(By Tsem Rinpoche) （译文请往下阅读） November 9, 2010 Turkey Swamp was a large park with huge lake around 3 hours bicycle ride from my childhood home in New Jersey. If you went by car it’s around 45 mins or more. One of my relatives took me there once and I loved it as a kid. I asked my childhood friend Marc Reed to bicycle there with me. He was very agreeable. He is a very outdoor type of person, strong, energetic and game to try any physical activity. So off Marc and I went…it was a real LONG bike ride and physically gruelling 2-3 hours&#...

A few months ago, one of my close student's father had a medical condition that was quite life threatening.

Kechara Soup Kitchen was first registered as an NGO in the year 2006. At that time, KSK really was running small scale, with only 20 packets of food distributed in the weekends.
A few students of mine gave me some letters and gifts that is very meaningful and sincere. I thought I'll put it up in my blog to share it with everyone, the beautiful and sincere gifts they offered.
Dato Ruby Khong have been one of my closest students for almost 18 years now. She is a very strong woman, dedicated and kind... she never gives excuses, works very hard and always produces results because in everything she does, it is always for the Dharma.

Dear friends, Without discipline when growing up, as adults we give up easy. Find responsibility foreign. Take advantage of others and generally find it hard to bring plans to successful completion. A cheeky spoiled kid might seems cute at 9 but not at 19 or 29 or 39 or 49!! We all need...

Revisit this blog about Mount Wutai, is a sacred Buddhist site at in Shanxi Province. Surrounded by a cluster of flat-topped peaks believed to be the earthly abode of Manjushri, the bodhisattva of wisdom . It has been a focus of transnational pilgrimage for many pilgrims through-out the year.Its a place where everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime. With its five flat peaks, beautiful cultural landscape is home to many monasteries. Wutaishan holds a very special place in the more than 1,000 years of Buddhist and Chinese history, historical ancient architecture Monasteries. It’s a masterpiece where art, culture and spiritual come together. I have the opportunity to go pilgrimage this Sacred Wutaishan years ago.

Good day viewers, I wish to share my testimony with all of you. I have daily 9 to 5 jobs but while I work, I try my luck at playing instant Lotto. On this particular day, I decided to seek help online regarding tips for winning the lottery and I saw many individuals testifying about Meduza spells. I reached out to him and informed him that I needed help to win the lottery, and he clarified the process to me stating that after he casts the spell it will take 48 hours for him to provide me the winning numbers which I accepted. I followed all his instructions, and he provided me with the numbers to enter the Lottery. After the draw the following morning, I received a notification on the Lottery app on my phone indicating that I was the lucky winner of $273 million on the New Jersey Lottery and I’m here to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Meduza. If you seek for help in any aspect of your life, Whats_App +1 807 798-3042 or Email: lordmeduzatemple@hotmail.com or visit: https://lordmeduzatemple.com

The Eight Verses of Training the Mind is a revered text in Tibetan Buddhism. It was composed by the 11th-century master Geshe Langri Thangpa. Reading it over again and again,setting a reminder for myself. Its indeed very powerful teachings. In life there are tons of ups and downs, transformation is an inner self reworking of what we are now to what we will be. It’s about creating ourselves, what we think, we become. Great teachings .Thank you Rinpoche, these timeless verses provide a framework for cultivating profound compassion, inner peace, and unconditional acceptance.
Wow …….that’s awesome lists of books recommended for us to read helping us further our spiritual journey. All these books range from varies spiritual topics for those who want to learn ,and practising Dharma. Its worth reading indeed. I have only read Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand and Compassion Conquers All.
Thank you Rinpoche and Stella great sharing.
AI has caused me more problems than it has solved. I was connected to a cryptocurrency trader through AI and lost my hard-earned money to a scam. If it weren’t for the assistance of Lord Meduza, whom my sister-in-law recommended to me, I wouldn’t have been able to win the $435 MILLION Mega Millions Lottery.
My life could have taken a drastic turn due to the overwhelming bills I faced after being cheated by the crypto traders. Lord Meduza utilized his extraordinary spell powers to determine the perfect six numbers I needed to win the Mega Millions Lottery, and I followed his instructions to play those numbers. I am incredibly thankful for the support, love, and kindness he has shown, which is beyond measure.

