H.E. Tsem Rinpoche’s 48th Birthday

(Written by Admin)

Every 24th October, Kecharians and our friends have the merit to celebrate our beloved Guru H.E. Tsem Rinpoche’s birthday. 48 years ago, Rinpoche was born in Taiwan to a Tibetan father and a Mongolian princess mother (you can read more about Rinpoche’s biography here or in this book!). After much hardship and the many challenges Rinpoche has undertaken to bring Dharma to Malaysia and the rest of the world, this year we had the privilege of celebrating Rinpoche’s birthday in a peaceful environment of our very own retreat land, Kechara Forest Retreat (KFR).

A Guru’s birthday is not quite like any other. It is the day that our Guru chose to be reborn into our realm, in order to turn the wheel of Dharma for all sentient beings. For those who view their teachers as an enlightened Being, and who view their teacher’s actions as that of an enlightened Being’s, it means the teacher’s birthday is one of the most important days for them. For them, the Guru’s birthday is viewed as an opportunity to accumulate immeasurable merits for their teacher’s long life, for their own practice and for the success of their organisation’s endeavours.

Rinpoche’s birthday celebration started at 10 am, when many of Rinpoche’s students gathered in front of Wisdom Hall’s iconic outdoor Lama Tsongkhapa statue to participate in the animal liberation activity. Under the guidance of Pastor Adeline, Rinpoche’s students recited the Medicine Buddha mantra for over 45 minutes to bless the 350 birds before setting them free.

KFR for the remainder of the day was a bustling hive of activity because this year, we had many more reasons to celebrate 24th October. Not only was the day a joyous occasion for Rinpoche’s students, but it was also particularly special for one of Rinpoche’s long time students and friend, Datuk Eric Tan. Having just been awarded the title of Datuk Wira earlier in the day, Datuk Wira Eric also celebrated the expansion of his family by witnessing the wedding blessing of his eldest son, Edwin Tan.

It was the first such blessing to take place on our holy land. The bride and groom recited prayers to Tara, requesting her blessings for their union. Holding hands under the gaze of Shakyamuni, they then recited specially prepared wedding vows to one another, promising, “I will be faithful to you. I will support you in all difficulties. I will improve my weak points for you. I will defend you. I will respect your beliefs. I will share what I have with you. I make this promise to you.

As the wedding took place in Wisdom Hall, guests for Rinpoche’s birthday took the opportunity to tour KFR. Nearly 500 students attended Rinpoche’s birthday, many of them visiting KFR for the first time. Our newly ordained pastors were kept busy as they guided the visitors around our retreat land, explaining Rinpoche’s vision for providing Malaysians with a place to retreat, relax and unwind from stressful city life. Needless to say, many of the guests were impressed by how much KFR has changed from the time we acquired the land last year.

After the tour, everyone made their way to Dukkar Apartments where dinner was served by Kechara Oasis. After a hearty vegetarian meal, guests adjourned to Wisdom Hall to participate in the Lama Chopa Puja. Led by Pastor Chia Song Peng and Pastor JJ Chong, Kecharians requested the blessings of our lineage lamas for our Guru’s long life. The prayers were also dedicated towards the accumulation of merits for us to receive Rinpoche’s Dharma teachings and to request for the success of Rinpoche’s activities.

It was a day like what Rinpoche has always worked for – an event held on our land, in our buildings, with pujas and blessings done by our local Malaysians, and catered for by our own vegetarian restaurant. It is this vision that is slowly coming to life in Kechara Forest Retreat, a place where Malaysians will be able to do something to help other Malaysians. Thus on behalf of all Kecharians, we wish Rinpoche a very happy birthday and offer our gratitude to Rinpoche for 48 years of benefiting sentient beings. May we have the merits for Rinpoche to remain long with us, for all of Rinpoche’s visions to materialise and for us to always be able to serve our lama.

