   Dear friends,

   Tibet has produced many powerful meditations, rituals and guidelines to help us gain spiritual protection, gain wisdom and higher states of consciousness. In general Tibet has produced many powerful methods for the growth of our spiritual evolution. Dorje Shugden is an angel, a saint, a powerful spiritual protector-warrior who originated 350 years ago when a highly awakened Tibetan Lama fulfilled his vows to become a special being to grant protection, wisdom, material needs, safety when travelling (normal and astral travel) and spiritual awakening. Both the Great 5th Dalai Lama and the current His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama composed short yet effective prayers to invoke upon the power and blessings of this special saint and protector. One can recite either one of the prayers that you feel suits you, anytime or even daily. When you feel a special need for help, you can recite either prayer anytime. When you are feeling down, afraid or just need a blessing, you can recite them. After reciting either invocation, it is good to chant the mantra of Dorje Shugden: Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha.

   You do not have to be a Buddhist or practitioner of any religion to invoke upon the blessings and protection of this special enlightened and awakened angel Dorje Shugden. He helps all without discrimination or bias as he is filled with compassion and love. Divinity has no boundaries, they help all who call upon them.

   Enclosed are the prayers in English, Chinese and Tibetan.

   May you be safe, protected and blessed.

   Divination (‘mo’) Text by Dorje Shugden

   This is an important divination (‘mo’) text composed by Dorje Shugden himself. Dorje Shugden took trance of the Choyang Dulzin oracle lama, the senior oracle of Gaden Shartse Monastery, and instantly on the spot composed this text within two hours.

   The divination text contains information on how to use dice to do divination for the future and is known to be highly accurate. When practitioners use this text, they will be in direct contact with Dorje Shugden to get answers to questions about the future. It is for those who have good samaya with Dorje Shugden and are free of the eight worldly dharmas to be of benefit to others in divining the future.

   His Holiness the 10th Panchen Lama

   Tibetans commonly refer to His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama and His Holiness 10th Panchen Lama as the “sun and moon” of Tibetan Buddhism. They are the center of Tibetan Buddhist civilization, which draws to its sphere of influence millions of non-Tibetan practitioners. The Panchen Lama’s incarnation line began with the 16th abbot of Tashi Lhunpo Monastery, Lobsang Chokyi Gyeltsen (1570 – 1662). He was bestowed the title of Panchen Lama by His Holiness the 5th Dalai Lama after being declared as an emanation of Amitabha.

   After being given the title, his three previous incarnations were posthumously also bestowed the title, making Lobsang Chokyi Gyeltsen the 4th Panchen Lama. He became a teacher to many Tibetans, Bhutanese and Mongolian religious figures, including His Holiness the 4th and 5th Dalai Lamas, and the 1st Jetsun Dampa of Mongolia. A prolific author, Chokyi Gyeltsen is credited with over a hundred compositions, including a number of commentaries and ritual texts that remain central in the Gelukpa tradition today. Along with his role as a teacher of the Dharma, the Panchen Lamas are usually responsible for the recognition of the rebirths of the Dalai Lamas, and vice versa.

   The 10th Panchen Lama, Lobsang Trinley Lhundrub Chokyi Gyeltsen (19 February 1938 – 28 January 1989) continued both the spiritual and political roles of his predecessors. His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, his contemporary, was even heard to say and echo the Panchen Lama’s own words that the Dalai Lama would safeguard Tibet from the outside while the Panchen Lama would safeguard Tibet from the inside, as he never left Tibet after the political troubles of 1959. He was truly loved by the Tibetans, all the way until his passing. When he taught, thousands of people would attend, not only from his own Gelug lineage, but masters and practitioners from all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism.

   At his sprawling monastery of Tashi Lhunpo, he has a special chapel specifically dedicated to Dorje Shugden, where prayers and rituals are performed on a daily basis. In his great omniscience the Panchen Lama held Dorje Shugden as the principal Dharma protector of the monastery. He also personally propitiated Dorje Shugden among other Dharma protectors, and even wrote extensive prayers and rituals to Dorje Shugden. These rituals and prayers are contained within his ‘sung bum’ or collected works, which are provided here. As such a great lama, with an erudite and clear understanding of the Buddhist scriptures, a teacher to millions in both Tibet and China, from an established incarnation line and an emanation of the Buddha Amitabha, he could not be mistaken about his practice of Dorje Shugden.

