 6:32 pm

      Andrew, I really like what you said! And yes, the quote “If you don’t get a miracle.. Be one!” is truly inspiring.

      I like how although he has his down time when he was younger… when he have so much questions about why he was born such a way, which is what all people born with disabilities would ask and wonder why … but he never let that thought control his future and made great effort to nurture himself to be what he is today.

      I also think the people around him is truly amazing to give him so much hope and not ‘give up’ on him. I know many people that have ‘disabled’ children and they tend to overlook the needs of their children that by the time they noticed how wrong they were at ignoring these children, it was already too late to rectify the problem.

      • Andrew Boon on Feb 24, 2013 at 8:49 pm

        We all have our “questions” when we were younger. We are all different and we tend to compare ourselves to others… the disparities, the differences, the similarities even and above all, why we are actually here… The trick I guess Nick is telling us is to look beyond that… we all have our differences and weaknesses, we need to celebrate our strengths and move on… that I feel is such a key empowering note!

  28. David Lai on Jan 27, 2013 at 2:32 pm

    What an inspiration! I think it is amazing that this man, who has no limbs was able to overcome his tremendous handicap. Just watching him struggle to get onto the couch was enough proof of the struggles he goes through on a daily basis. Yes, through adversity he was able to accept everything and work to help others instead. I am not impressed with his belief in God but I am impressed that his belief in God led him to have this level of acceptance. With it, he use it to help others and that’s how he interpret his disability.

    It’s amazing that someone like that is able to stay positive through adversity and was able to draw strength from his acceptance and able to use his adversity to benefit so many. There’s no way you are not convinced and moved by this guy because he has no limbs and just the struggle of moving about is a living proof of him overcoming his struggles along with the smile and effervescent smile on his face. This is just such an amazing person that he gives hope to all of us who think our problems are big. Most of our problems are nothing compared to what he goes through on a daily basis. He’s just an inspiration through and through.

  29. Lucas Roth on Jan 27, 2013 at 12:12 pm

    wow, i heard of this guy before and he is AMAZING. he can do so many things and he is still happy and cheerful, so full of life.he is a true inspiration. have a long and happy life Nick.

  30. Martin on Jan 26, 2013 at 4:56 pm

    What a profound tale and Nick’s testimony is something we have learned in the Dharma and Nick has applied it to his life better than most people. In that sense, Nick’s “disability” is in fact an advantage as he had to look inwards to find his true self, not his physical self and he found happiness by giving to others. It is very true what Nick said that there is no point being whole on the outside when you are broken on the inside. The proof that is that there are so many people who are physically complete and in fact beautiful than most or stronger and faster than most and yet they too are broken inside. So it is not the packaging that we come with but the substance that becomes us. In the end, the packaging all end up the same way, in decay and rot.

    Why someone is born whole and others aren’t, why is someone born attractive while others are born deformed is all due to karma and Nick’s story is proof that we can alter the course of our own lives by our own realization of what is truly important and what is superficial, by our decisions and by the actions we take. We all have “deformities” mostly inside and even some outside and we spend so much time fixing the outside but that fail to attend to that which is crucial. In Nick’s case, because he came to terms with himself and chose to use his life to benefit others, he became whole. Frankly, after you hear him speak you cannot help but admire and respect him and suddenly you don’t see his handicap but instead you see his greatness through his kindness and his faith. This is something for all of us to nate note of and learn.

  31. Paris on Jan 26, 2013 at 4:49 pm

    What you notice most when you watch Nick is not the fact that he doesn’t have any limbs – you notice most of all his energy, his big capacity to laugh, his confidence and positivity. So while most of us worry what people think of us, perhaps we’d be better off investing that time into developing the very qualities that draw us into people like Nick – that same confidence, positivity and hope that he brings to the people around him, no matter his physical disabilities.

    Isn’t it strange how the opposite also rings true- that someone could have all their facilities in tact and have everything outwardly “perfect” – be extremely good looking, fit, healthy, wealthy etc but their rotten personalities make them completely unattractive and makes people not want to be near them in any way. Surely we have all known people like this – people whose attractiveness wears off very fast once they start talking, acting and showing just how “ugly” their personalities really are.

    Which just goes to show really, that while there are billions of dollars going into an industry to “perfect” our physical appearances, to make us desirable (to whom??), the very qualities that actually attract people to us are completely free.

  32. sarahyap on Jan 26, 2013 at 4:43 pm

    It’s not about the circumstances that we’re born in that determines who we are, but how we make use of the circumstances to be the best we can.

    Nick’s story is truly inspiring, and I like his upright honesty and view of life, to bring meaning and inspire others out there… because he realizes that even people that are ‘perfect’ physically, is not truly happy in the inside.

    Happiness comes from within, Nick showed us that it is true.

