Question asked by Niklas
Hello Pastors!
I have a question:
I'm 25 years old and I'm quite newbie to Buddhism. I used to together with my auntie chanting Diamond Sutra daily but I noticed that after chanting sutra that my auntie will always recite 3x the verse called Prayer to World Peace Protector Dorje Shugden by H.H 5th DalaiLama. I have asked her about this Protector called Dorje Shugden and she gently introduce me about Him a little bit that it's brought me so much peace and joy.
I just want to ask:
What's meaning for us after chanting sutra that we usually recite Protector praise like my auntie does?
I usually chanting Diamond Sutra with Her but I'm not so understand the truly meaning of this sutra. How I should understand the essence meanings of this sutra during chanting to get more benefits and realisation?
What's benefits of this Sutra and Protector Dorje Shugden can help me in daily life?
Thank you so much.
Bettany Mary Hughes is an English historian, author, and broadcaster, specialising in classical history. Bettany Hughes travelled to the seven wonders of the Buddhist world. Where she documented a unique insight into the seven wonders that explained the long and rich history of Buddhism 2500 years ago . Truly fascinating documentary that’s one should watch. Started off her journey with Bodh Gaya in India, the Bodanath Stupa in Nepal, the Temple of The Tooth in Sri Lanka, Wat Pho Temple in Thailand, Angkor Wat in Cambodia, the Giant Buddha in Hong Kong and the Hsi Lai Temple in the United States. At each location, she meets with Buddhist scholars who explain the different concepts that form the core of Buddhist philosophy, giving insight into the long and rich history of Buddhism. Interesting sharing.
Thank you Rinpoche.