   His Holiness 10th Panchen Lama is known for his composition of commentaries and practice texts that are still in use by contemporary Buddhist practitioners both in Tibet and across the world. One of these is a powerful ritual composition propitiating the compassionate Dorje Shugden.

   Upon the request by Acharya Lobsang Jangchub to compose a shorter version of the prayer (sadhana) for the exhortation of activities of Dorje Shugden, Panchen Lama immediately composed an abbreviate form of Dorje Shugden’s Kangsol. This text is entitled “Manjunatha’s (Tsongkapa) Lineage protector Dorje Shugden and five forms wrathful propitiations and confessional prayers and fulfilment of activities rites” or “Melodious sound of Accomplishment of the Four Activities” for short. Once the prayers were completed, he had signs and strong feelings that Dorje Shugden has been working hard to protect the Buddhadharma in general and the lineage of Lama Tsongkhapa specifically.

   Mirroring the abilities of one of his earlier incarnations, Khedrub Je, a disciple of Lama Tsongkhapa and master of both sutra and tantra, the Panchen Lama used his compositional skill and poetic prowess to create a masterful sadhana. Worthy of note is a praise in which the first letter of each verse is a Tibetan vowel. Such compositions are rarely seen, and have historically only been used when propitiating senior Dharma protectors such as Palden Lhamo and Kalarupa.

   The Panchen Lama also stated that while composing the Dorje Shugden sadhana (prayers) he was filled with a sense of happiness and bliss. He ends the composition with not only his official title but his ordination name, Tenzin Trinley Jigme Choje Wangchuk, endorsing the validity of his work. He composed the sadhana in his own Tashi Lhunpo monastery while in the Hall of Clear Light and Bliss.

   For the first time available, Dorje Shugden and his entourage of 32 assistants of his mandala.

   Dorje Shugden is a powerful protector deity who is also an emanation of Manjushri, a wisdom bestowing Buddha. Therefore, he has great ability to help us to progress further on the spiritual path. He does this by helping us to overcome obstacles and problems for the modern individual.

   Due to his enlightened nature, Dorje Shugden is able to manifest 32 deities and within the same abode resides Setrap and Kache Marpo:-

   1. 5 Dorje Shugden families or emanations. They consists of the following:-

   – Dulzin Dorje Shugden, which performs activities to eliminate inner and outer obstacles.
   – Shize, which performs activities to pacify all illnesses and disease.
   – Gyenze, which performs activities to increase all desirable material and spiritual wealth.
   – Wangze, which performs activities to control difficult people and circumstances.
   – Trakze, which performs activities to wrathfully eliminate all insurmountable obstacles and life-threatening situations.

   2. 9 Mothers. They represent protection of the five senses and developing control of the four elements. These are all attributes that signify their ability to assist tantric practitioners with their higher meditations.

   3. 8 Guiding Monks. They represent the Eight Great Bodhisattvas (Avalokiteshvara, Manjushri, Vajrapani, Samantabhadra, Maitreya, Kshitigarbha, Akashagarbha, Sarva-nivarana-viskambini) and they bring about the growth of the Dharma, through the Sangha, Dharma practitioners and Dharma establishments.

   4. 10 Youthful & Wrathful Attendants. They represent the ten wrathful attendants to avert inner and outer obstacles. They are beings who are from Mongolia, China, Kashmir, India, Bengali, etc.

   5. Setrap. He is a senior Dharma Protector from India and an emanation of Amitabha Buddha. He had enthroned Dorje Shugden as an authentic Dharma Protector. Therefore, he also resides within the same mandala of Dorje Shugden.

   6. Kache Marpo. He is not an emanation of Dorje Shugden but he is still an enlightened Dharma Protector in his own right. He was originally known as Tsiu Marpo of Samye Monastery. However, he has placed himself under the service of Dorje Shugden as his chief minister, performing many activities in order to protect and benefit practitioners. Therefore, he stands guard at the main entrance of Dorje Shugden’s mandala. He often takes trance of qualified mediums to speak.