    Its was such a wonderful and auspicious day to have seen kechara forest retreat filled with so many visitors and students coming together for the purpose of our Guru’s Birthday. It was fun and it felt like such positive energy filled the whole place where everyone was learning and praying together for our Guru’s Long Life. I had missed the releasing pf the birds but i’m glad to see so many people attended the ceremony and its a huge relief to see so many birds set free back into nature. I would like to thank Rinpoche for giving us kechara forest retreat, a place where everyone would be able to make wishes and pray together in harmony. Every day kechara forest retreat is growing and everyday more visitors are coming from all over the world. I hope Rinpoche is happy and feeling well.

    This is the 1st major event organised by Kechara in Kechara Forest Retreat, Chamang, Bentong to coincide with Tsem Rinpoche’s birthday. We had animal liberation, a wedding blessing ceremony, short tours of the Manjuhri Hill, Wisdom Hall and Dukkar apartments for first time guests who came from afar.

    The event was attended by 400 over guests and refreshments were prepared for them before the event. Hard working staff planned this event out meticulously to ensure safety, security and car parks were taken into consideration. In all, the event was a good one for everyone who took part. May Tsem Rinpoche have long life and good health to continue turning the wheel of dharma to benefit all. Happy Birthday!

  11. Wan Wai Meng on Nov 1, 2013 at 6:07 pm

    It is so great for us to celebrate Rinpoche’s birthday at KFR. Somehow I can’t help feeling that the people in Bentong are so fortunate to have KFR in their town 🙂 .

    24 October 2013 is a memorable and historical day for Kecharians and guests who attended Tsem Tulku Rinpoche’s birthday for the first time in Kechara Forest Retreat. Thanks to the combined effort and hardworking team for the preparation, the whole day joyous event turned out successfully.

    May all of Rinpoche’s wishes come true and may Kechara Forest Retreat continue to grow to benefit many more.

  15. Wei Theng on Oct 30, 2013 at 5:57 am

    Thank you Rinpoche for giving us a chance to celebrate your birthday at Kechara Forest Retreat.
    Looking back celebrating your birthday last year at Kechara House gompa at SumwayMas, I am very grateful that this year we can have it at Wisdom Hall at Kechara Forest Retreat. It’s Rinpoche’s hardwork, your vision to benefit others and keep pushing us to challenge our comfort zone that we can have the Wisdom Hall, Dukkar apartment, Manjushri Hill today.
    I pray that we can have it at the main Shakyamuni hall at Kechara Forest Retreat soon. May rinpoche live long, always turn the wheel of dharma, Rinpoche’s teaching can spread far and wide and benefit all sentient beings!

    That day was an eventful and very happening day in Kechara Forest Retreat, especially during dinner time in Dukkar Apartment it was full house, people had to stand to enjoy their delicious dinner prepared by Kechara Oasis. I was fortunate enough to participate in the crew team to oversee the whole event from behind the scene to the happenings of the whole celebration ran smoothly. It’s fun to work with everyone.

    Thank you Rinpoche and the team for making Kechara Forest Retreat possible.

  21. henry ooi on Oct 28, 2013 at 2:07 pm

    Yes,24th October 213 would remain a memorable day for Kecharians to remember with so many people at Kechara Forest Retreat to celebrate and participate in all events as mentioned herein. The organizing team worked hard and everything went smoothly with nary a mishap or bad incident. Smiles were on everyone’s faces during and after the events, it was a joyous occasion. And the weather was sunny and hot with a small shower in the early afternoon.

  22. AdelineTan on Oct 28, 2013 at 2:05 pm

    This is the first time we celebrated our Lama’s birthday in this holy land of Kechara Forest Retreat,about 500 Kecharians and guests attended this auspicious occasion. May our precious Guru H E Tsem Rinpoche have long life and stable health to turn the wheel of dharma and may all His wishes be fulfilled. Thanks to kecharians and the committed volunteers for making this event a success.

