Don’t Abandon Senior Pets!

Jan 17, 2017 | Views: 1,133

Dear friends around the world,

Having a pet is like having a child. It is our responsibility to take good care of them especially in their old age. We should not abandon them just because they are old and have become “useless” or something of a nuisance and burden. Pets should never be an object of companionship which we throw out once they are not in good condition.

If you visit dog shelters, you will notice that most of the dogs who live there are senior dogs who were abandoned due to old age and poor physical condition. This is extremely wrong and is no way of treating a fellow sentient being. It is equivalent to abandoning your child when he becomes too ill. No one should follow this inhumane trend and cause more sufferings for animals.

I hope you find this article useful. Please share it and let people know that we must never hurt animals.

Tsem Rinpoche

 


 

Simple Ways You Can Help Make Life Easier and More Comfortable for Your Senior Dog

There’s something special about senior pets. Maybe it’s their graying faces and wise, soulful eyes that have a story to tell — or the random moments of playfulness where they act like a puppy or kitten again. Whether they’ve been with you their entire lives or are a recent addition to your family, the incredible bond we form with them is just as strong. And while it can be hard to watch our pets age and begin to struggle, it’s a time in their life where they need us most.

As with pets of all ages, caring for senior pets takes time and patience. They still need exercise to keep them physically and mentally healthy, and providing toys or treat puzzles can help prevent boredom and keep them mentally stimulated. Senior pets also require more frequent veterinary care, so it’s important to always keep your vet updated on your pet’s condition. If you notice changes in your pet’s behavior, eating habits, or bathroom habits, it could be an indicator that something is wrong. In addition to proper veterinary care, there are things we can do at home to make sure our senior pets stay healthy, comfortable and happy.
 

1. A Comfortable Bed

All pets deserve to have a nice, comfy bed but it becomes even more important as pets age —especially since conditions like arthritis can be aggravated by lying on hard surfaces. Help them rest their achy joints by providing a soft bed with an orthopedic insert. If your pet is still a chewer, you can purchase a raised, cot-style bed that provides support. If you choose a fabric bed, make sure it has a removable, washable cover for easy cleanup. Waterproof liners add an additional level of protection if your pet has issues with incontinence. Check out this list of eco-friendly options that help pets and the planet.
 

2. Pet Stairs and Ramps

Accessing furniture or getting in and out of vehicles can become more difficult (and painful) as a pet ages. You can ease joint strain and help prevent injury by investing in pet stairs or a ramp. Make sure they have a surface that provides sufficient traction, and it’s always best to measure your furniture or vehicle to make sure you’re purchasing a product that’s the correct height. You can find great deals on pet stairs and ramps online, or get super crafty and build your own.
 

3. Pet Socks or Booties

If you have a lot of non-carpeted surfaces in your home, you might want to consider pet socks or booties for your furry friend. More than a fashion statement, these socks and booties have an anti-slip bottom that helps pets keep their traction on non-carpeted surfaces. Measure the length and width of your pet’s paws first to make sure you purchase the correct size.
 

4. Jackets or Sweaters

A soft, comfortable jacket or sweater helps older pets retain body heat while outside on chilly days. They also help keep joints warm, which can ease pain and stiffness. Sweaters and jackets should be made of soft material and made so they don’t restrict a pet’s movement. It’s also important to remember that not all pets like wearing clothes. If your pet looks uncomfortable or stressed after you put them in clothing, it’s best to remove it and consider an alternative option like using a self-warming mat or bed.
 

5. Elevated Feeding Dishes

A raised pet dish can make feeding time more comfortable, especially for larger, taller pets. You can purchase raised stands, make your own or use items you have around the home — unused boxes, short stools or crates — to help raise their dishes to a comfortable level.
 

6. Potty Training Pads

Our feline friends have the benefit of litterbox access, but it’s a different story for dogs. As pets age, their need to eliminate can increase. If your pet needs to go out several times during the night or is left home for an extended period during the day, you can help prevent accidents by training them to use potty pads. Reusable, washable pads are a great alternative to the disposable option. They might cost a bit more upfront, but you’ll be doing the planet a favor by eliminating the amount of plastic and trash going into landfills.
 

