Zamkar comes into the Picture

Jul 25, 2012 | Views: 893

About a year later after getting Yogi (mumu), my friend and student adopted Zamkar baby. Zamkar and mumu together. They played non-stop although mumu is older and bigger than little Zamkar Baby.

See the beautiful pictures and videos of Mumu and baby Zamkar below.

Zamkar comes over 2-3 times a week to play with mumu and get snacks. They are so adorable together. We are making blessed Buddha pendants for our pets and other pets to wear. Front will be a Tara and back will be their names and our telephone.

    The Chair

    I have one chair I usually sit on to do my sadhana, watch a program, read, write, research and so on. But many times I return from my bathroom, Oser girl has taken over my chair. She gives me this look like, it’s her chair! She’s a spunky little schnauzer. The room has so much space, other sofas and places of interest, but my Oser has to hijack my chair always. I have to gently move her over and squeeze in next to her like I did last night into the same chair. We sat together for hours and she fell asleep in my chair huddled against me. Love is sharing a chair even though it’s meant for one occupant at a time. ? Tsem Rinpoche

    It is incredible how smart Oser girl is. She can steal the treat away from Dharma boy and so casually. Wow. She is so smart. A must watch short video!! Tsem Rinpoche

    Mumu boy was Tsem Rinpoche’s little Schnauzer. Partly because of Mumu Kechara was started and you must find out why that is. Do read more and see very cute adorable pictures: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/?p=122472

    Zamkar”s fur was like Mumu”s fur but now he is like Oser. I did not know that dogs fur can change colour

  8. Edward ooi on Mar 23, 2014 at 1:49 am

    Dear Rinpoche, Zamkar baby is really cute!!! I thought that Zamkar’s hair was all white for his entire life but surprising it wasn’t! I never thought that dogs fur or hair can change colour. I’m getting so excited because I want to visit the mumus tomorrow! If I really have the chance to visit them, I will be so happy that I can fly. Just joking! Hehe

  9. VInnie Tan on Sep 15, 2013 at 2:15 am

    Zamkar is so cute when he was younger! He is still cute now, he is just such a lovely little doggie. So fun to be around with.

  10. Joy on Mar 4, 2013 at 7:23 pm

    Oh my gawwwdddd… Zamkar baby is really so adorable when he was a baby! I remembered when Paul first got him and how we were trying to make him and mumu friends. Zamki was such a shy baby and mumu was so gentle playing with him!

    As he grew, his character became more prominent. Knowing Paul was very busy at work, Rinpoche kindly offered to bring Zamkar baby to Ladrang so he can play with Mumu and not get too depressed and lonely missing Paul. One thing’s for sure… he is a really sneaky greedy boy. He used to eat up the candles that was offered on the altar in Ladrang but he was amazingly fine. No problem digesting it at all. There was also one time Zamkar came in to Rinpoche’s room and ate Rinpoche’s sushi when Rinpoche went in to the toilet! It was so funny, Rinpoche had to teach him a lesson and banned him from Ladrang for a week or two and asked him to “think” about what he has done. He never dared do it again. Now Zamki is part of the Ladrang family and he is so welled cared for by KB and our Nepalese brothers and he is happy, no more depression and socializes with everyone nicely.

  11. Wah Ying on Nov 11, 2012 at 8:19 pm

    Oh baby, so cute! I like the last picture showing Mumu and Zamkar like dancing to together. It brighten up my day, hehe. Our pet needs friends also just like us.

    May Mumu and Zamkar always happy and blessed by Buddhas!

  12. DR on Aug 28, 2012 at 11:35 am

    Cute! Zamkar was so tiny when he came to us. Yogi towers over him and looks like the big brother. Now, Zamkar is the biggest and fattest!

  13. tenzin llhamo on Aug 13, 2012 at 1:26 pm

    So adorable!! They are truly blessed and fortunate to have the karma to be in such a loving family and friends who adores them. Everyday they get to circumambulate and have fun in Haven’s garden, how nice! May they always have the good fortune and blessed in all lives.