  23. Uncle Eddie on Oct 28, 2013 at 10:28 am

    This year we have had the privilege to celebrate Rinpoche’s birthday at “Kechara Forest Retreat Land”. Students started gathering at 10am in front of Wisdom Hall’s iconic outdoor Lama Tsongkhapa’s statue for Animals Liberation, and recitation of Medicine Buddha’s mantra to bless the release of 350 Birds under the guidance of Pastor Adeline. Activity for the day also included particular special occasion of the wedding’s blessing of Datuk Eric Tan’s son (Edwin Tan), representating the first blessing of such occasion to happen on Kechara’s holy land! The day was full of joy and satisfaction, with the vision that our Kechara’s dream is slowly and steadfastly materialising to reality to benefit all beings. May Rinpoche have a long and healthy life always to guide us through in benefitting all sentient beings! Om mani padme hung.

  24. Boon on Oct 27, 2013 at 7:42 pm

    Thanks for sharing this memorable event article with us! Thanks to all volunteer who made this event successfully to be carried out on last few days ago!may rinpoche able to live long. To turn the wheel of dharma!

  25. Girlie OOI on Oct 27, 2013 at 6:00 pm

    It was a hive of activities on the 24 October when Kecharians, friends and family members gathered at Kechara Forest Retreat (KFR).

    It was the first time we celebrated our Guru’s birthday there; first time we had an animal liberation day; and also the first time a wedding blessing was conducted there.

    So it turned out we were there to celebrate a day of many first’s.

  26. Pastor Han Nee on Oct 27, 2013 at 4:42 pm

    Kechara Forest Retreat burst into life in an explosion of activities to celebrate the 48th Birthday of Tsem Rinpoche, Spiritual Guide and founder of Kechara.

    The day started with the liberation of 350 birds. From then on in and around Wisdom hall and Dukkar Apartments were crowds of people walking back and forth. There was the wedding blessing ceremony of Dato Wira Eric Tan’s elder son, Edwin , and Elaine.

    In the afternoon, groups of people joined in a continuous series of tours of KFR. Many were visiting KFR for the first time.

    In the evening, 400 students joined in a long-life Lama Chopa puja for Rinpoche.

    May Kechara Forest Retreat continue to grow and develop into what has been envisioned for it by Rinpoche – a place of peace, healing,retreat and learning(especially spiritual retreat and learning) for all from around the world.

  27. Low Khjb on Oct 27, 2013 at 11:33 am

    It was an unforgettable experience to be able to be allowed to celebrate H.E.Tsem Rinpoche’s 48th Birthday at Kechara Forest Retreat.
    All the pastors,committee and volunteer did a fantastic job to make the event a success.A big”Thank you” to them.
    May we be able to celebrate our Rinpoche next Birthday at the KFR with the vision of our Rinpoche completed as intended.
    Wishing a Happy Birthday to Rinpoche,may he have a long life to turn the wheel of Dharma.

  28. Beatrix Ooi on Oct 27, 2013 at 1:05 am

    I was very fortunate to be able to attend and witness the celebration, Kecharians put in a lot of time and efforts to make the event a success. I’ve read about Pastor Jean Ai’s blog on why Rinpoche doesn’t like birthday celebrations, and I agree with that. I haven’t been celebrating my birthday for 2 years, I have to admit that I really do not like the feeling of people gathering around me and sing me happy birthday song. And I think it is a day where I can do more good deeds and dedicate to my parents cause they went through a lot of hard times when I was still in my mother’s stomach.

  29. Julien Roth on Oct 26, 2013 at 11:43 pm

    I am glad that RInpoche had an amazing Birthday, i wish i could have been there. I feel happy that Rinpoche would do so much on his birthday, when the rest of us would just be doing things on our own Rinpoche would be helping others. Thank you for sharing Rinpoche.

  30. Kelvin Yong on Oct 26, 2013 at 11:11 pm

    Wishing Rinpoche a long life and a steady health so that he could remain with us to continue spreading the dharma which benefits all sentient beings.

  31. Sean Wang on Oct 26, 2013 at 10:10 pm

    A happy belated Birthday to His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche! Hope Rinpoche will continually live on many more years to benefit many more people. Thank you to all the volunteers and staffs for arranging this wonderful and auspicious event.