Adopting a Senior Pet


Older pets are typically surrendered to shelters due to age, medical issues or because their caregiver has passed away. Being taken away from the only family they’ve known can leave them sad, confused, and wondering why their family has left them behind. Senior pets have just as much love to give as younger pets, but they often have a more difficult time finding homes. You can help by choosing to adopt a senior pet or providing a foster home where they can live out their final days in comfort and surrounded by love.

    Animals show love for humans! Cow, lions, apes, dogs, bears, parrots and more can all be very affectionate and show surprising emotions when it comes to expressing their love for people. An emotional animals hugging humans video.

    The few minutes a day we spend on social media creating awareness for animals who cannot speak is purely spiritual and humanistic practice because we are trying to alleviate pain from another sentient beings and that makes us more spiritual, and that makes us more spiritual and more humane.

    Most of us know how to take care and love a pet when it is small and cute, but as they get old and their health starts to fail most people will abandon them. Most of those old abandoned dogs can’t survive in the outside world as they are used to having people feed them so sooner or later they will die.
    We should take care of our pets as we would our own family members after all we are the ones who took up the responsibility of buying the pet.

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this helpful post.

  5. Kb Thapa on Feb 18, 2017 at 11:24 pm

    At frist, I would like to thank Rinpoche for this beautiful article. Now days very few people talks bout these topic. These older pets have given their love and devotion to their owners in their young time. It is important for us know they need affection and attention, love and care more then ever, just like human. It may not be as much fun to look after an older dog and it may seem more enjoyable to take cute Facebook pictures of a puppy, but I feel there is value to age and time he has spent with us. I have been learning a lot how Rinpoche taking care his own senior dog in ladrang and giving him as comfortable life as can. I can see how mumu loves the attention and love from us, looks soo happy and calm always…

  6. Wah Ying on Jan 29, 2017 at 12:00 am

    I find this article very useful. I never have a pet before I join Kechara, ahat I know about pets is limited as well, but I have learned many things about animals, especially dog, birds, fish and other wild animals when Rinpoche shares knowledge and observation about them. Recently I make a wooden house for my dog for him to sleep more comfortablely. I never think of senior animals would be like himan having problem of getting food, after reading this article I think an elevated food dish would be a good idea to have wheny dog getting older. Thanks for caring and sharing Rinpoche.

    • wan wai meng on Feb 16, 2017 at 2:01 am

      So cool of you to make a dog house, do you have the instructions on how to make it? Like the idea of an elevated food dish too.

  7. Lum Kok Luen on Jan 26, 2017 at 10:59 am

    Dear Rinpoche,

    Thank you for this teaching. The critical point is that senior pets should be treated with equanimity as a sentient being, just like humans. Just because they cannot talk to us or communicate, doesn’t mean that they deserve to be treated with lesser love and care compared to a fellow human.

    At present, we do not have pets in our home and perhaps will have (adopt) one later on. However, observing how others treat their aging pets, I can say that in general people tend to abandon senior pets, although there are many who would surrender to another party to take care of the senior pet. However, like you have mentioned below, it creates stress and the pet(s) may not understand why there is another person to take care of them, when they have been with us for a long time.

    Thank you Rinpoche,
    With folded hands,
    Lum Kok Luen

    These are great tips regarding how to care for your aged dog. It is also a good reminder to us about ourselves for if we cannot be responsible for our aged pet(s), how are we treating our children, our parents?

  9. Alice Tay on Jan 24, 2017 at 10:54 pm

    It is true that we have to take more time and patience when taking care for senior pets. However, if we don’t treat them kind, there is no one will do and take care them. In this life, we see the pets are in animal’s form. But they might be reincarnated as human form in future life and have faith in dharma if we treat the pet as our beloved family members and do dedication to them by doing any virtuous deeds.

    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing which reminds us to be kind to all the animals no matter it is young or old.