   7. Namkar Barzin. He is the reincarnation of an old Mongolian monk and when he passed away in Phari area of Tibet, his spirit was placed as a powerful assistant of Dorje Shugden. He guards and protects buildings and great institutions especially those that benefit others. He rides on a mythical Gyaling animal that resembles a goat but with scales.

   These sacred images are available on *Vajrasecrets. They are made of high quality alloy and are one of a kind. They are based on the lineage of His Holiness Panchen Rinpoche’s monastery, Tashilhunpo in Shigatse, Tibet. In fact, the iconography of these statues are based on detailed photographs taken by H. E. Tsem Rinpoche during a trip to Tashilhunpo’s protector chapel. These are based exactly as the 10th Panchen Lama’s personal collection.

    This is a powerful picture of Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen, Kensur Kyabje Lati Rinpoche and the current incarnation of Trijang Rinpoche meeting together in the year 2000 when Trijang Rinpoche was 18. All three lamas are Dorje Shugden practitioners. In fact Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen was the one that first encouraged my practice of Dorje Shugden when I was 16 years old when I joined his beautiful Thubten Dhargye Ling centre in Los Angeles. I lived with Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen for 8 years before proceeding to Gaden Monastery in South India. Later Kyabje Zong Rinpoche came to our Los Angeles centre and granted sogtae (permission ceremony) to practice Dorje Shugden for life as requested by Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen. Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen had tremendous faith in Trijang Rinpoche. Kyabje Lati Rinpoche was innovative, dedicated and very much focused on bringing dharma to many. He had tremendous faith in Dorje Shugden as I had the honour to meet him many times. He would seek advice from Dorje Shugden many times via the oracle of Gaden Monastery. Geshe Tsultrim Gyeltsen and Kensur Kyabje Lati Rinpoche have since passed away while the current Trijang Rinpoche is a perfect lineage holder and practitioner of Dharma while he keeps Dorje Shugden as his personal protector as he has done so for many lifetimes. This is a powerful and beautiful picture of three great lamas of Buddha’s lineage and also of Gaden Monastery.

    We are indeed exceptionally fortunate to be able to witness the following in Wisdom Hall, at Kechara Forest Retreat(K.F.R) at Bentong, Malaysia:- (1) A special made statue of Dorje Shugden in his youthful and peaceful form filled with mantras, relics and holy items, standing 24 feet (7.3 meters) in height and is the “Largest in the World.” (2) A special throne for Dorje Shugden when he takes ‘trance’ of an oracle monk. This symbolizes that Kechara wishes Dorje Shogden to be here always for his oracles to visit. (3) Many dedicated grateful people who have received much benefits from Dorje Shugden’s assistances and gained great faith in him gathered together to create this statue for “light, hope, blessings, inspiration and merit for all who wish to come to receive good blessings from Dorje Shugden.” (4) Dorje Shugden is an emanation of Manjushri who gives wisdom, blessings and fulfillments. Our Rinpoche has experienced only good results for the last 30 years of devotions to this World Peace Buddha and Protector. In today’s world of obstacles which are so plentiful, and creating so much of unhappiness and sufferings. Therefore, Dorje Shugden is an important and urgent Guardian angel we need in our Lives to practice daily as a protector, as advised by our Rinpoche. Dorje Shugden has been practiced for 400 years by so many accomplished and eminent teachers of Tibet, China, India, Mongolia and Nepal, including common people of all races throughout the World! So please don’t miss the boat for your own good Buddhism practice protection by the powerful World peace Protector, Dorje Shugden of the ten directions. Thank you so much for the sharing, Rinpoche. Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha.

    Fantastic if one can visit Kechara Forest Retreat, the serene environment will inspire you. There are also Stupas to Circumambulate, quite a few large statues outside to circumambulate too, cirumambulation is a powerful activity, it blesses the mind streams opens up latent merits, purification.

    Within the Wisdom hall one can circumambulate the Shakyamuni, Dorje Shugden and Tsem Rinpoche’s throne also a powerful circumambulation to purify our karma, and negativity and hence improving our healths.

