(Oleh Tsem Rinpoche dan Beatrix Ooi)

Dupa memainkan peran penting dalam Buddhisme sejak lama. Tradisi Theravada, Mahayana, Vajrayana Zen, Buddhisme Tibet dan lainnya menganggap dupa sebagai dasar substansi persembahan yang umum bagi para Buddha dan mahluk tercerahkan.

Menurut sejarah Buddhisme, dupa digunakan untuk pertama kalinya pada jaman Buddha Shakyamuni, ketika seorang wanita bernama Magadha Sangmo mempersembahkan dupa dan berdoa untuk memohon sang Buddha mengunjungi desa tempat tinggalnya. Magadha Sangmo adalah putri dari penyandang dana utama sang Buddha, Suddatta. Seperti sang ayah, ia memiliki keyakinan yang kuat terhadap Buddha Shakyamuni dan merupakan pengabdi yang setia.

Setelah menikah dan pindah ke desa dimana Buddhisme belum dipraktikkan, ia berharap untuk bertemu dengan gurunya, sang Buddha, lagi. Jadi pada suatu hari, ia naik ke atap rumah mertuanya, mempersembahkan dupa dan dengan tulus berdoa kepada sang Buddha untuk mengunjunginya. Setelah mendengarkan doa tersebut, Buddha Shakyamuni, bersama dengan rombongannya, turun dari langit untuk memenuhi permohonan Magadha Sangmo. Konon, setelah bertemu dengan sang Buddha dan mendengarkan ajarannya, seluruh desa menjadi penganut Buddhisme. Dengan cara ini, permohonan tulus dari Magadha Sangmo kepada sang Buddha juga memberikan manfaat kepada warga setempat dan generasi selanjutnya.

Magadha Sangmo melafalkan bait berikut ketika berdoa kepada sang Buddha:

MA LU SEM CHEN KUN GYI GON GYUR CHING
DU TE PUNG CHAY MI ZAY JOM DZAY LHA
NGO NAM MA LU YANG DA KYEN GYUR PAY
CHOM DEN KOR CHAY NAY DIR SHEG SU SOL

Pelindung semua mahluk tanpa kecuali,
Penakhluk ilahi dari berbagai kekuatan negatif,
Dewa, yang maha mengetahui,
Bhagawan dan rombongan, kumohon datanglah kemari.

Praktik sangsol atau persembahan dupa kepada Dorje Shugden memainkan peran penting karena Magadha Sangmo adalah salah satu kehidupan terdahulu Dorje Shugden.

 

Persembahan Dupa Dalam Tradisi Tibet

Dalam Buddhisme Tibet, seperti halnya tradisi Buddhisme lainnya, dupa digunakan sebagai persembahan kepada Tiga Permata (Buddha, Dharma, dan Sangha) selama berabad-abad. Dalam ritual, dupa digunakan untuk memurnikan substansi persembahan seperti air, makanan dan cahaya.

Dalam ilmu pengobatan tradisional Tibet, dupa digunakan sebagai substansi obat untuk menyembuhkan penyakit tertentu. Karena kualitas menyembuhkan dari bahan-bahannya, dupa dari Tibet digunakan untuk membantu meringankan dan menenangkan pikiran yang terganggu karena depresi, gelisah, khawatir dan stress. Dokter ilmu pengobatan Tibet mendapatkan pengetahuan mereka dari teks medis Tibet yang berasal dari Empat Tantra, dikenal sebagai Gyudzhi dalam bahasa Tibet. Ini adalah Tantra Akar, Tantra Pencerahan, Tantra Instruksi dan Tantra Akhir.

Menurut teori medis dari Tibet, semua hal di alam semesta terbuat dari lima elemen: Sa (tanah), Me (api), Chu (air), Lung (angin) dan Namkha (ruang). Akan tetapi, hanya empat elemen pertama yang memainkan peran dalam klasifikasi penyakit medis. Dupa juga dapat digunakan dalam konteks non-relijius yaitu untuk penyembuhan.