  10. TekLee on Jan 23, 2017 at 1:48 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this article on how to take care of senior pet. Yes, animals are sentient beings. Very much like human, they have all the feelings as human. Thus, no matter how old they are, we should treat them well. Since we’ve accepted them in our family the moment we adopt or bought them from pet shop, they are part of our family. Thus, we should treat them like our family members. They are many people who put their old pet into sleep when they can’t bare the pain seeing them suffer from their illness. But, we don’t put our family members into sleep when they are old age and suffer from illness. That is so wrong. We spread dharma to friends and family, letting them understand karma, compassion, and all the living beings have feelings too. Hope that more and more people understand this and will not simply put their old pet into sleep when they come to this. Thank you Rinpoche. _/\_

  11. Lew on Jan 22, 2017 at 8:49 pm

    Thank you Rinpoche for always showing us ways to cultivate the compassionate mind. I have seen many cases where people give their dogs away because they can’t keep the dogs for various reasons such as moving to a new condo which do not allow for big dogs; or need to work outstation/overseas for long term. I think many of us do not really put priority to the dogs when we make decisions, which I think we should change this attitude.

  12. Jace Chong on Jan 22, 2017 at 7:03 pm

    Thanks Rinpoche and the blog team for sharing this useful information.

    Just like we shouldn’t abandon our aging parents, we shouldn’t abandon our senior pets too. I think every pets would think we are part of their family and they will do their best to service us, and so do us. The tips here are heartwarming and these are things we can treat our senior pets well by giving more convenience to them.

    I have some dogs now, most of them are young now. It’s my promise to them to take care of them until the end of my life because I love them so much.

    Thank you.

    For me, I can’t imagine how to even abandon or abuse our little dog. She’s part of our family and has brought us so much joy. She totally depends on us for everything and we feel a sense of responsibility to provide for her. We love her so much and dread the day when we would have to say goodbye. Old age, sickness and death is a natural process and no one can escape it. It would be devastating for us, especially the kids when that eventuality comes.

    When people abandon their pets, it is due to selfishness. They take it as a burden and it becomes increasingly so as the pet grows older. So they discard the pet as they would an old toy. They might even get a new cute and cuddly one only to do the same thing when the time comes again. After all, there are convenient shelters where they can drop off their no-longer wanted pets and pass the burden to others.

    In Buddhism, we learn that all sentient beings are equal. Yes, we must not treat animals any lesser than we would another human being. Would you discard your mother when she gets old and useless? Sadly some people do that too.

  14. Jutika Lam on Jan 20, 2017 at 11:39 pm

    Like what Rinpoche has said above, I agree that having a pet is like having a child. Just like raising a child, we should not abandon or neglect our pets when they become old and are no longer as cute and playful as they once were. Instead, it should give us all the more reason to be more aware and to be more attentive towards the needs of our aging pets. Extra steps such as getting a more comfortable bed and sweaters or jackets for our beloved pet is just a few ways to keep our aging pet comfortable.

    I previously read a very true saying that though our pets may only be part of our lives, but to them we are their whole lives. This is all the more important to ensure that we care for them for as long as they live.

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing.

  15. Lin Mun on Jan 19, 2017 at 9:50 pm

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this article. Each points is so detailed and shows how much observation and love Rinpoche has towards animals.

    We should take care of our pets no matter how young or old they are. They are living beings and deserved to be loved and be taken care of.

  16. Samfoonheei on Jan 19, 2017 at 7:46 pm

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this useful and informative article about taking care of senior pets.We got to take care and love them more when our pet are senior that is where they need us more too.Its good to know those simple ways we can help make life more comfortable for our senior dogs.No one should cause more sufferings for animals especially they are senior.Whatever happen to them as a pet owner we are responsible for our action, Never hurt and abandon them.

  17. Pastor Lim Han Nee on Jan 18, 2017 at 12:36 pm

    Senior pets deserve our love and extra attention. Like the elderly among humans, they are beginning to be feeble and frail, slow in their movements. My elderly cat, for instance, being a stray adopted at the age of six months or more ,came with a slew of mouth and gum problems and now can only take mainly soft food. He needs special care when he is feeding. He is very slow now in movement.

    Yes, these senior pets have given their love and devotion to their owners in their younger days and should now be taken care of and not discarded and dumped at a pet shop or home. They are still loving and their slowness should not be taken against them.

    The pointers, given here on how to care for them mindfully ,are very helpful for those with senior pets.

