(Oleh Tsem Rinpoche dan Beatrix Ooi)

Dupa memainkan peran penting dalam Buddhisme sejak lama. Tradisi Theravada, Mahayana, Vajrayana Zen, Buddhisme Tibet dan lainnya menganggap dupa sebagai dasar substansi persembahan yang umum bagi para Buddha dan mahluk tercerahkan.

Menurut sejarah Buddhisme, dupa digunakan untuk pertama kalinya pada jaman Buddha Shakyamuni, ketika seorang wanita bernama Magadha Sangmo mempersembahkan dupa dan berdoa untuk memohon sang Buddha mengunjungi desa tempat tinggalnya. Magadha Sangmo adalah putri dari penyandang dana utama sang Buddha, Suddatta. Seperti sang ayah, ia memiliki keyakinan yang kuat terhadap Buddha Shakyamuni dan merupakan pengabdi yang setia.

Setelah menikah dan pindah ke desa dimana Buddhisme belum dipraktikkan, ia berharap untuk bertemu dengan gurunya, sang Buddha, lagi. Jadi pada suatu hari, ia naik ke atap rumah mertuanya, mempersembahkan dupa dan dengan tulus berdoa kepada sang Buddha untuk mengunjunginya. Setelah mendengarkan doa tersebut, Buddha Shakyamuni, bersama dengan rombongannya, turun dari langit untuk memenuhi permohonan Magadha Sangmo. Konon, setelah bertemu dengan sang Buddha dan mendengarkan ajarannya, seluruh desa menjadi penganut Buddhisme. Dengan cara ini, permohonan tulus dari Magadha Sangmo kepada sang Buddha juga memberikan manfaat kepada warga setempat dan generasi selanjutnya.

Magadha Sangmo melafalkan bait berikut ketika berdoa kepada sang Buddha:

MA LU SEM CHEN KUN GYI GON GYUR CHING
DU TE PUNG CHAY MI ZAY JOM DZAY LHA
NGO NAM MA LU YANG DA KYEN GYUR PAY
CHOM DEN KOR CHAY NAY DIR SHEG SU SOL

Pelindung semua mahluk tanpa kecuali,
Penakhluk ilahi dari berbagai kekuatan negatif,
Dewa, yang maha mengetahui,
Bhagawan dan rombongan, kumohon datanglah kemari.

Praktik sangsol atau persembahan dupa kepada Dorje Shugden memainkan peran penting karena Magadha Sangmo adalah salah satu kehidupan terdahulu Dorje Shugden.

 

Persembahan Dupa Dalam Tradisi Tibet

Dalam Buddhisme Tibet, seperti halnya tradisi Buddhisme lainnya, dupa digunakan sebagai persembahan kepada Tiga Permata (Buddha, Dharma, dan Sangha) selama berabad-abad. Dalam ritual, dupa digunakan untuk memurnikan substansi persembahan seperti air, makanan dan cahaya.

Dalam ilmu pengobatan tradisional Tibet, dupa digunakan sebagai substansi obat untuk menyembuhkan penyakit tertentu. Karena kualitas menyembuhkan dari bahan-bahannya, dupa dari Tibet digunakan untuk membantu meringankan dan menenangkan pikiran yang terganggu karena depresi, gelisah, khawatir dan stress. Dokter ilmu pengobatan Tibet mendapatkan pengetahuan mereka dari teks medis Tibet yang berasal dari Empat Tantra, dikenal sebagai Gyudzhi dalam bahasa Tibet. Ini adalah Tantra Akar, Tantra Pencerahan, Tantra Instruksi dan Tantra Akhir.

Menurut teori medis dari Tibet, semua hal di alam semesta terbuat dari lima elemen: Sa (tanah), Me (api), Chu (air), Lung (angin) dan Namkha (ruang). Akan tetapi, hanya empat elemen pertama yang memainkan peran dalam klasifikasi penyakit medis. Dupa juga dapat digunakan dalam konteks non-relijius yaitu untuk penyembuhan.