In Buddhism, the Body of a Buddha refers not just to a physical form but to the manifestations of enlightenment. It is important to understand those marks on the Body of a Buddha as we practice further. Early Buddhism describes the physical body as having 32 major marks of perfection while the Mahayana tradition outlines three distinct bodies. Till now I am still trying to remember those body parts. Such a very information article for all.
Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing and explaining each parts.
The concepts of the cycle of birth and death, samsara and liberation partly derive from ascetic traditions. The significance of rebirth varies by tradition and practice. To achieve a better reincarnation in the next life all depends on our accumulating present good karma and acquiring merits. One’s actions in a present life shape the circumstances and consciousness of the next. Doing more positive action in the present life shape the circumstances and consciousness of the next . Learning, practicing Dharma and putting into positive action is the best choice for everyone to have a good rebirth. Great reading article from Dr. Berzin which will benefit our thoughts and dharma practice.
Thank you Rinpoche for sharing.
Reincarnation is the religious concept that the soul or consciousness of a living being begins a new lifespan in a different physical body after biological death. It is a central belief in many traditions, such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. While there is no scientific proof of reincarnation, many spiritual and cultural traditions suggest that signs of past lives can appear in our daily life.
After watching and reading many reincarnation stories I do believe. there are many reincarnated lamas, famous people out there. As in this blog very interesting videos to watch supporting that reincarnation do happened.
Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.
Hi, wishing good fortune to everyone who comes across this comment! I went bankrupt last year due to failed business ideas. I used to enjoy playing the lottery for fun but as my situation worsened financially, I sought help to win big this time and found a man called MEDUZA, who has assisted numerous individuals worldwide with their financial issues. This man prepared a powerful spell for me that enabled him to get the secrete lucky numbers for me, I played the game with the numbers and to my astonishment, I discovered that I had won $259 million Jackpot after 2 weeks just has he said; Today, I’m now free of debt and I own different investments globally. Without Meduza, I wouldn’t have made it through the tough times I experienced last year. Truly, MEDUZA is a divine presence among us. If you are currently struggling in aspect of your life, reach out to MEDUZA through the below information’s

A profound teachings , well explained the importance of going pilgrimage . Going on a pilgrimage is a life time opportunity with profound spiritual significance to achieve self-discovery of one self. Some research has shown that people who engage in pilgrimage walks , benefited them which has religious or spiritual significance. It offers one the opportunity to disconnect from our daily routines and distractions, finding a sense of community and belonging. We also gain clarity and direction in our lives , inspired and renewed, and deepen our spiritual practices and beliefs. It holds deep importance across global faiths and secular traditions. All I can say its a journey to a holy place, which can lead to a personal transformation.
Thank you Rinpoche great sharing.
Simple words and easy to understand reading those beautiful inspiration creation chart . Yes it definitely benefits everyone reading it. Great job Pastor Seng Piow helping up making it possible for readers. Religious freedom is the fundamental of human rights, protecting each rather individual’s right to believe and worship. Religion without humanity is a waste.
Thank you.
In Tibetan Buddhism Nageshvaraja and Loma Gyoma are two revered deities known for their roles in spiritual purification and deep healing. We are so fortunate having invited these Holy Statues to Kechara Forest Retreat. Awesome just by reciting the Mantra of Naga’s King Buddha who is one of the 35 Buddhas of Confession, one could purifies thousands of eons of one’s negative karma. When I visited Kechara Forest Retreat I will always take the opportunity to pay homage and circumambulate the holy statue of Buddha Nageshvaraja. Lhamo Loma Gyonma is one of the most efficacious healing deities. Lhamo Loma Gyonma’s tremendous ability known to be able to cure the most severe wide-spread contagious diseases . Awesome having these two powerful statues at Kechara Forest Retreat for everyone to pay homage. Going through those beautiful pictures again simply paints a thousand words.
Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands.
Looking at those beautiful pictures of fish pond at Kechara Forest Retreat is awesome. With stunning Manjushri statue in the middle blessing those who circumambulate around it so as those fishes in the pond. All thanks to our Guru coming out with this awesome idea having a pond garden.
Thank you Rinpoche sharing with us his personal 16 inch ‘Dream’ Manjushri. Merely by looking at it is a blessing . Very fortunate to see it.