It is fantastic that Rinpoche’s efforts have translated into many people such as the commenter seeing the beauty in Dorje Shugden’s practice. Also Suzy has an interesting opinion about why His Holiness banned the practice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl-4lIwxph4&t=11s

    Trode Khangsar Chapel in Lhasa, Tibet

    Over 400 years ago a great and learned lama Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen was famed in Mongolia, Tibet, Nepal and China for being very saintly and compassionate. He resided in his residence (Zimkhang Gongma Ladrang) in Drepung Monastery. His root guru was H.H. the Omniscient 4th Panchen Lama and his close dharma brother was the 5th Dalai Lama.

    The 5th Dalai Lama and Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen had a very close and dharmic relationship and often went to receive teachings together from the 4th Panchen Lama. They were close in age. They both became very learned and well known. During this time, the Dalai Lama was enthroned as a Dharma King of Tibet. But more people went to see Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen for teachings, initiations and divinations. This made the attendants of the 5th Dalai Lama feel threatened that Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s fame might usurp the power of the 5th Dalai Lama. So they had a khata forced down his throat. At that moment, Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen dissolved his psychic winds and generated the wish to be a great guardian of Buddha and Tsongkapa’s teachings. As his consciousness dissolved, he entered ‘bardo’ as a dharma protector of the highest order (jikten depey sungma). Many signs were seen throughout Lhasa at this time and the earth was said to have shaken in Lhasa. This event was already predicted to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s previous incarnation when he was one of the 8 main disciples of Lord Tsongkapa the Supreme Master and he served Tsongkapa directly by building Gaden Monastery.

    When the 5th Dalai Lama heard what his scheming and power-hungry attendants had done, he was very distressed. He was very sorry Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen was murdered and dishonored as he was a great dharma master. The 5th Dalai Lama composed an apology to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen. In Lhasa, tens of thousands gathered for the cremation of Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s holy body. During the cremation, the 5th Dalai Lama’s apology was read out at which flames spontaneously arose from the body of Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen commencing the cremation. From the body, during cremation, a powerful whirlwind of smoke tunneled into the sky for all to see as this was an indication Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen’s consciousness has arisen as the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden. The Dharma Protector Setrap immediately recognized this new protector Dorje Shugden and ‘enthroned’ him as a powerful Dharma Protector in the realm of the Buddhas. From this, Setrap and Dorje Shugden are closely connected and very close working hand in hand always. After the cremation, the great 5th Dalai Lama built a Dorje Shugden chapel on the spot the cremation took place and named it Trode Khangsar. The 5th Dalai Lama commissioned the statue of Dorje Shugden in this chapel and had monks installed in the chapel to do continuous propitiations to Dorje Shugden. Trode Khangsar Chapel was a commemoration to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen who was wronged and also a celebration of his consciousness arising as the World Peace Peace Protector Dorje Shugden.

    This Trode Khangsar Chapel still exists now in Lhasa where many make pilgrimages there. It is in good condition and was recently renovated. It is over 400 years old and a testimony to the respect the Great 5th Dalai Lama had to Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen who arose as Dorje Shugden.

    I have visited this holy chapel in Lhasa years back. I’ve never heard of it till I was in Lhasa and by chance, I was told about it which I was happy to visit. I could not find the place but strangely a bunch of pilgrims from Amdo told me they would show me how to get there in Lhasa.

    This short video is a short clip of this holy Trode Khangsar Chapel in Lhasa today commemorating Dorje Shugden, built by the great 5th Dalai Lama. The great 5th Dalai Lama even composed a prayer to Dorje Shugden which is still available today and we can recite to invoke the blessings, protection, and assistance of World Peace Protector Dorje Shugden.

    The 5th Dalai Lama’s Prayer to Dorje Shugden

    HUM
    Though unmoving from the sphere of primordial spontaneity,
    With wrathful turbulent power, swifter than lightning,
    Endowed with heroic courage to judge good and bad,
    I invite you with faith, please come to this place!

    Robes of a monk, crown adorned with rhinoceros leather hat,
    Right hand holds ornate club, left holds a human heart,
    Riding various mounts such as nagas and garudas,
    Who subdues the mamos of the charnel grounds, praise to you!

    Samaya substances, offerings and torma, outer, inner and secret,
    Favourite visual offerings and various objects are arranged.
    Although, previously, my wishes were a bit dense,
    Do not stop your powerful apparitions, I reveal and confess!

    Now respectfully praising with body, speech, and mind,

    Bring increase like the waxing moon in spiritual and temporal realms!