Sangsol: Ritual Persembahan Dupa

Persembahan dupa mengingatkan kita untuk memegang sumpah dengan tulus dan menciptakan sebab bagi kita untuk melakukannya. Sumpah ini termasuk sumpah Perlindungan, Pratimoksha, Bodhisattva dan Tantra. Banyak biksu luhur yang konon tubuhnya mengeluarkan aroma harum karena mereka memegang sumpah mereka dengan baik dan telah mencapai kesempurnaan moralitas. Lama Tsongkhapa yang luhur, pendiri aliran Gelug dalam Buddhisme Tibet dikenal sebagai salah seorang yang memiliki kualitas ini.

Dalam ajaran Buddhisme, moralitas dianggap sebagai salah satu dari Enam Kesempurnaan bagi praktisi Bodhisattva. Karenanya, moralitas adalah salah satu persyaratan untuk mencapai Pencerahan Penuh. Jadi, ketika kita memberikan persembahan dupa kepada sang Buddha, kita mendapatkan pahala untuk menjadi seperti mereka dan memegang sumpah kita dengan sempurna. Pencapaian yang tinggi tergantung pada dipegangnya tiga macam sumpah (Pratimoksha, Bodhisattva dan tantra) yang kita terima dari guru yang berkualifikasi.

Dengan memegang sumpah ini, kita mengarahkan kebiasaan kita menuju sebuah realita yang lebih tinggi. Realita ini terdiri dari tindakan yang tidak mementingkan diri sendiri berdasarkan pandangan yang benar, dan bukannya proyeksi egois yang mendorong pada terciptanya karma dan mengalami akibat dari karma tersebut. Karma dan buahnya mengikat seseorang pada samsara tanpa akhir. Proyeksi yang salah adalah cara kita untuk melihat dunia secara terdistorsi dan akibatnya, tindakan kita juga terdistorsi dan mencelakakan diri dan orang lain. Distorsi dalam hal ini adalah pandangan yang berfokus pada diri sendiri dan menganggap hal tersebut sebagai fenomena yang permanen.

Semua cara pandang yang melihat ‘saya’ sebagai lebih penting dari mahluk lain adalah terdistorsi karena dalam istilah awam, hal ini membawa pada egoisme yang lebih dalam. Dalam tingkatan manapun di masyarakat, egoisme tidaklah bermanfaat. Egoisme adalah mendapatkan hasil dengan ‘tidak menghiraukan’ kebutuhan mahluk lain. Karenanya, mempersembahkan dupa membantu mengumpulkan pahala yang didasarkan pada aspirasi Bodhisattva dan membantu kita menyadari pandangan yang lebih tinggi dan melihat kesalahan dari melayani diri sendiri dan bukannya memenuhi kebutuhan semua mahluk hidup. Melayani diri adalah sebab dari semua celaka dan penderitaan, dan melayani mahluk lain adalah sebab dari semua kebahagiaan di samsara dan Nirvana. Karenanya, memegang samaya, kata-kata kehormatan, janji dan sumpah membawa kita pada pandangan yang lebih tinggi, tindakan yang lebih baik dan memudahkan kita dalam merubah kebiasaan buruk menjadi kebiasaan baik dan pada akhirnya kita akan menciptakan lebih sedikit sebab yang mencelakakan. Lebih sedikit tindakan yang mencelakakan, lebih sedikit juga sebab bagi kita dan orang-orang di sekitar kita untuk menderita. Bila kita tidak berubah, bagaimana kita bisa dengan tulus melayani mahluk lain. Karenanya, mempersembahkan dupa dengan kualitas terbaik dengan motivasi tertinggi mungkin terlihat seperti laku spiritual yang sederhana, tetapi hal ini membawa kita pada pandangan yang lebih tinggi, membantu melaksanakan praktik kita dengan integritas dan konsistensi, menciptakan pahala dan kemampuan untuk memegang sumpah yang membawa pada pencapaian dan cara pandang yang lebih tinggi dalam pikiran kita. Mempersembahkan dupa harus dilakukan setiap hari dan secara konsisten dengan keyakinan penuh pada Dharma tertinggi yang membebaskan pikiran kita dari semua penderitaan seperti sang Buddha yang telah berhasil melintasi samsara. Yang tidak akan kembali ke samsara dalam bentuk mahluk menderita yang membawa penderitaan lebih jauh bagi mahluk lain. Persembahan dupa adalah praktik bermakna yang tidak boleh dianggap remeh.