    May Rinpoche have long life, great health and constant happiness.

  32. Lucas Roth on Oct 26, 2013 at 6:27 pm

    I hope Rinpoche had a amazing day. I hope Rinpoche lives a very long time to teach everybody the dharma. Rinpoche has always been there for us so I hope everybody and Rinpoche had an amazing time.

  33. guest on Oct 26, 2013 at 5:43 pm

    I wish You, H.E. Tsem Rinpoche to celebrate your birthday. It’s a gift to your students and friends. Gathering and enjoying acceptance of your parents to give a birth to you, blessing of meeting the dharma and blessing of living 48 years, helping many sentient beings. Although I’m not a lama or monk, I celebrated my birthday to get closer to people, to actually wish them well.
    People who’d celebrate birthday with you will accomplish many merits, as they’d just wish you long life, praising not your ego, but actions which help to cease suffering of all beings.

  34. Wylfred Ng on Oct 26, 2013 at 5:38 pm

    Thanks for the sharing. That day really is a memorable day for me as this is the first time i attended Rinpoche’s birthday celebration.

    I wish Rinpoche long life and turn the Dharma Wheel. So that many people will have chance to meet the dharma.

  35. Ck siah on Oct 26, 2013 at 5:31 pm

    谢谢克切拉行政部分享庆祝仁波切48岁诞辰的过程缤纷彩照。也谢谢所有为仁波切庆祝诞辰而忙的上上下下志工团队和弟子们。大家辛苦了,虽然我们知道一向来仁波切不喜欢弟子们为他庆祝诞辰, 但是为了尊敬和对上师的依止心, 我们还是要为仁波切庆祝诞辰。
    我们祈愿仁波切长驻在世常转法轮,弘扬佛法,利益众生。

    Dorje Shugden is a protector in Tibetan Buddhism, originally a minor protector in the Sakya school of Tibetan Buddhism. Later adopted by the Gelug school. Has been worshipped throughout history by several schools of Tibetan Buddhism. As a wrathful manifestation of Manjushri, the Wisdom Buddha, who grants wisdom, clarity, and concentration. A protector who fulfils wishes and prayers, brings material resources,healing, and protects from harm to those who sincerely rely on. Also helps us to clear obstacles, and attracts opportunities for success, growth and in many ways. Many practitioners have benefited ultimately for helping them stay on the spiritual path. Rely on Dorje Shugden consistently over times, we will see his graceful yet powerful assistance in our lives. The prayers is indeed very powerful and have me change my life.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this simplified daily prayer. Easy and convenient for everyone.

    The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge. Part of being successful is about asking questions and listening to the answers. Asking questions is the first way to begin change. Knowledge shared is knowledge squared. A great way to learn by reading and asking various enlightened aspects of Tsongkapa. I am still learning even I have revisit this blog on and off. Still trying to remember names of great lamas.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this post.

She have taken months and did researched and painted it beautifully. Looking at it is a blessing.

    Born in 1905 in the village of Nangsang in the Kham province of eastern Tibet HH Kyabje Zong Rinpoche was a master of philosophical debate. He was a powerful Tantric practitioner, well known throughout the three great Gelug monasteries of central Tibet. Wow in an early stage of his childhood he performed various magical miracles such as able to invoke a female naga goddess in a nearby lake. A master of sutra and tantra, H H Kyabje Zong Rinpoche had performed countless holy deeds and gave thousands of Dharma teachings during his lifetime. A biography of a great Master who possessed an extraordinary memory and was renowned for healing activities. Zong Rinpoche was the Guru of many great masters. Interesting read of all the miraculous stories of Kyabje Zong Rinpoche.