  14. EricLee KHJB on Aug 4, 2012 at 9:10 pm

    好可爱的狗狗喔,能够得到仁波切以及所有工作团队的呵护。我想这一些动物的福报不小,要不然怎么会与仁波切结下这么难得的缘分,希望他们能珍惜这得来不易的机会。我们人也一样,既然有机会认识仁波切,而且还可以跟他那么靠近,就应该好好的珍惜这难得的机会,好好的修行,我相信最后受益的人,一定会是自己。

  15. jennifer on Aug 4, 2012 at 2:50 pm

    Thank you Rinpoche for the video and gorgeous photos of Mumu and Zamkar.
    Mumu, Zamkar, Oser and Dharma are just toooo cute for words. They are absolutely lovely, friendly adorable and so very huggable! I cannot imagine a world or my life without mumus. Whenever i see them, we have group hugs and i am so reluctant to let them go – they are so cuddly! Like mobile soft toys , they tumble around together, nudge each other, play with each other and when tired of playing, lie down side by side and rest. Such love they have for each other – what joy to see them together!

  16. Lim Han Nee on Aug 4, 2012 at 1:23 pm

    Zamkar and the Mumus in ladrang are truly blessed to be in such a loving environment. They even have stupas for them to circumambulate in a fun way.Rinpoche thinks of everything when it comes to blessing their mindstreams with Dharma and the Three Jewels so that they will take good human rebirths and be connected to the Dharma for their future lives.

    Rinpoche so loves them that he has put them on a vegetarian diet so that they will not be collecting negative karma from taking meat.It is hard to train pets to go vegetarian but this has been accomplished.

    Paul and David are also great Dharma ‘fathers’ to Zamkar.

  17. PhillisChin on Aug 3, 2012 at 6:33 pm

    SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aiyooooooo!!! ^^, ^^, ^^,

  18. Wan Wai Meng on Aug 1, 2012 at 3:30 am

    Zamkar looks like a mini sheep. From his baby pictures it does no seem like he will be so white late. Paul must have taken care of Zamkar really well.

  19. pat on Aug 1, 2012 at 12:39 am

    Both Yogi and Zamkar are so cute… i like the photo which they are holding each others hands and having a good time..they are telling everybody ” The one next to me is my best friend’….. both of you are so lucky.

  20. justin cheah on Aug 1, 2012 at 12:09 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing these cute photos of Mumu and Zamkar. I like the one picture that David is hugging Zamkar! so cute!

  21. deborah on Jul 31, 2012 at 2:58 pm

    So adorable. Wish I could keep dogs too. Unfortunately I live in an apartment 🙁

  22. judy.lam@kechara.com on Jul 30, 2012 at 4:15 pm

    Baby Zamkar after a bath is super cute! Both Mumu & Zamkar are very fortunate to be in an environment where Rinpoche & everyone showers them with love and care. Thank you for sharing these beautiful moments with us Rinpoche.

  23. June (KH-JB) on Jul 30, 2012 at 1:33 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing Zamkar and Oser’s childhood pictures to us,I really enjoy looking at these pictures.They are so adorable and cute,,hope can give them a big hug^_^

  24. Lim (KH JB) on Jul 30, 2012 at 12:53 am

    Zamkar is so cute as his Master… LOL…

    The dogies are so fortunate to meet Rinpoche and his student, they are always be well care and good foods. May they able to get more merits by surrounding Dharmic environment so they can have a good rebirth in next life.

  25. Seng Aun on Jul 28, 2012 at 9:49 pm

    Animals, especially dogs are just like humans. They share some of the same feeling like pain, grief and joy. As they are growing up, they need to be taught right from wrong, just like teaching our own children.

    Judging from the pictures, one can tell that these beautiful dogs are being deeply loved by their Master. As dogs, they are so lucky to be under the great care of Rinpoche, Paul and David.

    Now, don’t some of us want to be these beautiful dogs?

    Just joking!!!

  26. Irene Lim on Jul 28, 2012 at 4:36 pm

    Yogi and Zamkar are long time friend!

  27. Carmen on Jul 28, 2012 at 12:03 pm

    Zamkar baby cuteeeee!! All grown up, now he looks even more adorable..like a little piglet. When Zamkar first went to Ladrang (Haven) to play, he was adjusting to all the other mumus.. Now, they’re all best buds and having a blast together everyday.