Teks sangsol yang paling awal berasal dari abad ke 8 pada saat biara pertama di Tibet yaitu Biara Samye didirikan. Biara ini dibangun dengan dukungan Raja Trisong Detsen, Guru Tantra yang luhur, Guru Rinpoche, dan Guru Sutra yang luhur, Santarakshita. Teks aslinya disembunyikan dan baru ditemukan berabad-abad kemudian oleh para pengabdi. Perlu diingat bahwa mempersembahkan sangsol atau dupa adalah mirip. Sang adalah dupa dalam bentuk bubuk atau telah ditumbuk dalam jumlah besar. Dupa sendiri berbentuk batangan.

Dalam aliran Gelugpa, ada beberapa teks sangsol yang ditulis oleh para guru cendikiawan Buddhisme Tibet seperti Dalai Lama ke 5, Lama Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso, Lama Yeshe Wangpo dan Yang Suci Pancen Lama ke 4, Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsen. Versi singkat dari persembahan sangsol kepada Dorje Shugden (seperti yang tercantum di bawah ini) ditulis oleh seorang guru cendikiawan, Yang Mulia Serkong Dorje Chang.

 

Kapan Sebaiknya Melakukan Sangsol?

Sangsol biasanya dilakukan di ruang terbuka pada saat perayaan keagamaan dan saat-saat spesial seperti pernikahan, ulang tahun, Losar (Tahun Baru Tibet), pada saat puja dan lainnya. Menurut tradisi Tibet, dupa biasanya dibakar dalam sebuah sangpur, sebuah wadah berbentuk guci untuk membakar dupa. Sangpur biasanya dibangun di tempat yang tinggi, contohnya di pegunungan dan di atas bukit. Sangpur juga biasanya dibangun di daerah dimana dewa setempat dan para naga berdiam. Hal ini dilakukan agar ketika sangsol dilakukan, lingkungan sekitar termasuk para mahluk yang tinggal di sana turut terberkati oleh energi ilahi.

Secara tradisi, sangsol dilakukan untuk memurnikan karma yang dikumpulkan karena melanggar samaya. Walau pada umumnya samaya merujuk pada hubungan dengan pembimbing spiritual kita, dalam hal ini samaya juga bisa berarti hubungan dengan saudara, saudari dan rekan Dharma. Karenanya, menjaga hubungan yang harmonis dengan para individu ini sangatlah dianjurkan.

Saat lain dimana sangsol dilakukan adalah untuk memurnikan lingkungan dalam rumah. Sebelum acara penting dimulai, Yang Mulia Tsem Rinpoche menginstruksikan agar murid-muridnya melakukan sang di ruangan atau di rumah. Tujuannya adalah untuk menghilangkan kesulitan dari hadirin yang akan berpartisipasi dalam acara, contohnya, agar mereka yang ingin bertemu untuk meminta nasihat atau ajaran berpikiran jernih. Melakukan sang setiap hari di rumah, kantor, atau tempat tertentu untuk menghilangkan energi negatif dan meningkatkan energi positif bagi mereka yang tinggal atau bekerja di sana. Bila ada energi atau entitas negatif di lingkungan kita, maka persembahan dupa kepada para Buddha dan menyebarkan asap dupa di seluruh ruang rumah atau kantor dapat membantu menenangkan mereka. Ini adalah cara yang ampuh untuk menyegarkan kembali energi yang hilang atau terpolusi di rumah atau di kantor kita. Hal ini bisa dilakukan bahkan oleh mereka yang tidak relijius. 

