hi there pastor, i would like to ask, i bought a buddha pendant from Nepalese shop at petaling street. i don't know where the pendant from (it's a thai brass buddha), i just chant shakyamuni buddha mantra, chenrezig mantra and dorje shugden mantra 7 times each and blow on it. is it ok to "bless" that way and wear it?

I heard that offering of seven bowl to the gods is that when lord buddha sakyamuni was born, he walk seven steps and he just fall down…i am in dilemma.

what are the diffrence for these 2 Dorje Shungden Mantras and which emanation does it reffers to ?

1. OM BENZA WIKI BITANA SHATROO MARAYA PET
2.OM BENZA WIKI BITANA RAKYA RAKYA HUNG
3. Om Benza wiki Bitana Soha

for Demonic attacks which mantra can be chanted and how many times should it be chanted .

i have a friend who is from a different faith who is constantly tormented by demons and negative entities. I recommended setrap practice with guru yoga but he is unable to engage himself in a practice because he is living in a household hold of diffrent faith . Is there any chanting he can do ? setrap , sengdoma , trakze ? which would help him

I have received the Yamantaka Empowerment from the Dalai Lama yet I have not used an inner offering of Rilbu during the practice… where can I find this substance to use with practice?

Hello Pastor, A khenpo guru from Tibetan buddhism once told me (literal translation in english would be) something along the lines of my soul/energy is lost. I wondered if that could be the reason why as a child i was docile and not bright (although good in academics) and outgoing like other kids. Needless to say i haven't enjoyed much confidence in myself and not much success in life. Unfortunately he didn't suggest a solution for me. What would you say to this topic of losing one's epicentre (kind of) and not feeling confident and bright and forthcoming and achieving success like my peers?

Dear Pastor I was reading and watching about your suggestion and I defently need a guide to practice the Lama tsonkhapa and follow correctly the meditation of Gyenze Dorje Shugden. I would like asking you, if is any posibility to have a teacher or a guide to help me to do my spiritual journal practice and Dharma Meditation correctly.

Thanks again.
Dolce.

Hi Pastor,

First of all I want to say thank you for taking the time to respond.
For me, this has been going on for 20 years by itself, it's not something I'm looking for but a part of my life simply.

Why I am here to ask you is that Lotus flowers and Avalokitesvara are Bodisattvas and I want to understand why I see them.

The journey is not over yet and I live a completely normal life with this as something that just happens. Nothing I compel or seek.

However, I understand that I need a blessing from someone who can and know this things.
so next year I will go to Bhutan and meet a Rinpoche.

Wishing you all the best in life.
In love and light
Bitte

Dear Pastor, thank you so much for your answer I will be very active with the eminence website to learn more and better the Buddhism principles. Thanks for the interest to know about the issues that I am facing. Basically is so difficult for me not only do my basic and normal life like any other human, is so many obstacle to help others, to have a healthy relationship wit my husband, friend coworkers, family, sometimes I feel something powerful beyond of the normal is holding me. I feel like I have a huge rock over my live who don't allow me to move and move better. I have the hope to understand what it is and how I can fight to go out of this,very deep in my heart I feel that I need a ritual to clear up what ever t is, I am tire to fight and don't see any result, a positive and happy result specially when I trying to help others always something is in the way who make things happen with difficulties, an example I just wrote you before and when I finish, the internet was without connection, and this is the second paragraph that I am send, If you see my question twice was for that reason. Thank you so much again and I hope you can help me.
My respect,
Dolce

Hello Pastors, a local Vietnamese Buddhist temple is struggling right now where I live. The teacher is a very compassionate person, but someone took advantage of his kindness. A cook that they hired to work in a restaurant (to pay for the temple) married a rich woman and they bought the restaurant out entirely. They did this when the head monk became ill and went away for treatment. The cook broke his verbal agreement to put profits towards the temple. This was the reason they leased the restaurant, so the temple had an income.

It's sad because they took this person off the streets and he had a criminal record with little chance to get back into society. They let him live in the temple, gave him spending money, a job and he repaid their kindness by stabbing them in the back. Now the temple faces a possible end. So to make a long story short, I was wondering what options monks have and if the few of us here in the local area can do anything? Are there any common things lay people can do that are in line with Buddhist principles and that won't be considered taboo in a cultural sense? I want to help but I don't want to over-step my boundaries in any way. If you could let me know I would appreciate any advice you or any other pastors have. Thank you!

Hi Pastors,

Here are more details.

I saw beings of light When I was a child, and even then the beautiful patterns in my mind When I closed my eyes. I was at this time that i remember 10 years old.

When I was 28 I started my kundalini As I wrote EARLIER, activate itself.
It Began to feel like a snake in the lower back, for everytime it was active, it went higher and higher in the spine. With many emotions, sadness and tears sometimes even panic. I have never meditated in my entire life.

All that happens just happens When I go to sleep. I'm awake all the time.
When this started I got out body experience OBE, I could stand next to my bed and see the body lie in bed. I Can See The Silver Thread That Runs from the body where I was standing to the stomach in the bed. I can walk through walls, for me everything is just thinner and thicker Energy.

I traveled to different places in this state, SAW Other Worlds.

One time, I remember very well when i left my body, I came to a landscape Entirely in pastel colors and it was so light, in front of me is a gigantic gate into gold.
On the left side stands a man I'll go to. He says to me
"Your Time Has not Come Yet go back" and I went back to the body.