Sangsol: Ritual Persembahan Dupa

Persembahan dupa mengingatkan kita untuk memegang sumpah dengan tulus dan menciptakan sebab bagi kita untuk melakukannya. Sumpah ini termasuk sumpah Perlindungan, Pratimoksha, Bodhisattva dan Tantra. Banyak biksu luhur yang konon tubuhnya mengeluarkan aroma harum karena mereka memegang sumpah mereka dengan baik dan telah mencapai kesempurnaan moralitas. Lama Tsongkhapa yang luhur, pendiri aliran Gelug dalam Buddhisme Tibet dikenal sebagai salah seorang yang memiliki kualitas ini.

Dalam ajaran Buddhisme, moralitas dianggap sebagai salah satu dari Enam Kesempurnaan bagi praktisi Bodhisattva. Karenanya, moralitas adalah salah satu persyaratan untuk mencapai Pencerahan Penuh. Jadi, ketika kita memberikan persembahan dupa kepada sang Buddha, kita mendapatkan pahala untuk menjadi seperti mereka dan memegang sumpah kita dengan sempurna. Pencapaian yang tinggi tergantung pada dipegangnya tiga macam sumpah (Pratimoksha, Bodhisattva dan tantra) yang kita terima dari guru yang berkualifikasi.

Dengan memegang sumpah ini, kita mengarahkan kebiasaan kita menuju sebuah realita yang lebih tinggi. Realita ini terdiri dari tindakan yang tidak mementingkan diri sendiri berdasarkan pandangan yang benar, dan bukannya proyeksi egois yang mendorong pada terciptanya karma dan mengalami akibat dari karma tersebut. Karma dan buahnya mengikat seseorang pada samsara tanpa akhir. Proyeksi yang salah adalah cara kita untuk melihat dunia secara terdistorsi dan akibatnya, tindakan kita juga terdistorsi dan mencelakakan diri dan orang lain. Distorsi dalam hal ini adalah pandangan yang berfokus pada diri sendiri dan menganggap hal tersebut sebagai fenomena yang permanen.

Semua cara pandang yang melihat ‘saya’ sebagai lebih penting dari mahluk lain adalah terdistorsi karena dalam istilah awam, hal ini membawa pada egoisme yang lebih dalam. Dalam tingkatan manapun di masyarakat, egoisme tidaklah bermanfaat. Egoisme adalah mendapatkan hasil dengan ‘tidak menghiraukan’ kebutuhan mahluk lain. Karenanya, mempersembahkan dupa membantu mengumpulkan pahala yang didasarkan pada aspirasi Bodhisattva dan membantu kita menyadari pandangan yang lebih tinggi dan melihat kesalahan dari melayani diri sendiri dan bukannya memenuhi kebutuhan semua mahluk hidup. Melayani diri adalah sebab dari semua celaka dan penderitaan, dan melayani mahluk lain adalah sebab dari semua kebahagiaan di samsara dan Nirvana. Karenanya, memegang samaya, kata-kata kehormatan, janji dan sumpah membawa kita pada pandangan yang lebih tinggi, tindakan yang lebih baik dan memudahkan kita dalam merubah kebiasaan buruk menjadi kebiasaan baik dan pada akhirnya kita akan menciptakan lebih sedikit sebab yang mencelakakan. Lebih sedikit tindakan yang mencelakakan, lebih sedikit juga sebab bagi kita dan orang-orang di sekitar kita untuk menderita. Bila kita tidak berubah, bagaimana kita bisa dengan tulus melayani mahluk lain. Karenanya, mempersembahkan dupa dengan kualitas terbaik dengan motivasi tertinggi mungkin terlihat seperti laku spiritual yang sederhana, tetapi hal ini membawa kita pada pandangan yang lebih tinggi, membantu melaksanakan praktik kita dengan integritas dan konsistensi, menciptakan pahala dan kemampuan untuk memegang sumpah yang membawa pada pencapaian dan cara pandang yang lebih tinggi dalam pikiran kita. Mempersembahkan dupa harus dilakukan setiap hari dan secara konsisten dengan keyakinan penuh pada Dharma tertinggi yang membebaskan pikiran kita dari semua penderitaan seperti sang Buddha yang telah berhasil melintasi samsara. Yang tidak akan kembali ke samsara dalam bentuk mahluk menderita yang membawa penderitaan lebih jauh bagi mahluk lain. Persembahan dupa adalah praktik bermakna yang tidak boleh dianggap remeh.