Selain memurnikan karma dan kesulitan seseorang, sangsol juga dilakukan pada lokasi konstruksi. Ketika sangsol dilakukan, mahluk bijaksana diundang ke lokasi tertentu untuk datang dan membantu kita. Dalam contoh Dorje Shugden, ketika energi ilahi beliau diundang, lingkungan dan mahluk yang tinggal di sana seperti dewa setempat dan naga yang mudah tersinggung ketika konstruksi berlangsung di daerah mereka juga akan terberkati. Ritual sangsol akan memberkati dan mendamaikan mereka dan karenanya, kesulitan yang mungkin timbul dan kecelakaan yang bisa terjadi karena para mahluk ini bisa dicegah.

 

Bagaimana Cara Memulai?

Sebelum melakukan sangsol, ada beberapa poin penting yang harus diperhatikan:

  1. Kualitas dupa atau sang yang dipersembahkan harus yang terbaik sesuai dengan kemampuan kita. Dan yang paling penting, substansinya harus bersih dan murni.
  2. Dupa tidak boleh diinjak oleh hewan atau manusia pada proses persiapannya.
  3. Menurut kebudayaan dan tradisi Tibet, dupa biasanya terbuat dari jintan saru, konifer, daun dan kayu harum, pakis, cendana merah atau putih, agar, pinus, pohon cedar, minyak mur, amber, kemenyan, teratai salju, kembang sepatu, safron, orpine merah, borneol, rhododendron dan banyak substansi lainnya. Kebanyakan, ramuan obat-obatan dicampur dengan mentega, tsampa (tepung barli yang telah dipanggang) dan gula dibakar bersamaan. Mereka yang tinggal di perkotaan dan kesulitan mendapatkan bahan-bahan alami seperti ini bisa mempersembahkan campuran sederhana jintan saru dan dupa pelindung. (Klik di sini untuk mengetahui lebih lanjut mengenai berbagai jenis dupa.)
  4. Bahan-bahan ini harus dalam kondisi murni, bebas dari polutan seperti alkohol, bawang bombay dan bawang putih.

Persembahan Sang di Kechara Forest Retreat

Adalah praktik yang umum untuk selalu menetapkan motivasi yang baik sebelum berdoa atau melakukan pekerjaan berpahala. Hal yang sama harus diterapkan dalam ritual sangsol. Bagi mereka yang belum mengenal konsep menetapkan motivasi yang baik, hal ini dilakukan untuk menetapkan maksud yang tulus untuk memberi manfaat bagi semua makhluk dengan mendedikasikan pahala yang dikumpulkan dari melakukan tindakan baik, dalam hal ini mempersembahkan dupa, bagi kesejahteraan mereka.

Setelah menetapkan motivasi yang benar, kita melafalkan bait-bait perlindungan sementara merenungkan Empat Hal Tak Terhingga. Praktisi yang telah menerima inisiasi Tantra dapat memvisualisasikan diri mereka sebagai yidam atau dewa meditasi masing-masing. Kemudian kita lanjutkan dengan doa sangsol, yang dimulai dengan melafalkan “OM AH HUM” tiga kali.

Bila kita memiliki permohonan tertentu kepada Dorje Shugden, permohonan ini bisa diucapkan pada saat pelafalan doa sangsol. Menjelang akhir doa sangsol, kita memohon para dewa setempat untuk kembali ke kediaman masing-masing. Kemudian kita menyelesaikan ritual sangsol dengan melafalkan bait-bait dedikasi.

Catatan: Walaupun ditulis dalam teks doa bahwa kita memurnikan para dewa ketika kita mempersembahkan dupa, makna sebenarnya adalah kita memurnikan karma negatif dan kesulitan kita melalui persembahan ini. Kalian bisa mempersembahkan sangsol setiap hari atau sesering mungkin sesuai keinginan anda. Tidak ada celaka atau pembatasan.

