7 years agoWhat 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

- January 17, 2025 05:29Barbara asked: It says my karma debt number is nonepastor answered: Dear Barbara, Karmic debt numbers represent aspects of yourself that you need to face and work on in this life. These aspects come from decisions and actions that you have made in previous lives that have an impact in this life for your spiritual growth. According to numerology, having a karmic debt number of "0" doesn't mean that you don't have any karma. It means that rather than having a specific karmically caused aspect that you need to deal with, you actually have to manifest your ability/potential for change in a positive direction. Find something that you are passionate about that helps others, and go all the way with it. For example, Mahatma Gandhi had a karmic debt number of "0" but he ended up being part of the freedom movement in India, which ultimately changed the course of the entire Indian sub-continent. From a Buddhist aspect, it could be explained as you having no overtly powerful habitual karmic aspect that has opened in this birth. For example, you don't have overly powerful habitual patterns of jealousy or lust. You do have these of course, but they are not so strong in shaping your actions as if you had another karmic debt number. For those people, they would really need to work on such emotions deeply in order to overcome negative situations in life. I hope this explanation helps.
- January 13, 2025 21:53Pritisha asked: How will my 2025 be ?pastor answered: Dear Pritisha, We have two astrology calculators that you might be interested in: Chinese Zodiac: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/horoscopes/the-chinese-zodiac.html Tibetan Astrology: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/tibetan-astrology/tibetan-astrology.html I hope this helps. Thank you.
- December 27, 2024 14:07Bhavisha asked: If I do recite Mantra in my mind while doing domestic work as I am housewife Will it has effect? Because as H H Tsem Rinpoche said Mantra is in form of sound but while reciting in mind it has no sound effect. (I do recite bit louder and with tounge sound in sadhna but I want to ask so I can get more benefits if mind recitation is good, while doing domestic work I can't recite louder because then I will have breathing issues as I am doing domestic work)pastor answered: Dear Bhavisha, Thank you for your question. Yes, mantras need to be recited out aloud, but it is very specific how loud they should be. You should not be chanting out very loud, like shouting. In fact, you should only be chanting loud enough so that you can hear the mantra, but if a person was standing near you, they would not be able to make out what you are saying. So when chanting mantras, you can even recite them as a whisper. I think chanting the mantra as a whisper may help in your situation, as you are doing domestic work. As long as there is sound created when you chant, then they will have an effect. This is in relation to personal practice. When in pujas or group practice mantras are supposed to be chanted loudly, however in personal practice mantras are always recited quietly. Mantras generally are not supposed to be chanted in the mind, they don't have an effect as there is no sound vibration created. There are only a handful of mantras that can be recited in the mind only, but those are restricted for some very high practices only. I hope this helps. thank you.
- December 4, 2024 01:04Lhamu asked: I have been following this website and all the astrology seems to be true according birth date, however I am still in between of believing in existence of god. What I have in my mind is that we all the living being would vanish after our death and that’s making me feel bad. Would you able to explain me, what happen after death, will there be soul ? Thank you 🙏 pastor answered: Dear Lhamu, Thanks for your message. In Tibetan Buddhism, we do not believe in God. By that I mean an all-supreme creator being who governs everything. We do have gods, but they are sentient beings like us, but they are not all-powerful beings. In Buddhism, we believe in reincarnation of the mind, so when we pass away, we are reborn in one of the different realms of existence. Then when we die in that life, we again take rebirth. This process is known as samsara or cyclic existence. The goal of Buddhists is to escape from this process because we are stuck inside it. When we get out of the process, we achieve Enlightenment. You can read some introductory books about Buddhism to understand what Buddhists believe. Thank you and I hope this helps.
- November 24, 2024 22:25Kenny asked: Hello pastors! I have one questions about: Can i do daily simple prayers and recite Hayagriva mantra without empowerments? Thank you very much.pastor answered: Dear Kenny, Yes, you can recite Hayagriva's mantra without empowerment. You can find some more information about Hayagriva here: https://resources.tsemtulku.com/buddhas/lower-tantra/hayagriva.html. You can also recite a short praise to Hayagriva before doing the mantra: As the power and force of all the Buddhas, For the sake of subduing those difficult to be subdued, You display the body of The Powerful Wrathful One; I prostrate to the wrathful conqueror Hayagriva! (x3) Mantra HRI PEMA DATRI HAYAGRIVA HULU HULU HUNG PHET I hope this helps. Thank you.
- November 21, 2024 12:02Duy asked: Hi pastor Can you share to me some information about Marici. Can i recite her mantra?pastor answered: Dear Duy, You can find a short description of Marici here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/one-minute-story/the-goddess-of-the-dawn-marici Her mantra can be safely recited by anyone, in fact it is very beneficial. The mantra is: OM MARITSE MAM SOHA I hope this helps and may Marici bless you. Thank you.
- November 18, 2024 12:35Ling Kan asked: Hi sir, is there anyway I can buy a prayer book for guanyim with English pinyin. Thank youpastor answered: Dear Ling Kan, Thank you for your question. We are a Tibetan Buddhist organisation, hence our prayers are either in English, Chinese or Tibetan. We don't have any prayers that are available in Pinyin. In Tibetan Buddhism, Guanyin is actually worshipped in a male form. He is known as Chenresig in Tibetan or Avalokiteshvara in Sanskrit. You can find a short yet very praise to Chenresig here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/one-minute-story/powerful-and-short-praise-to-avalokitesvara-chenrezig I hope this helps. Thank you.
- November 16, 2024 19:03Lee asked: Hello Pastor! I would like to ask about this verse in Kangso: KHYE PAR DAG GI RING NEY TEN PEY LHA DRAG TSEL CHEN PO TUNG WA DI RÖL LA SÖL WAR DZÖ LA NYIN TSHEN DÜ DRUG TU NAM ZHI’I THRIN LEY YEL WA MEY PAR DZÖ. Which's deity this verse told about? and do you have translate of this verse? Thank you. pastor answered: Dear Lee, Unfortunately, I do not know which deity that verse is dedicated to. We do not have an English translation of the entire Kangso as of yet which I can check for you. On a side note, there are many Protectors invoked throughout the Serkym practice such as Six-Armed Mahakala, White Mahakala, Kalarupa, Palden Lhamo, Four-Armed Mahakala, Vaishravana, Begtse and other enlightened protectors. There are also specific verses to Setrap and his entourage, Kache Marpo and his entourage, Namkha Barzin, etc. So the serkym prayer to Dorje Shugden includes offerings to many different protectors to aid practitioners in their aims.
- November 14, 2024 01:22Om asked: Hello pastor, After a long time i am asking this question, hope you are doing well. Actually i am just a beginner to dharma practice, i do mantra recitations like mani, dolma and vajraguru mantras. After i complete 100 thousand recitations can i move on to next level. I used to do prostrations but had to discontinue as my parents got seriously ill. Now they are quite well and i want to continue my daily practices. I want to practice vajra satva along with the prostrations to clear my negative karma so that i would be reborn as a buddhist monk in next life. Thank you pastor answered: Dear Om, Thank you for your question. In order to progress on the path towards enlightenment, it is very important to have a guru. Since you are already practising the Nyingma/Kagyu lineages, you should find a qualified guru to guide you in the path of practice according to those lineages. I hope this helps. Thank you.