    Thank you Rinpoche for this blogpost, which looks sensitively at the situation confronting elderly senior pets.

  18. Vivian Ong on Jan 18, 2017 at 10:58 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this article on how to take care of the senior pets. Although I myself do not have a pet, I feel that all pets no matter they are still young or old still need the love and care from their owners. We should not abandon them just because they are old and not as active as before.

    With folded palms,

    A good article for all the dog owner to read…
    Yup agreed age dog need more care ..

    Thanks for the sharing

  20. Uncle Eddie on Jan 17, 2017 at 3:26 pm

    For any animal which anyone wish to keep as pet, yes, you are their only hope, love, family and life. Just like any living being, including humans, when young they are cute, cuddleable and adorable, and that’s what make them lovable, and proud to have amongst your family members. Yes as said, with the experiences they have encountered, caring for pets takes time, energy, patience and love too, so as to keep them adorably healthy! But as they aged and become senior pets, more attention and time are required to keep them constantly healthy, as well as free from all animal contagious diseases. So a dog, cat, bird or any animal, brought home for keeps is not a pet. To them you are their family, love, hope, safety and life! As His Holiness, The Dalai Lama has once said, “We as rational human beings have an obligation to contribute in whatever way we can to the happiness of animals and their respective rights.” Om Mani Padmi Hung.

  21. Fong on Jan 17, 2017 at 3:04 pm

    Thanks for the tips on how to care for senior pets. But, here in Malaysia, the weather is so hot, the dogs don’t need sweaters but rather they need air-conditioning to keep cool. And, in the case of one of my dogs who’s afraid of rain and thunder and lightning, proper kennel or a pet door would come in really handy.

    Well, different pets have different requirements. Bottom line is that we do have to observe and pay attention to our senior pets as when we observe, we will be able to assess their need in our homes. With the right equipment, they will be comfortable and it will be easier to care for them.

    Nothing beats attention and love for our pets, be they senior or otherwise.

  22. Stella Cheang on Jan 17, 2017 at 1:06 pm

    We are the only family to the senior pets, how cruel it is to abandon them when they are old and helpless. It is a time our pet needs us most because they are in pain or suffering from discomfort, and we should be more sensitive to their needs. Very heartwarming to read a list of ideas to shower the raging pets with some tender loving care. Thank you Rinpoche.

    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

    Reading this post had me gain some knowledge of Shifter Werewolves. Any article regarding rare creatures or paranormal articles are of my interest since young. In European folklore, a werewolf is a man who turns into a wolf at night and devours animals, people, or corpses but returns to human form by day.They have the ability to transform from an ordinary human appearance to a partially-lupine form with pointed ears, mutton chops, claws and fangs, and a ridged brow . Wow… werewolf tends to be vicious and unable to control his blood thirst. Their underlying common origin can be traced back to Proto-Indo-European mythology. In many depictions, these bloodthirsty beasts are evil where they kill animals and innocent people. They are humans who transition into wolf-like creatures, after being placed under a curse. In folklore, most werewolves originate from being cursed or bitten by another werewolf. That’s what they do believe. According many enthusiasts, there’s many different type of werewolves such as Alpha wolves, Beta wolves , Deltas, Elders, some survive as loners while others move in packs. How true it is no one knows. I do believe their existing . Many interesting stories related to these wolves in the past history.

    Beautiful Dorje Shugden at Malacca. One should pay a visit there, located at a busy tourist place. It was such an auspicious occasion that a grand Puja was held there. Dedicated students and volunteers were there getting the place ready for the grand puja. Well the Grand Dorje Shugden puja was conducted by very own Kechara puja team to commemorate the chapel’s 3rd anniversary. Many people attended the Puja that’s wonderful to receive the powerful Protector Dorje Shugden blessings. More people will make a connection and get to know Manjushri, the Buddha of Wisdom, in the form of a Dharma Protector. May Dorje Shugden’s practice flourish to benefit those tourists and locals.