(Saat hendak memberikan persembahan sang, kumpulkan semua dupa yang ada; ulangi ayat Perlindungan dan Pencipta Pemikiran Bodhi tiga kali.)

HUM!
Menempatkan diri sebagai yidam, dari hati nurani,
Cahaya menyeruak memurnikan semua ketidaksempurnaan dalam dupa,
Harumnya memiliki lima khasiat yang utuh sempurna,
Memberi bahagia murni yang memenuhi jalan kesadaran.

OM AH HUM (ulangi sebanyak mungkin untuk memberkati)

HUM!
Segenap guru, utama dan silsilah, Tiga Permata,
Segenap Daka, Dakini dan Pelindung Dharma,
Yang utama Dorje Shugden dan pengiringnya,
Atas kekuatan tak terbatas, datanglah.

Juga segenap dewata kelahiran, perang dan pelindung,
Dewata sekeliling, roh dan penjaga dalam delapan kelompok,
Sekumpulan tamu yang layak kujamu,
Datanglah.

Semua duduk senang di tahta masing-masing
Untuk memenuhi tindakan yang dipercayakan sang yogi,
Asap dupa luar, dalam, benda-benda ikrar dan persembahan,
Terimalah semua ini dan genapilah tindakan yang kupercayakan.

KYE!
Agar, kayu Cendana, enam rempah obat dan tumbuhan,
Dengan bumbungan asap dari api kebijaksanaan yang memenuhi langit,
Memurnikan para lama utama dan silsilah Yidam dan Tiga Permata.
Memurnikan para Daka, Dakini dan Pelindung Dharma.

Memurnikan terutama Pelindung Dharma Utama Sang Penakluk Manjunatha
Dorje Shugden dan empat emanasi utamanya.
Memurnikan kelahiran, perang dan lima dewa pelindung.
Memurnikan dewata sekeliling, roh, penjaga dan kedelapan kelompok.

Dengan kuasa mempersembahkan dupa pada tamu mulia
Semoga semua rintangan, pertikaian dan samaya dimurnikan.
Semoga umur diperpanjang, pahala dan kuasa meningkat.
Jinakkan semua penyakit pada manusia dan hewan, kelaparan, perang dan pertengkaran.

Semoga panennya bagus dan hujan turun tepat waktu.
Taklukkan segala jenis iblis dari sisi gelap, tingkatkan yang terang,
Dan setelah kita berteman secara spontan dan mengalir,
Capailah semua tujuan seperti yang diharapkan.

KI KI SO SO, LHA GYEL LO!

HUM!
Tersenangkan dan puas, para tamu kembali ke alam mereka,
Kembali saat diminta untuk menggenapi tindakan.
Dengan janji ini ijinkan ku dan semua ibu para mahluk
Untuk menikmati kebahagiaan dan keberuntungan selamanya.

Dan secara khusus, pandangan meditasi dan tindakan benar Je Rinpoche,
Tak tercela oleh pemikiran jahat, Anugrahkan keberuntungan
Agar di atas bumi, tanah dan alam bawah bersinar dengan pencerahan.

Untuk pemanggul Ajaran, semua sosok tertinggi,
Yang berbebankan pembebasan kehidupan dari tradisi murni itu,
Sang Geden, terasuk oleh hiasan mahkota, Buddha Ayah dan kedua Putranya,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan sehingga kehidupan mereka dan tindakan pencerahannya meningkat.

Meningkat meninggi bak bulan menanjak,

Dengan pemastian sempurna yang dilakukan ketiga pemikir,
Akan tiga macam obyek pemikiran tanpa pengecualian,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan Pramana, melahirkan para pemikir ulung melalui nalar.