    Moreover, swiftly accomplishing all wishes,
    According to our prayers, bestow the supreme effortlessly!
    And like the jewel that bestows all wishes,
    Always protect us with the Three Jewels!

    This is sacred ground. Thank you Rinpoche for making Kechara Forest Retreat happen, and for all who contributed one way or another, by sponsorship, time, energy, effort, prayers. May Kechara Forest Retreat be the epicentre of Buddhist teachings and practice, especially Lama Tsongkhapa and Dorje Shugden to benefit countless sentient beings.

    These large statues have such a wonderful history in Kechara. When Rinpoche first came to Malaysia, Rinpoche had a very difficult time looking for an iconographically accurate, affordable and beautiful Tsongkhapa statue. So instead of lamenting about it, Rinpoche created Kechara Discovery to produce statues so that it would be easy for people to invite home a nice Buddha.

    Rinpoche’s goal has always been that that everyone he meets or speaks to goes home with a Buddha image. The establishment of Kechara Discovery was in conjunction with Rinpoche’s efforts to educate people in general, and Malaysians specifically about the benefit of statues and making our altars as beautiful as possible. At the beginning, when people got tsa tsas, Rinpoche said many people would tell him, “Aiyah where to put ah? So big lah.” But like Rinpoche said, it was a matter of education and raising awareness, and having pioneers among Rinpoche’s students become fans of beautiful images. Nowadays, we have people buying 2ft, 3ft, even 5ft statues for their own home.

    Large Buddha statues have great benefit for the statue makers involved in such a large and meritorious project, for the people who fill and paint the statue, for the environment and all beings who lay eyes on the Buddha, and for the visitors who come to pay homage and make offerings to the trillions of Buddha images and holy items contained in such a large image. Since Rinpoche’s motivation is to always benefit others, this 24ft Dorje Shugden statue may be the largest in the world but you know, on examining Rinpoche’s history, I doubt this will be the end of the road for Kechara and we will see more and more big statues in the years to come 🙂

    “If the Dalai Lama, if His Holiness the Dalai Lama can be harmed by Dorje Shugden, then we might as well not practice Buddhism anymore. If His Holiness the Dalai Lama can have his life shortened by a so-called evil spirit, any evil spirit, then can he be Avalokiteshvara? So on one hand you say, we say, I say, everybody says, he is Avalokiteshvara; on the other hand you’re saying that he can harmed by an evil spirit… Which one is it? Can he harmed by an evil spirit or is he Avalokiteshvara? Do you think Avalokiteshvara, Manjushri, Vajrapani, Tara all take refuge in something else to protect themselves from Dorje Shugden? How illogical is that? How illogical of people to say His Holiness the Dalai Lama can be harmed by an evil spirit, any evil spirit or “Dorje Shugden” evil spirit. How is that possible?” – Tsem Tulku Rinpoche

    After reading this post, looking at all the pictures and etc, I am just lost for words as I can’t take to heart just how how huge and beautiful the 42 ft Dorje Shugden is when up close to it.

    It is great to have such a huge Dorje Shugden in a place such as Kechara forest Retreat to bless all the beings such as the local spirits, animals as well as us humans.

    This statue is really beautiful and I really appreciate the fact that Rinpoche also went as far as having the The 8 Guiding Monks, 9 Mothers and 10 Youthful and Wrathful assistants crafted and invited to the Wisdom Hall altar

    As with all the other facets of Kechara, the Wisdom Hall is a modern interpretation of a Tibetan temple, which still preserves the pure tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.

    Most Tibetan temples have their protector chapels separate from the main gompa (temple), and although different temples have their own set of “rules”, most do not allow the public to enter the protector chapel. Some only allow special guests to have audience.

    With this in mind, I would like to thank Rinpoche for sharing with everyone pictures of the incredibly blessed Dorje Shugden statue. May all who set their eyes on the largest Dorje Shugden statue in the world, receive imprints enabling them further explore their spiritual path in the near future. Thank you, Rinpoche.

I am not surprised about the rainbow at all. Right on schedule I believe. These images quiet my mind and bring immense peace. Also a burning desire to be there in person… It kinda hurts.