    Venerable Geshe Rabten Rinpoche is a highly realised meditation master known as a debater, scholar, and meditation master, was the first Tibetan Buddhist master to introduce the complete Vinaya-tradition. He had also introduce the study of the five major topics of Buddhism to the West. He became the ‘path breaker’ of the complete and complex teachings of Buddhism in the West. Many masters, who are famous in the West today, were Geshe’s students. enerable Geshe Rabten. Geshe Rabten wrote the beautiful and Manjushri’s prayer called Gangloma and gave a profound explanation. We are so fortunate to learn about this Manjushri’s sacred prayer. May all be blessed by the practice of Lord Manjushri and Geshe Rabten’s explanation.

    The begging bowl or alms bowl is one of the simplest but most important objects in the daily lives of Theravada Buddhist monks. The alms bowl still stands as an emblem of how all Buddhas, as numerous as grains of sand in the Ganges, practiced to end their desire. All those who receive the alms bowl should focus their mind to act with self-control and self-respect. Almsgiving is a tradition of Theravada Buddhists, majority in Thailand, Cambodia, Myanmar, Sri Lanka and Laos. In those early days of Buddhism, monks would take their bowls and go out begging for food. As today in Thailand one could see monks woke up before dawn every morning and carried his bowl through the roads or paths wherever he was staying. Local people would place food in the bowl as a donation, through the generosity of lay people. They accept whatever food is offered for them and eat whatever been given, serve as a blessing for the giver.
    One bowl has held the food of a thousand families. A solitary monastic travels on his journey of a hundred thousand miles seeking liberation from the cycle of birth and death.
    Thank you H.E. Tsem Rinpoche for explaining the meaning of begging and gave us more reasons to be vegetarian . Create a awareness among us not killing animals to be one.

He did surprised many and his choice was unexpected. Initially as a temporary measure, but somehow later evolved into a permanent way of life. Ven. Ajahn Siripanyo is now the Abbot of hermitage Dtao Dam on the Thai-Burmese border in Saiyok National Park, Thailand.

    The Tibetan diaspora began in 1959 after the People’s Liberation Army entered the country. Thousands of Tibetan and the Dalai Lama fled into exile to India. The Indian government led by Jawaharlal Nehru kind enough to offer land which was scattered throughout the country. The Tibetans as refugees on which the Tibetans would be able to reestablish themselves. After 60 years of protests, campaigns and fundraising, the Tibetan movement has not been fruitful, increase the living welfare condition and Tibetans continue to depend on the kindness of their host countries. Due to these many Tibetan in exile left India to elsewhere and other countries seeking a better future. In the last 60 years, the Tibetan leadership have not been successful in making progress with their political goals. Surprisingly the Tibetan Spiritual leader Dalai Lama said in an interview published letter that Europe has accepted “too many” refugees . While there is many protests and attempts to pressure Europe to accept more refugees.
    Further more the unethical ban against Shugden making life more difficult for many Dorje Shugden practitioners . Because of the ban against Dorje Shugden the whole Tibetan Buddhist world is divided until now. May all be harmonious soon even recently .Dalai Lama had said we could practice Interesting read.

    The Kalmyks are the only traditionally Buddhist people living within Europe. As Tibetan Buddhists, the Kalmyks regard the Dalai Lama as their spiritual leader. Kalmykia is a historical crossroads on the Silk Road. The Western Mongol Kalmyk tribes. The Kalmyks live primarily in the Republic of Kalmykia, a federal subject of Russia located in the southeast European part of Russia. The Kalmyks are the only inhabitants of Europe whose national religion is Buddhism. They embraced Buddhism in the early part of the 17th century and belong to the Tibetan Buddhist. Like other Mongols, the Kalmyk are very spiritual Tibetan Buddhists, but their Buddhism has a strong admixture of indigenous beliefs and shamanistic practices. Buddhism spread among Mongols during the time of the Mongol Empire. They have come a long way till now, with rich traditions in song, dance, music, arts and a powerful heritage ,strong convictions.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting information of the hidden Kalmykia society.