  33. Wan Wai Meng on Jan 25, 2013 at 7:53 pm

    Thank you rinpoche this is an amazing story. And if a person who was born like Nick can feel hope, then everyone around the world should and can feel hope in their lives. Although we may not always want to compare to someone who seemingly in a worst state than we are but nothing wakes us up than when we do a real and honest comparison. Nick had disadvantages that most of us do not have yet he is able to inspire others.

  34. Jutika Lam on Jan 25, 2013 at 12:49 am

    Dear Rinpoche,

    Here are my thoughts on the article.

    Wow This story of Nick Vujicic is very inspiring, i is just amazing how he is not let down by his disablement and instead he is inspiring
    people all around the the world.

    It is amazing how he may not have hands and legs but yet he can still manage to swim, surf, skateboard and many other kinds of sports.

    It just made me want to cry seeing his story being told on the video above.

    This shows as an example that we should not say that we can’ do this or can’t do that because a man with no legs can even swim.

    Thank You Rinpoche for sharing the very inspiring story!

    Love
    Jutika

  35. Sharon Saw on Jan 24, 2013 at 2:11 am

    “Where do we go when hope runs out, when we’re empty, when there’s nothing left” is the beginning of Nick’s song. How many of us think like that when we have ALL OUR LIMBS… when we look at Nick and see him shining with positive attitude, it is truly shameful when we complain over small things in our lives. Nick is truly inspirational and motivational. He is a sparkling personality regardless of his physical condition. Disability is all in the mind – those of us who are physically capable but don’t do anything with our lives might as well be physically disabled (and considering how capable Nick is, physically disabled isn’t so disabling after all!). i salute Nick for his faith and his strength.

  36. Sheryl KH (JB) on Jan 23, 2013 at 12:46 am

    Perhaps even the word ‘amazing’ is not sufficient to describe Nick for the courage that he has and the pain that he has to endure since his birth.

    Hard to imagine one has to live without limbs, all our daily works from big to small we need to either rely on other people or spend a lot more time and efforts to accomplish them. Something that takes only a minute for us may require 1 hour for a physically disabled to get done. And the painful part is that they need to face this every single minute of their lives.

    When we put ourselves next to them, we see how uncontended and fortunate we are.

    People like Nick are inspirational for us for the inner strength that they have within themselves. They constantly remind us to feel contended about what we have, and teach ourselves not to look at what we dont have.

  37. jennifer on Jan 22, 2013 at 1:42 pm

    I watched the interview with Nick Vujicic and it brought tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat.

    Nick has turned his disability to an asset , through his trust and faith in God. How many many lives he had touched – with his determination, tenacity, faith and most of all his love for life and in his belief. What a strong spirit he has and what a huge huge heart of love and inspiration he carries with him.

    I found that the underlying message in this beautiful story is also a recognition of Karma and reincarnation. That Nick is born without limbs is perhaps based on the karmic connection of his previous lives and also the link to his parents. It was his mother who showed him the article of another disabled person that transformed Nick’s life.

    It’s so amazing that Nick does everything a ‘normal’ person can do physically but he does even more – he inspires everyone that he comes across. What a great message he is relaying to the world.

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this wonderful story with us, and thank you Sharon.

    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.

    In Tibetan Buddhism, water offerings, particularly the seven or eight bowls offering, are a common practice used to express gratitude, cultivate merit, and purify the mind. The seven bowls represent essential aspects of offerings and can be offered daily, along with other items like flowers, incense, and lamps. Water offerings are probably the most common offering made in Tibetan Buddhism. Offering any item of value to the three jewels is the antidote to greed and attachment and helps to cultivate generosity. It is a powerful practice that can help us develop positive qualities such as generosity, devotion, and selflessness. By making water offering, we are creating good karma for ourselves and all sentient beings in the future. Great explanations and teachings all about water offerings.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    H.H. Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche (1878–1941), also known as Dechen Nyingpo Jampa Tenzin Trinlay Gyatso, was one of the great lamas of the twentieth century. was a highly influential teacher in Tibet and a prominent lama in the 20th century. He was the root guru of the present Dalai Lama’s tutors and many other Tibetan lamas who brought the Dharma to the West. His teachings, particularly his book “Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand,” are significant in the Gelugpa tradition until this days.He was the root guru of the present Dalai Lama’s tutors, Kyabje Ling Rinpoche and Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche, and a teacher to many other Gelug lamas who fled Tibet. He had brought the Dharma to the West after 1959. His teachings covered various aspects of the Tibetan Buddhist path, including the seven-point mind training and the stages of the path to enlightenment. Rinpoche’s teachings are so famous that thousands of people would come from far and wide to attend. He was an extraordinary master for the Heruka Body Mandala and the Vajrayogini practice. Wow ……one of the many famous stories been told of how Heruka actually appeared to Pabongka when he visited Cimburi in Tibet and how Heruka image spoke to him. Interesting biography of a great master of all times.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    The practice of Sangha in Buddhism involves building and cultivating a supportive community of practitioners who engage in shared spiritual practice, often focusing on mindfulness and concentration. This community provides mutual support, guidance, and encouragement on the path of self-discovery. The Sangha is not just a gathering of people; it’s a collective energy of mindfulness and compassion that benefits all members. It provides a supportive environment for individuals on their spiritual journey, offering guidance, encouragement, and a sense of belonging. Sharing experiences and insights within the Sangha can accelerate the learning process.
    Thank you Thich Nhat Hanh for sharing and explaining all about the insight of sangha. Great sharing .