    Rinpoche really takes cares and loves animals! Like David, I don’t know anyone who shows so much love to both animals and mankind the same besides Rinpoche. The mumus at the Ladrang, are all very well taken care of. Rinpoche even went to the extent of building a mumu Buddha Garden for the mumus so that they can run around, play, whilst unknowingly circuambulating around Buddhas that have been placed all over the garden.

    Here’s the article about Mumu’s garden:
    http://blog.tsemtulku.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/mumu-pets/mumu%E2%80%99s-buddha-garden.html

    This is out of the point, but Paul looks so young there, like a teenage football player. :p.

  28. Pastor Yek Yee on Jul 28, 2012 at 8:55 am

    OMB, When I first met Zamkar at Heruka’s house it is sooo super fat and it like to eat. Zamkar like to eat everything. Zamkar is so cute, it is very happy and easy going. It always smile and play with you. While I see Zamkar I will be so happy because it is happy dog. Zamkar can make your mood change and be happy play with you. I love Zamkar, super cuteee…

  29. Leann Lim on Jul 27, 2012 at 6:57 pm

    Baby Zamkar so cute…There is a lot of good photo and good times between Zamkar and Mumu…so adorable….Well caring and love for them…May them have a happy and well life…between, Paul look….emmmm..’brighter’ now..hahah

  30. Jace Chong on Jul 27, 2012 at 11:27 am

    Aiyo, I miss Zamkar so much. I was staying with Paul and David a year ago, and get to know Zamkar.

    He is very cute, sometimes very naughty when the “mama” not around. When I was alone at home, he is my best friend, always stay beside me and want to play with me. But not when Paul comes home, Zamkar will just forget about me and go to his mama…hehe…Zamkar always miss mama as Paul usually came home late, sometimes outstation.

    Glad to know he has so many friends in Haven now. I hope he still remember me ^.^

  31. Veron Tung on Jul 27, 2012 at 9:22 am

    Awhh… Zamkar is so cute! He is such a blessed dog! Zamkar has friends and Haven friends to play and love him!
    Paul, yes, we really envy your hairstyle.. why change it? 😛

  32. Frederick Law on Jul 27, 2012 at 2:47 am

    Zamkar so cute…hehe

  33. patsy on Jul 26, 2012 at 11:35 pm

    Zamkar and Mumu are so cute and adorable and they get along so well. They are so lucky and blessed to be near Rinpoche and well taken care of:)

  34. Sam on Jul 26, 2012 at 11:24 pm

    They are so cute…and these pictures make my day wonderful:)
    Thankyou Rinpoche for sharing.
    Please take care 🙂

  35. Paul Yap on Jul 26, 2012 at 7:40 pm

    Thanks to Rinpoche posting up many nice pictures of Zamkar baby, and thank you Rinpoche for taking good care of the mumus. Yogi, Oser, Dharma and Zamkar they all play together daily, its fun and healthy for them.

    And to you guys out there…you are just jealous of my hair la, haha! 😉

  36. David Lai on Jul 26, 2012 at 7:02 pm

    OMG!!! I love Zamkar baby. He’s so cuteeeeeeee!! He’s so cute when he was younger. Look at that little munster. He looks a lot like Ozer baby girl. If I am not mistaken, they are both related. Rinpoche really loves his mumus. Never knew any person who loves animals so much that he would make everyone go vegetarian.

    • Henry Ooi on Aug 5, 2012 at 1:33 am

      David, take it easy. You are suffocating the poor mumu. LOL!

  37. Julia Tan on Jul 26, 2012 at 5:54 pm

    I get to know Zamkar when I was volunteering in Haven months ago. David send Zamkar over to play with Dharma, Yogi and Oser every morning. They are supper cute and best friends.
    Zamkar loves Paul and David very much. He would immediately stop playing with the rest when he saw Paul or David. Zamkar will sit next to David’s feet quietly. He will follow David around very closely when David wherever David go (inside Haven). In his eyes there’s only David at that time. When he saw Paul, He will get excited and jumped to Paul and hugged Paul by putting his two hands and face on Paul’s shoulder. Sweet uh!! What a sweet and loyal friend to have. Lucky you Paul and David!

  38. choisheem on Jul 26, 2012 at 5:11 pm

    These mumus look so adorable. Zamkar’s fur looks so much different now. He is all white now-looks like a little lamb. Yes, these pets seem very happy and calm. They are so blessed to have owners who loves and cares for them so much.

