No arms, no legs… FULL OF LIFE!

Jan 22, 2013 | Views: 4,727

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.

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

    Inspiring read of Scott Neeson a most influential person in the movie industry,walked away from Hollywood to start a charity. Left everything he had built,been famous, wealthy and living a life of luxury for the sake of those children living in the slump in Cambodia. He decided to leave Hollywood behind and moved to Cambodia and founded Cambodian Children’s Fund . It was on a trip to Phnom Penh, Scott saw hundreds of children and their families living and working on the Steung Meanchey garbage dump, one of the most toxic environments. It was a moment that changed his life, helping thousands of vulnerable children and their families escape a world of forced labour, child trafficking and desperate poverty into safety and independence. From being a self-serving person, to an extremely giving person truly inspiring. Scott has been living in Phnom Penh where his journey still captivates, inspires and bewilders people from all over the world.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this inspiring post

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Unknown

The Known and unknown are both feared,
Known is being comfortable and stagnant,
The unknown may be growth and opportunities,
One shall never know if one fears the unknown more than the known.
Who says the unknown would be worse than the known?
But then again, the unknown is sometimes worse than the known. In the end nothing is known unless we endeavour,
So go pursue all the way with the unknown,
because all unknown with familiarity becomes the known.
~Tsem Rinpoche

    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