    Wat Rong Khun better known as the White Temple, is a Buddhist temple in Chiang Rai province, Thailand. The gold symbolizes how people focus on worldly desires and money. The white building represents the idea to make merit and to focus on the mind. It is owned by a succesful Thai businessman who opened it to visitors in 1997. Awesome….This temple stands out through the white colour and use of pieces of glass that sparkle in the sun. The white colour signifies the purity of Buddha while the glass symbolizes Buddha’s wisdom. Located 3 hour drive from Chiang Mai built to honour and pay tribute to sacred Buddhist figures. Over time, temples grew in prominence and is one of the famous temples to visit in Thailand. I have visited years back its simple stunning temple which truly love the design and architecture .
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Sak Yant, a traditional Thai tattooing practice, involves sacred geometrical and animal designs. Its often accompanied by Pali phrases, and is believed to offer power, protection, charisma, and other benefits to the wearer. Sak Yant tattoos are deeply rooted in Buddhist and spiritual beliefs, with each design and symbol carrying specific meanings and purported powers. Many designs are believed to provide protection against evil spirits, misfortune, and danger. Sak Yant tattoos are traditionally applied by monks or masters using a needle and ink, and the process is often accompanied by chants and blessings. I personally have not seen one yet . Sound interesting.

    Jojo Struys is a travel and wellness personality, accredited yoga instructor, speaker and author. She visited Bangsar of Kechara outlet for a feature with Star Property. With her visit hopefully more people will get to know more of our Kechara . She had made a video with and Pastor David Lai all about Buddhist Arts. She openly admitted interested in Buddhist art . Buddhist art pieces have given her home a contemporary edge. Art was important to Buddhist religious life. It was not only part of ritual and worship but also served to transmit religious ideas, and artistic styles between cultures. Do agree with her statement ,…..if you want to change your life, change the way you think, because everything begins with you.”

    n their theoretical model, rudeness has this impact on our ability to think because it engenders negative sadness, anger. Researchers have found that common negative behaviours can spread easily and have significant consequences. The best way to avoid rude people is to meet their acts of rudeness with kindness. Exposure to neurotoxins in society is not new. Children today are raised in an environment that is much different from those days. Nowadays they are exposed to behaviours, profane language, hostilities and stress from which we adults, raised a generation ago. Studies have shown that children exposed to serious psychological trauma during childhood are at risk of suffering increased psychiatric disorders. Interesting read.
    Thank you Rinpoche.

    Revisit this blog again . Reading comments in this blog Rich people have substantial assets and income, providing a sense of security and freedom from financial worries. Owning high-end cars, designer clothing and everything they want with their money. Rich people often have more time for leisure, hobbies, and travel, allowing them to pursue interests and experiences. They may live in large, luxurious homes and have or apartments, often in desirable locations and having personalized services. The fundamental difference in mindset between the rich and the poor is, the rich have understood a very simple principle money makes money. Rich people see money as an opportunity, while poor people see it as something to be earned. Poor people work hard for their money. It is the heart that makes a man rich. He is rich according to what he is, not according to what he has. Not he who has much is rich, but he who gives much. The primary difference between rich people and poor people is how they handle their wealth. My thought been rich in this world it is not what we take up, but what we give up, that makes us rich.
    Thank you for sharing Rinpoche.

    Found this old post …disturbing. Having a name especially a Bar linked to Buddha to be disrespectful towards Buddhism. After much controversy the owner had it removed. The Buddha Bar located in Sabah by a young owner which opened without much thought had many people complaining. Later was forced to have its controversial name changed to ‘Peacock Garden’ and had apologised for the controversial name. As a devout Buddhist, the name ‘Buddha Bar’ which serves alcohol, is disrespectful to the revered Buddha.

    Siberia, considered the heartland of shamanism inhabited by many different ethnic groups, and many of its peoples observe shamanistic. Many of the indigenous communities reclaiming their traditional spiritual and healing practices . Interesting. Siberian shamanism is often called Tengerism, involves various rituals, including drumming, chanting, trance states, and offerings to nature spirits and ancestors. This religious practice has deep roots in Siberia and Central Asia in recent years with roots in the Turkic and Mongolic cultures. Many who have been live in a remote part of Russia, have preserved their shamanic traditions due to their isolation. Many customs of Tengrism are still been practiced where they emphasizes a deep respect for nature and its various spirits, including those of the earth, water, and mountains. They do believe in the continued existence of souls and the importance of honouring their ancestors.
    Thank you Rinpoche sharing this ancient religion.

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.
    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