Buah hasil kesadaran melalui delapan topik,
Jalan menuju kesadaran, maksud rahasia Prajnaparamita,

Berjalan di tapak yang menyenangkan para Buddha, bebas dari ekstrimitas ketidakberubahan dan ketidakadaan,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan Madhyamika, jalan yang mendalam.

Mendapatkan kepastian dalam cara kebangkitan yang hidup dan mati,
Sumber kasar dan halus darimana semua penyebab derita,
Pengetahuan akan delusi dan tipu muslihatnya, penyebarannya dan cara melepaskannya,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan Abhidharmakosha yang tak tercela.

Bagai dasar darimana semua ini tanpa pengecualian, tercipta,
Mempraktikkan ketiga pelatihan tinggi dengan mengandalkan

Sama bagusnya, sebagai sarana membantu lainnya,
Dengan menyingkirkan semua kebingungan dan ketidaktahuan dalam ketrampilan,
Seperti tata bahasa, astrologi, puisi, leksikografi, melukis, ketrampilan tangan dan ilmu obat,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan penguasaan yang bijak dan menyeluruh.

Khususnya, mohon berikan keberuntungan dalam pandangan, meditasi dan tindakan yang dijalankan bersamaan,
Yang tidak salah pada yang dituju, urutan dan makna dan penafsiran,
Dalam semua tahap dalam praktik pelepasan, Bodhicitta,
Cara pandang yang benar tentang kekosongan, keenam kesempurnaan, keempat cara pengumpulan.

Kemudian, dari seorang mahir dalam vajra, setelah menerima
Pendayaan keempat Tubuh, pintu masuk tantra,
Menjaga sumpah dan prinsip dengan teguh seperti menjaga hidupku sendiri,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan berupa keberhasilan dalam yoga empat sesi.

Kemudian, diperkenalkan pada sumber dasar; kelahiran, kematian dan bardo,
Yang akan dimurnikan, para pemurninya, dan buah pemurnian,
Berkati aku dengan keberuntungan untuk mencapai keseimbangan pada
roda-roda Mandala besar dan kecil yang dalam, dewata yang jelas, tingkat kematangan penciptaan.

Dengan pelafalan vajra, yang menembus pokok-pokok utama,
Membuka semua simpul saluran sehingga semua angin
Masuk, mengitari dan memudar dalam saluran utama; berkati aku dengan keberuntungan
Untuk mewujudkan jalan kebahagiaan-kekosongan, tahap penyelesaian yang membebaskan.

Cahaya jernih murni dan tidak murni berasal darinya
Dan hanya angin dan pikiran yang bangkit langsung bagai
Ilusi dalam bentuk pertanda,
Mohon berikan keberuntungan Yuganaddha, sang empunya tujuh ciri.

Singkat kata, bak melebur semua kebaikan yang terkumpul,
Dan berkat di samsara dan nirvana, keduanya duniawi dan surgawi,
Setelah diajar dengan iman teguh dan samaya murni,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan berupa kemujuran dan kecakapan.

(Membaca mantra demikian adalah cara untuk melebur semua berkat yang terkumpulkan di samsara dan nirvana menurut tradisi oral Geden. Penting untuk memiliki keyakinan yang stabil yang mampu menyatukan semua pencapaian tinggi dan biasa. Kemudian murnikan tambahan dan pengurangan dengan mantra 100 suku kata. Setelah memohon pengampunan atas kesalahan, mohonlah peninggalan tempat:)

HUM
Dewata Buddha Losang Vajradhara dan
Seluruh ladang pahala larut dalam diriku, sang yogi.
Semua kekotoran dan noda ketiga pintu termurnikan,
Ku menerima empat inisiasi dan menjadi bisa mencapai keempat Tubuh.

Para sosok duniawi, senang dengan persembahan sang,
Tanpa pikiran jahat dan saling cemburu,
Tapi dengan pikiran kasih, kembali ke persemayaman masing-masing.