    All thanks to our Guru that we are given a chance to get connected to the Sublime Queen, Vajra Yogini and collect merits along the way. The idea of making real gold-paint offerings to Vajra Yogini in KFR is indeed awesome for everyone. In Buddhism, symbolic offerings are made to the Triple Gem, giving rise to contemplative gratitude and inspiration. Making offerings to the Buddhas are acts of generosity and therefore highly meritorious.
    Thank you Rinpoche with folded hands.

    ndia is a land of diverse cultures, traditions, and spiritual practices. They allow religious freedom among its most enigmatic and intriguing spiritual sects are the Aghoris, a group of ascetics who are often surrounded by mystery, fear, and fascination. But the Tibetan leadership creates religious differences leading to discrimination, violence, hatred and bias against Shugden practitioners. Everyone has their rights to choose and practice whatever they want. The ban of Dorje Shugden is therefore unnecessary and illogical . In recent years religious freedom has improves.
    Interesting blog of a sect of ascetic sadhus who practice a unique and extreme form of Hinduism. They are the only surviving sect of the Kapalika tradition, a Tantric form of Shaivism originated in Medieval India. The Aghoris are a fascinating and mysterious group of Hindu ascetics, who have a distinct and radical approach to spirituality. They are known for their bizarre and unconventional rituals. They live in cremation grounds, smearing ashes on their bodies, using human skulls as utensils, and eating flesh from human corpses. Aghoris are Hindu devotees of Shiva the god of destruction and transformation, and they seek to attain liberation from the endless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. They see themselves as healers, both of the body and the soul. Many believe that their intense penance and devotion give them extraordinary powers.They engage in practices that challenge conventional ideas of purity, such as meditating in cremation grounds, consuming what others deem inedible, and embracing what society often shuns.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting sharing.

    Saying thank you and showing our gratitude with a handwritten message can make all the difference in our life.At times, when our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has reason to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us. None of us who achieves success without the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge is this help with gratitude. Let us rise up and be thankful. Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.Its gratitude that helps us to grow and expand . And also gratitude brings joy and laughter into our life and into the lives of all those around us. Spiritually it unlocks the fullness of life and turning what we have into enough in life.

    Wangze is one of Dorje Shugden’s emanations and is the most powerful deity to propitiate in order to assist us when we are facing difficult situations with difficult people and positive influence on others. Wangze’s practice can cultivate energies of power, influence, and the ability to positively influence others. Practising this practice with knowledge and understanding we may gain a firm footing on the spiritual path bringing benefit to their lives.

    H H the Dalai Lama is considered as the incarnation of the Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara, therefore is a highly realized and attained being. Dalai Lama has been worshipping Dorje Shugden for decades, consulted his oracles, and even composed prayers for Dorje Shugden. Until 1966 suddenly, Dalai Lama imposed the ban on Dorje Shugden , saying Dorje Shugden is not good. Many incarnation have been returning again and again. Dorje Shugden’s practice does not send us to the three lower realms. Prayers composed by H.H the 14th Dalai Lama at Dungkar Monastery of Domo Geshe Rinpoche tells all and had proven it. Dalai Lama can not be wrong for some one who has the clairvoyance to see whether Dorje Shugden is good or evil. Even the 5th Dalai Lama composed prayers, and also made a statue of Dorje Shugden.
    Reading this over and over as it good to know and understand better. May more people get to read this truth.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Since those days in school , I have heard of these Bermuda Triangle. Will get exicted hearing interesting stories of the mysteries of these area. The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil’s Triangle, is a region between Florida, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico in the North Atlantic Ocean. Over the past several centuries, more than 50 ships and 20 planes have disappeared in the area. Recording to some researchers that a parallel universe exists in the Bermuda Triangle region, causing a time or space warp that sucks the objects around it into a parallel universe. Interesting. The Bermuda Triangle, known for its mysterious disappearances. In recent years there have been several incidents in the Bermuda Triangle that have captured media attention. Interesting,ships and airplanes that seemed to have disappeared without a trace which has earned it the name ‘Devil’s Triangle. Since then nothing extraordinary has happened in the last 60 years. Some had mentioned that there are large deep ocean craters on the sea floor of the Bermuda Triangle. Could it be possible no one knows but there’s also others theory as well. Scientists still cannot solved these mysteries disappearance, were there the existing of aliens or something else.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Cindy Hew 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.
    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