    This Lord Dorje Shugden statue is the most magnificent statue I have ever seen in my life. Despite a lot of online attacks accusing Dorje Shugden of being an evil spirit from social media account who never reveal their identities, I personally never see or heard anyone being harmed by Dorje Shugden by practising or harming others. Those who accuse Dorje Shugden for making them lose their country are just pushing their blame to others ignoring the teaching of Lord Buddha about karma. Why would someone placing the blames of losing their country to the practitioners who do not engage in politic rather then questioning their government leaders who are suppose to manage the country? It just doesn’t make any sense at all. And even until now they are still blaming the practise of Dorje Shugden is the cause of them cannot get the independance of their country, and at the same time claiming that practitioners of Dorje Shugden are just minority… Minority of religion practitioners are the cause of them cannot get independance… very interesting “logic”.
    Since Kechara House started its weekly Dorje Shugden puja, many people have feel the helps of Protector in their daily life and their spiritual practise. Lord Dorje Shugden will definitely continue to help all whether you believe in Him or not. He is the enlightened being who is willing to take a worldly protector form to help all sentient being. And that is why we always believe in Him.

    This is a precious moment recorded in the history of Kechara Forest Retreat and also the Shuden people. We not only built the tallest Dorje Shugden in the world, we also have the complete set of all the entourage. I believe many people from every where will visit KFR just to pay homage and make offerings to Dorje Shugden. We are very blessed to have Dorje Shugden to protect and bless this land, our work in Kechara Forest Retreat and clearing our obstacles in order for us to be in Kechara Forest Retreat. May all who see this Dorje Shugden be blessed by Dorje Shugden in your daily life. What we want is just a pure lineage to practice and meditation on. Nothing can be more peaceful than doing my meditation and prayers in front of Dorje Shugden.

    The magnificent Dorje Shugden statue was made large not because His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche wanted to claim it being the largest in the world. It is the largest because the sponsors have great faith in Dorje Shugden and they have received tremendous benefits from His practices. It shows that Dorje Shugden bestows benefits to those who practice the Dharma by providing the necessities for their spiritual journey. Some people claim that Dorje Shugden is a demon or a spirit. But their claims are based on what the Dalai Lama said it to be. These people may have not studied or engaged in His practices but just think so. How can so many high lamas and so many greatly attained masters, past and present, including His Holiness Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche (junior tutor to the 14th Dalai Lama) be wrong? How can His Holiness Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche be wrong? If hypothetically speaking both these great masters were wrong, then can’t the Dalai Lama also be wrong? After all the Dalai Lama was the student to Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche for over forty years?
    I think what is important for me is to learn, study and practice what my lama, His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche gave me for He received teachings from His Holiness Kyabje Zong Rinpoche who was a heart disciple of His Holiness Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche.

    Thank you all for your incredible efforts in making the dharma grow and for providing aid to people via DS practice. I have to note he really must be the largest DS statue in the world because the tip of his hat is almost touching the ceiling. Thank you and congratulations. I appreciate the little snippets of information that Rinpoche gives on his own personal experience and history of association and friendship with this protector as normal folks like me have zero knowledge of him and his greatness. Anyway, everything in your kechara forest retreat looks very nice Rinpoche. Thank you as always.

    Kechara Forest Retreat is the brainchild of our Founder HE Tsem Rinpoche. It is amazingly beautiful, both the buildings and the holy images. Such a beautiful biggest image of Dorje Shugden.

    The beauty of Wisdom Hall as the chapel for Dorje Shugden is enhanced by all the intricate details and knowledge put into every part of the whole. For this we the students thank our Root Guru, Tsem Rinpoche for His kindness and absolute knowledge to have conceived this Holy Place.

    All the teachings of Dorje Shugden and His lineage are also preserved on this blog. We are so fortunate, a physical perfect chapel and perfect cyber temple for our Protector, Dorje Shugden. Again for this heritage, we thank our Guru, HE Tsem Rinpoche.

    I would like to use this oppurtunity to reflect back onto the progress of KFR. KFR started small, just a few tents. And now it has become so huge and it is attracting more people to the dharma. I just wanted to point this out so that everyone can see the hard work and effort that people have out into KFR to make KFR what it is today. We must never forget that.