Semoga kebajikan apapun yang telah aku kumpulkan
Membawa manfaat bagi Ajaran dan pengelana,
Dan terutama semoga menyebabkan intisari
Ajaran Guru Losang Dragpa yang tak pernah salah menjadi jelas selamanya!

(Bacalah doa apapun dan ayat-ayat yang membawa keberuntungan.)

    The highest purification practice is the meditation on emptiness but for all us, that is pretty impossible at this stage. We instead can engage in prostrations, 35 Confessional Buddha sutra, taking and holding vows, refraining from harm and Vajrasattva practice. Purification practices are essential for our spiritual growth. They remove negative karmic imprints and mental defilements, creating space for positive qualities to flourish .Hence its very important to practice purification in our lives which will help to cleanse our mind of negative karma. These practice inturn also remove mental defilements like anger, jealousy, and attachment. There are four powers in order to purify negative actions, firstly the power of refuge, the power of regret, the power of the antidote, and the power of resolution. By removing negative influences, purification practices create a fertile ground to develop positive qualities such as love, compassion, and wisdom. These practices have the power to purify obscuration and negative karma that prevent us from actualizing the path. With the help of these purification techniques, such as prostration, mantra recitation of the 100-syllable mantra and meditation on the deity Vajrasattva involving visualization, we could transform of heavy energies into the lightness. Vajrasattva practice is a powerful purification practice in Tibetan Buddhism.
    Thank you Rinpoche for presenting us the practice of Vajrasattva.

    Osiris is a prominent figure in Egyptian mythology, known as the god of the afterlife and his worship involved rituals and festivals. Is also known the underworld, resurrection, and fertility . Osiris is famously depicted as a green-skinned, mummified figure, often described holding a crook and flail, and wearing a distinctive crown. Interesting story behind this Osiris as a king who was murdered by his own brother Seth because of extremely jealousy . Due to the popularity of his story filmmaker made it into American science fiction action film.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting sharing of Egyptian mythology.

    Antique shops specializing in Buddhist art can be a good source, particularly for rare or antique pieces. But be cautious when buying from less reputable sources. Some statues may be illegally obtained such as stolen from temples or it might comes with something else .
    Hecelus Tan received an antique Buddha statue given by a relative. He looked at the statue feeling uneasy and having nightmare since then. Quite a few disturbance and he experienced unforeseen incidence as he related those nightmare to his parents. After consulted a Tibetan Buddhist friend as advice to return back to the shop. Then what happened next the Buddha’s head broken and was returned later.
    Thank you sharing your first paranormal experience.

    Revisit this article of how the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden took trance of the famous Panglung Oracle that had helped the H H 14th Dalai Lama on his historic escape to India. A guerrilla fighting group was formed escorting Dalai Lama through the escape route as advised by the Oracle safely into exile in India, all the way invoking Dorje Shugden to keep them safe and protected . After ensuring that His Holiness was safely in exile, they returned back to Tibet staving off the Chinese incursions. The truth must be known to all its Dorje Shugden who had saved the Dalai Lama’s life.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting sharing.

    I do believe the paranormal, everything which includes unseen beings, spirits do exist after-all. Kids with special abilities, often referred as gifted or talented. They do demonstrate exceptional abilities in one or more areas, such as academics, arts, or sports. They may show advanced cognitive skills, creative thinking, or physical prowess for their age. Identifying and nurturing these abilities is crucial for their development and well-being. They somehow expressed themselves through art, music, or other creative pursuits. I do believe they have magical powers and especially the ones that are a little bit different. Interesting watching the video.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    The term Concert of Names of Manjushri is a tantric text within Tibetan Buddhism, describing the various names and qualities of the bodhisattva Manjushri. Its usually recited and often memorized by practitioners in Buddhist ceremonies The text consists of verses that praise and invoke the qualities of Manjushri, the bodhisattva of wisdom and knowledge. By just chanting the names of Manjushri, bring numerous benefits, primarily focused on enhancing wisdom, memory, and clarity of mind. Some traditions associate the practice with protection from negative influences, such as black magic, sickness, and negative karma.
    Thank you Rinpoche for introducing this powerful practice to us at Kechara Forest Retreat , Bentong, Pahang.