Some years ago I chased demons out of my home, it was scary When It Happened, today I understand there is some sort of process I go through.

I have seen what I wrote EARLIER about the lotus flowers and Avalokitesvara.
Forgot to write That I also see a net above my head. Understand todaythat I see 3rd eye chakra above my head, or the Flower of Life.

For me it's about 3 energies one from the feet, one from the head and then the kundalini. Kundalini Increase in vibrasion almost as it ACCELERATES ..
Everything is so strong, When this happens, I also see an incredibly strong light almost like a door opening above his head.

I see something moving up there. I have traveled the tunnel, seeing so many patterns and light phenomena, now I also see it withtheir eyes open. I am there fore in full consciousness When everything happens. I have heard a beautiful voice Answered me questions I asked straight out in the air two times.

I do not know what you might need for information.
I would point out that i'm fully fit, and a woman of 49 years in Sweden

Bless you

Dear Pastors,

Sometimes when I practice Gaden Lhagyama I notice that my breath stops for extended periods of time. Sometimes it even surprises me and I realize that I am not breathing! I also sometimes feel a "pressure" type of feeling in the center of my chest. It is not unpleasant or painful, but it does not feel pleasant either. Today I felt it when the visualized Je Tsongkhapa descends from the crown to the heart. I am wondering if these things are related to winds and channels? If so is this a good sign or a bad sign?

Thank you for your help and your wisdom!

Love, Jake

Dear Pastors:
My name is Dolce, since I am teenager I always feel that I see people and dogs around me, and in some occasions I can see things that will happen in the future, and I even see it when is happened. I always been in a spiritual path and feel kind of special gift, few years ago I have been practicing Buddhism beliefs by myself with out guide. Recently I am having a very struggling time and I would like to be more involve in Dharma. I am confuse because I read is 2 school of Buddha who people are practicing today. I follow Eminence Tsem Rinpoche around a week ago and when I watched for first time one of his video I cannot stop to cry, I realize I need help to find and learn how to help others. I need desperate to be in an spiritual path and I don't know where can I start. Thanks so much for your advise and your time.

Dolce.

Dear Dharma pastors,

I'm a devout worshiper of Bhaishajya guru,kindly tell me about the offerings and method of worshiping him,also is it alright If I wear a lapis lazuli ring.

Many thanks

https://www.facebook.com/computer.problem1/videos/962313613822523/ this is a video of an asian girl abusing two poodle puppies forcing them to stand on their feet. do you know anything about this case? Can you help?

so, I recently discovered that I have many many many house-guests (sorry, I mean mice/rats) someone will probably come out to advise me, but and I would really like to do something different if possible. I don't want to hurt them (although that may be inevitable due to where they are their number, and the entire situation) i have heard sometimes mice will disappear of their own accord, if certain prayers are said. I'm not sure what I could do, as my prayers are not strong enough, and wonder if there is anything you could advise in this sitution. with many thanks for your time, and thoughts for this. .

I was playing migtsema to them and making a small prayer that we could get out of this situation 🙂

Hi,
Do not know how I ended up on this site, but all tend to have a meaning.

When I was 28, so started my kundalini by itself. It took many years before I realized what it was. To not tell the whole story of my life, I go straight to the point.

For 15 years a go I see a light person in my bedroom that gave me a white lotusflower.
Last year I have seen one blue lotus flower with orange pistils and the background was yellow, it was yellow all around me. I also have twice seen many arms in gold and the message that came to me was Buddha so I searched on the internet. and found that it was this I saw Avalokitesvara. Everything is alive in my mind, I see it when I close my eyes.
I began to see a net above my head in my mind, it took eight months before I found what I saw, it's 3d-eye chakra or the flower of life. I see a colorfull pattern in front of me, it lives, it goes green 10 years ago was the pattern in yellow.
The energy that comes with this is so strong.
Why do I see this beautiful things.
I am not from any Buddhist culture. Im from europe and I´m Christian.

Bless you

Hello you have a very nice web site love it and love your teaching !
I have a questions that I need explanation. I always love wrathful buddhas and I have those attraction for them and don't know why do I have this attraction ? and why do I have such a strong desire of practicing vajrayana ? I love too get these empowerment I already receive Durje Shugden and some empowerment but bot the higher tantra empowerment. I am a practitioner in the new kadampa tradition but ! I know that I need too have a strong connection with the teacher but I do note feel that connection ! Love is book but do not feels this connection !!! When I look some great master such as you just looking at you and I could feel a connection ! It is the same as other great master too ! So what should I do ? I want a teacher to guide me from distance because I do not have great master near me. Could I take you as my teacher ?

Dear Pastors,

I've been practicing Buddhism for over 7 years now. I met my partner a year into my practice . He has never really like Buddhism but we have always agreed to disagree but lately he has expressed more intense emotions about Buddhism and it is really hurting me and my practice. We have been together for 6 years. He is convinced that Buddhism is evil and demon worship… Any thoughts for me.

Thank you,

J C

when you are poor..,people will ignore you,belittle you..when you are self sufficient and living good and rich..people will jealous you..and some will try to get big money or favor by giving small through flattery,small gift..etc..if they are not satisfied ..they will remain discounted and distance..such a mundane,samsaric life…I intend to know..if there is any KARMA involved in such mundane life transaction…especially for that poor guy in earlier life and gradually becoming self sufficient and able to lead satisfactory material life..THANK YOU..