    It is difficult to describe the journey of building KFR from the time all was nothing but greens and 2 small cabins. One can truly see the progression from experiencing the entire process with their own eyes. There were much sweat and aching bones as it was no easy feat. The second phase would be tougher with fundraising and full time commitment. Seeing this beautiful complete pictures of phase 1 gives a sense of accomplishment and aspirations to move on to the next level. May DS bring the much needed resources through the positive energies of students and friends. _/\_

But the magical wonder and beauty of Kechara Forest Retreat culminates in the magnificent splendour of the tallest Dorje Shugden statue in the world, so resplendently rising from behind glorious Buddha Shakyamuni!I could feast my eyes and pay homage forever in all humility to this glorious spectacle!

    Thank you Rinpoche for sharing these amazing pictures.

    May Tsongkhapa’ precious teachings and the practice of its Protector Shugden flourish in the ten directions.

    感恩仁波切您

    感恩在仁波切您的加持与教诲下，成就了如此庄严无比的多杰雄登佛像，多杰雄登是文殊菩萨的化身，能够帮助开启我们的智慧，帮助消除我们在修行佛法道路上的障碍，这意味着，伟大的多杰雄登护法将能够造福着无尽的有情众生

    感恩仁波切您的教诲，让我们在谦卑中学习佛陀的教诲，也让我们明白在佛法中传承的重要，没有传承，等于佛法没有办法被完整的延续，没有上师，谁来教导我们佛陀的教诲与给予我们传承上的加持，等于在佛法的道路上将很难有所成就，佛法在透过正统的传承下，而被完整保存与延续，也因为尊贵的仁波切您无私的爱与付出，让身为弟子的我们，得到最纯真的佛法传承，也造下让佛陀的教法，与僧团能够被延续的善因

    弟子合十

    Thank you Rinpoche for the stunning pictures.

    I am so touched to see that the largest Dorje Shugden statue is in Malaysia, Kechara Forest Retreat. I am so proud and happy that i am in Kechara Organisation, where i met my Guru, and have the opportunity to learn Dharma from a pure lineage.

    How fortunate i am to be able to learn the Dorje Shugden puja from Kechara, and our Lineage is from Zong Rinpoche, Trijang Rinpoche and Pabongka Rinpoche.

    I hope that the Dorje Shugden practice here will benefits many people in this region.

    Thank you

    Everything is so beautiful. Thank you RInpoche for blessing us with the Dorje Shuden practice.
    Dorje Shugen has benefited and will benefit many more people in the future as it did me. I’m truly awed by Rinpoches kindness and will strive to repay it by my humble dharma practice.

    Thank u Rinpoche for the wonderful pictures. The biggest Dorje Shuden Statue of the world really look very good. Finally… in Malaysia devotees can have a chance to see such magnificent statue of Dorje Shuden.

    Those tt may not know… Rinpoche had placed alot of time and effort in the building and construction of phase 1. Telling the team how he want it to be and how it should be done to better benefit the people. What really impresses me is the fact that Rinpoche already have everything in mind how KFR should be like and always wanted us to do our best to get the place up.

    Really glad tt i was given a chance to participate in the 1st phase of building. I cant wait to see what KFR have to offer when the 2nd phase is up. Cheers.

      You are absolutely right Dato’ Colin. Every building in Kechara Forest Retreat is conceptualised by Rinpoche, from the purpose/usage to the most minute detail. Rinpoche has an eye for everything because he cares. Rinpoche personally stayed in the construction cabin during the earlier days when we did the clearing work before we could start building and endured the mosquitoes, flood, heat and the days when there was no electricity, etc etc. I remember one very hot afternoon when Rinpoche walked with Dato’ Wira Eric up the hill, Rinpoche fainted due to fatigue and the heat. Another time Rinpoche’s boots were stuck in the deep mud after a heavy downpour. Just like what Pastor Seng Piow wrote in the article High & Low https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/personal-attendant/high-low , Rinpoche is not only a high Lama who sits on the throne to teach, Rinpoche also teaches through his action and walks the talk.

    The Dorje Shugden statue is stunning and the entourage statues are very well made. We are all so blessed to have them through the guidance of Rinpoche. Thank you for the wonderful article. I’m sure many people around the world will want to have audience with the protector in Kechara Forest Retreat.