    The Jonang lineage traces its roots back to the 12th century, the profound teachings of Buddha Shakyamuni. Interesting read of the History of Jonang lineage and how it converted to Gelug and how Kalachakra maintain in Gelug until today. The Jonang lineage is a school of Tibetan Buddhism that emphasizes the Kalachakra Tantra. It originated in Tibet, though suppressed in the 17th century, the Jonang tradition persevered in remote regions of Tibet and is now experiencing a revival. The Jonang lineage offers a unique perspective on Buddhist philosophy and practice, influencing other Tibetan Buddhist traditions.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing about this profound lineage.

    Since escaping from China in 1959, Tibetans refugees settled down in different parts of Indian. The Tibetan leadership and those in exile were given land, opportunities, education and aid, and so many Western charities help them. The Indian government under the leadership of Jawaharlal Nehru was kind enough and they could do whatever they like. Tibetan settlements in South India have been severely affected by a regional drought. In Tibetian Buddhism accomplished masters could influence the weather. As long as practitioners accomplished in their practices, they had guru devotion and pure samaya with their teachers, it could be done. Many witnesses including our Guru H E Tsem Rinpoche saw the masters could stop the rains. The prayers and rituals have not been effective as they gave up their commitments to their lineage lamas, related to their Dorje Shugden practice. Moreover they have lost faith in great master and gurus as they practise Dorje Shugden. They have creates very heavy negative karma. Great masters could stop the rains and making it rain and save the harvest. For the sake of the people who are suffering from horrendous drought, those samaya must be repaired practitioners must all be united again and not discriminate each others due to their Dorje Shugden practice. The Tibetan government should also repair this samaya. Interesting read .
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this .

    Manjushri is one of the most important figures in Mahayana Buddhism, and is considered a patron deity of wisdom and learning. By practicing Manjushri our wisdom can enhance and improve significantly. Helps help us with our memory.
    Through Rinpoche’s sponsorship at Gaden Sharte Monastery many monks had benefited. Rejoice to them receiving the initiation .Sponsoring the Dharma, which refers to supporting the teachings and practices of Buddhism, is considered a meritorious act in Buddhism. Acts of generosity and support for the Dharma are believed to generate positive karma, leading to positive consequences in this life and future lives.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing and explaining it.

    David Bowie, was an English singer, songwriter and actor and was once a Tibetan Buddhist practitioner. Regarded as among the most influential musicians of the 20th century . The English singer, songwriter and actor David Bowie died at his Lafayette Street home in New York City but in his will he requested his ashes to be spread according to the Buddhist rituals of Bali, Indonesia. He must been to Bali and fall for the beauty of Buddhism and culture of Bali to choose BUDDHIST ritual upon his death. David Bowie made a conscious choice that made perfect sense, not allowing fans and media to focus on his body and his death.
    Thank you Rinpoche.

    HORRIFYING, feeling sad after watching the video. The way or rather methods of slaughtering of pigs at slaughter house is indeed cruel. Just like human beings, they do feel pain and fear to be slaughter. No living beings would choose to die in pain or a painful death. Hopefully those methods have since been changed to minimize animal suffering. Stop consuming meat and choosing to go meatless or on vegetarian is the best choice.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this to bring awareness of how those poor pigs suffer before been killed.

The Unknown

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

  • What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    8 years ago
    What the meat industry figured out is that you don't need healthy animals to make a profit.
    Sick animals are more profitable... farms calculate how close to death they can keep animals without killing them. That's the business model. How quickly they can be made to grow, how tightly they can be packed, how much or how little can they eat, how sick they can get without dying... We live in a world in which it's conventional to treat an animal like a block of wood. ~ Jonathan Safran Foer