  39. Sheryl KH (JB) on Jul 26, 2012 at 1:57 pm

    From all angles I can only feel how fortunate Zamkar and Mumu are. They have the love from their respective owners, the pet pendants that bless their current and future lives, Buddha statues for them to circumambulate about and I believe many other great stuff that Rinpoche and Paul will not be selfish in giving to them.

    Zamkar is truly fortunate to be adopted into a caring home.

    How I wish all pets can be so well taken care of like Mumu and Zamkar.

  40. Milly on Jul 26, 2012 at 1:59 am

    So cute cute. Yogi, Zamkar and the other mumus in Haven are so blessed. Even animals have their own karma. To have the merits to be Rinpoche’s pets and surrounded by holy Dharma 24×7. May they quickly take rebirth in the human realm and be surrounded and practice Dharma in their next rebirth.

  41. Han on Jul 26, 2012 at 1:39 am

    So cute! Zamkar and Mumu took so many pictures together with smiling faces,they really happy to be together. Dogs are like human, they like to have companion or playmates, may Zamkar and Mumu continue to have their happy time together for long….

  42. lucy yap on Jul 25, 2012 at 11:22 pm

    Zamkar and Mumu are the best of friends and love to play together. Nice picture of them together!Are they holding ‘hands’?My dog loves it when I give her a bear hug too!.Paul,like William says,”nice hairstyle”.

  43. Helena Chin on Jul 25, 2012 at 10:55 pm

    Awwwwww they are so cute!!! Baby Zamkar is a big baby now hehe 🙂 very happy to see all the mumus get along well and have very great time.

  44. Siong Woan on Jul 25, 2012 at 9:14 pm

    Lucky Zamkar n Mumu, may you live a happy life !myeah man…. Paul – nice hair style hehe

  45. abby f on Jul 25, 2012 at 8:20 pm

    Animals have their life just like us. they have family, feelings, memories, emotions. They are just like us. Thank you Rinpoche for sharing Zamkar and Oser’s childhood pictures to all of us. 🙂

  46. william on Jul 24, 2012 at 4:00 pm

    Different religions and faiths have unique teachings ,and thwew is no right or wrong. All have their respective views of divinity, humanity’s relationship with the divine . Many faiths share common principles, like compassion and ethical conduct. All religions in the world teach us empathy, compassion, harmony and respect.
    Love peace harmony kindness balance of mind health body and spirit. Respect for all things. That’s true religion. They differ in practices and methods, but they ultimately lead to the same goal.
    Thank you Rinpoche interesting topic shared.

    Thank you H E Tsem Rinpoche and Pastor Seng Piow for creating this YouTube channel which has benefited many people all over the world. Great idea indeed where we learn , from the Dharma sharing. Pastor Seng Piow first started Rinpoche YouTube channel years ago back 2006. A very powerful Dharma talk and sharing by Tsem Rinpoche that covers a wide range of topics, and with Rinpoche explanation we could understand better. Kechara blog team has compiled a collection of videos, for us . It did help me to understand and learn more of Dharma through those videos. More to learn for me . Merely by listening to Rinpoche voice is a blessing.
    Thanks again with folded hands……

    Sonam Tsemo, an important Tibetan sprititual leader and Buddhist scholar, and was acclaimed as an incarnation of Durjayachandra. He received extensive spiritual training from his father, deepened his studies under the famous scholar Chapa Chokyi Senge. By the time he was eighteen he had mastered the triple discipline of teaching, debate and composition. After his return to Sakya, he held the throne of the monastery for three years. He is the author of a famous commentary on the Bodhicharyavatara. He dedicated the rest of his life to studies and meditation. In 1182 he passed away age 41 into pure land of Sukhavati and said to have attained full Buddhahood.
    Thank you Rinpoche great sharing.

    A very clear explanation of Vajrayogini by Rinpoche . Reading and listening to the video in this blog explains well. Vajrayogini’s power is her ability to guide practitioners to enlightenment by transforming ordinary experiences, desire, and the ego into spiritual paths. Her form symbolizes the transformation of desire and ego into boundless empathy for all beings. Her practice aims to eradicate the ego, a root cause of suffering and attachment. In return which lead to a more vibrant, kind, and compassionate us.
    Thank you Rinpoche .