    Thaipusam is a Tamil Hindu festival celebrated on the first full moon day of the Tamil month. The festival is celebrated to commemorate the victory of Hindu God Murugan over the demon Surapadman. The festival commemorates the triumph of good over evil by many devotees throughout Malaysia. For Hindus, Thaipusam is a day to cleanse oneself of sins and to repent for any transgressions in the past year.Devotees place a great deal of emphasis on the Vel. Silver, gold, lead, copper, and iron which is the five metals. It is said to be able to absorb all negative energy, spread positivity, and destroy all dangerous energies. Wearing yellow during Thaipusam as Lord Murugan’s favourite colour. Well Yellow is also associated with new beginnings, peace and happiness. On that day many devotees will be wearing yellow in color. Devotees will carry heavy ornate structures called kavadis while others have their tongues, cheeks and backs pierced with hooks and skewers. They then walk barefoot up 272 steps to the Batu Caves temple. Women devotees will carry the milk pots on that day. Thousands of locals and tourist from around the world of different faith will be there to witness this auspicious festival.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Dorje Shugden controversy began when the Dalai Lama made successive attempts to wrongly assert the nature of the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden to be a harmful spirit. The great lineage masters such as Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche and Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche’s teachings are amongst the greatest dharma that forms the foundation of Gelugpa education. As confirmed that Dorje Shugden is an emanation of Manjushri. Dorje Shugden is an enlightened Dharma Protector who manifested about 400 years ago from a lineage of erudite masters. They cant be wrong . Dorje Shugden via the Panglung oracle had helped the Dalai Lama in his great escape out of Tibet. There are so many highly attained lamas who practices Dorje Shugden and their reincarnations have been coming back again and again. Even 5th Dalai Lama composed a prayer to Dorje Shugden and built a Protector chapel dedicated to Dorje Shugden as well. That’s Trode Khangsar in Central Lhasa which is still there. The ban of Dorje Shugden is unnecessary and illogical as the bigger purpose of Dorje Shugden,is the preservation of the Dharma. The Tibetan Leadership (CTA) has instituted this ban against Dorje Shugden for many years and its time to lift the ban. May more people read and understand the ban and the real reason behind this controversy.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Pastor David for sharing this post.

    Troll is a being in Nordic folklore, described as trolls dwell in isolated areas of rocks, mountains, or caves, live together in small family units, and are rarely helpful to human beings. Trolling behaviors involve tactical aggression to incite emotional responses, which can adversely affect the target’s well-being. Troll represented aspects of life and nature that were beyond human control or understanding. They can be found all over Norway with mysterious rock formations and mountains with troll-like-shapes , sometimes possessing magic powers too. Reading this post had me get to know there’s other forest creatures that existed long ago. An eye opener reading it .

    Dice divination, a fascinating and ancient method of fortune-telling, has been used by various cultures throughout history. Dice hold different meanings and symbolism in various religious traditions, representing chance, fate, and the connection between humans and the divine. Dice are commonly used as divination tools in modern witchcraft and are interpreted to seek insight and guidance from higher powers. Despite all the different rules and approaches, all forms of dice divination are basically the more same.
    In Tibetan Buddhism there are a number of divination methods. Even within dice divination there are many forms, and these are associated with many different deities such as Manjushri, Palden Lhamo and Dorje Shugden. Dorje Shugden divination method is well known to be extremely accurate , very beneficial and effective.
    Our Guru H E Tsem Rinpoche had received the entire transmission and commentary of the Dorje Shugden divination lineage from Dorje Shugden himself. One should maintain very good guru devotion and have clean samaya with our guru with ,have respect for the Dharma and have the deepest faith in the great and powerful enlightened protector Dorje Shugden to do the divination.Tsem Rinpoche has helped thousands of people through his divination methods in Malaysia. Interesting read , more to understand about it.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing with us .

    Visualizing deities while meditating or when we are performing a puja is one of the principal methods used in the Tibetan tradition. Deities are highly symbolic representations of awakened minds that have appeared to past masters in visions. Deities are represented in thangkas and paintings. As more and more people embrace the Tibetan Buddhist path with sincerity and dedication, they understand better and could visualize through the practice. It is not about appeasing a deity, but engaging in formal meditational practices to transform ourselves. The actual practice in Buddhism is to purify karma, accumulate merits by way of Buddha-deity practice, and to create the causes and conditions for spiritual realisations.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Pastor David for these great teachings.

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.
    7 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