    In Buddhism, holy relics are the sacred preserved cremated remains of the Buddha, and other enlightened beings. Holy relics are believed to carry the spiritual qualities, compassion, and wisdom of the enlightened being. And it serve as a powerful tool to connect practitioners with the Buddha’s path to enlightenment. Throughout history, relics have played an important role in major world religions and are considered to hold great spiritual significance. They are revered in Buddhist communities around the world. Sadly to these days only a handful of these sites exist today. These holy relic sites are rare. Many Buddhists make it a point to visit these precious relic sites . Merely by touching, seeing, and even thinking about relics can connect anyone with the spiritual power of the Buddha. Each relic is believed to carry a part of the Buddha’s essence, and worshipping them is seen as a way to connect with the Buddha’s wisdom and compassion. These sacred objects, often including bones, hair, robes, and so on are venerated through offerings and prayers, allowing Buddhists to connect with the Buddha’s wisdom and compassion and accumulate merit. Wow China had many holy sites which housed various relics of Buddha Shakyamuni. Just to mentioned some of these holy sites in Chiana such as Tooth relic at Lingguang Temple, Beijing,Grand True Relic Pagoda at Famen Temple, Shaanxi, Rare skull relic enshrined in Foding Palace, Nanjing and Buddha’s bone relic at Ayuwang Temple, Ningbo. Looking the beautiful relics temple and reading this article is a blessing. More so if we go on pilgrimages to these holy sites.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this wonderful sharing.

    It was through the 6th Panglung Oracle the Dalai Lama had a safe and successful escape from Tibet to India. That’s in 1959, following Dorje Shugden advice and instructions which route to escape. This story in comics form is a great way to let more people know the truth. Senior officials from Monastery eyewitness affidavits signed, they were the monks who travelled together with the Dalai Lama. All these cannot be wrong .A truth and only truth to be shared with.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Believing that the paranormal can be real, is one way to escape the reality we live in and make it a little more interesting. People sometimes want to believe something more is out there than only a platonic routine life. Not everyone believes in ghosts, but there have been plenty of celebrity ghost sightings over the years. Most scientists deny that ghosts exist, but I do believe ghost rather spirits do exist . Ghosts are ingrained in many cultures, with people rising from the dead or being able to communicate from the beyond. The human fascination for the unexplained plays a big role in this world.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing such an interesting videos. Sound scary. Doing prayers and dedicated to them will be fine as long as we don’t’ get involved with them.

    Opening Eye Chenrezigis a Buddhist practice and form of Chenrezig focused on healing physical eye problems and developing wisdom eyes. The practice involves prayers and mantras to develop compassion and it was transmitted by Lama Gangchen Rinpoche . This practice is designed to train one’s mind in making life beneficial for all sentient beings through the yoga of the Compassionate Buddha. Well this practice has been effective for those who sincerely had engaged in reciting the mantra consistently.
    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing methods to heal the defects, problems, and disturbances to our eyes.

    Helmut Gassner, is a senior Buddhist monk from Austria also known as Venerable Gelong Jampa. After meeting Venerable Geshe Rabten Rinpoche back then ,his began to have an interest in Buddhism . Venerable Geshe Rabten Rinpoche had impressed him deeply so much so he began studying Tibetan language, Buddhist philosophy, debate and meditation. Throughout his lifetime, he has translated for many high lamas. He translated for HH the 14th Dalai Lama between 1979 and 1995. Helmut Gassner has recognized and value the knowledge of Dorje Shugden . He noticed the positive qualities, acknowledging Dorje Shugden’s significance, and developing a comprehensive, insightful of it. He even received many first-hand accounts of how Dorje Shugden has been extremely useful to the Dalai Lama. Following the Dalai Lama’s move to ban the practice of Dorje Shugden where discrimination and fights happened. The event didn’t bothered him much as he knew the truth that the practice of Dorje Shugden is an integral part of the Gaden Tradition. In 1999 at the Friedrich-Naumann-Foundation in Hamburg, Germany, he bravely spoke the truth regarding Dorje Shugden. His devotion to his teacher, the dharma and the truth compelled him to speak up . Interesting read.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this great sharing .

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