Teks sangsol yang paling awal berasal dari abad ke 8 pada saat biara pertama di Tibet yaitu Biara Samye didirikan. Biara ini dibangun dengan dukungan Raja Trisong Detsen, Guru Tantra yang luhur, Guru Rinpoche, dan Guru Sutra yang luhur, Santarakshita. Teks aslinya disembunyikan dan baru ditemukan berabad-abad kemudian oleh para pengabdi. Perlu diingat bahwa mempersembahkan sangsol atau dupa adalah mirip. Sang adalah dupa dalam bentuk bubuk atau telah ditumbuk dalam jumlah besar. Dupa sendiri berbentuk batangan.

Dalam aliran Gelugpa, ada beberapa teks sangsol yang ditulis oleh para guru cendikiawan Buddhisme Tibet seperti Dalai Lama ke 5, Lama Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso, Lama Yeshe Wangpo dan Yang Suci Pancen Lama ke 4, Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsen. Versi singkat dari persembahan sangsol kepada Dorje Shugden (seperti yang tercantum di bawah ini) ditulis oleh seorang guru cendikiawan, Yang Mulia Serkong Dorje Chang.

 

Kapan Sebaiknya Melakukan Sangsol?

Sangsol biasanya dilakukan di ruang terbuka pada saat perayaan keagamaan dan saat-saat spesial seperti pernikahan, ulang tahun, Losar (Tahun Baru Tibet), pada saat puja dan lainnya. Menurut tradisi Tibet, dupa biasanya dibakar dalam sebuah sangpur, sebuah wadah berbentuk guci untuk membakar dupa. Sangpur biasanya dibangun di tempat yang tinggi, contohnya di pegunungan dan di atas bukit. Sangpur juga biasanya dibangun di daerah dimana dewa setempat dan para naga berdiam. Hal ini dilakukan agar ketika sangsol dilakukan, lingkungan sekitar termasuk para mahluk yang tinggal di sana turut terberkati oleh energi ilahi.

Secara tradisi, sangsol dilakukan untuk memurnikan karma yang dikumpulkan karena melanggar samaya. Walau pada umumnya samaya merujuk pada hubungan dengan pembimbing spiritual kita, dalam hal ini samaya juga bisa berarti hubungan dengan saudara, saudari dan rekan Dharma. Karenanya, menjaga hubungan yang harmonis dengan para individu ini sangatlah dianjurkan.

Saat lain dimana sangsol dilakukan adalah untuk memurnikan lingkungan dalam rumah. Sebelum acara penting dimulai, Yang Mulia Tsem Rinpoche menginstruksikan agar murid-muridnya melakukan sang di ruangan atau di rumah. Tujuannya adalah untuk menghilangkan kesulitan dari hadirin yang akan berpartisipasi dalam acara, contohnya, agar mereka yang ingin bertemu untuk meminta nasihat atau ajaran berpikiran jernih. Melakukan sang setiap hari di rumah, kantor, atau tempat tertentu untuk menghilangkan energi negatif dan meningkatkan energi positif bagi mereka yang tinggal atau bekerja di sana. Bila ada energi atau entitas negatif di lingkungan kita, maka persembahan dupa kepada para Buddha dan menyebarkan asap dupa di seluruh ruang rumah atau kantor dapat membantu menenangkan mereka. Ini adalah cara yang ampuh untuk menyegarkan kembali energi yang hilang atau terpolusi di rumah atau di kantor kita. Hal ini bisa dilakukan bahkan oleh mereka yang tidak relijius. 

Selain memurnikan karma dan kesulitan seseorang, sangsol juga dilakukan pada lokasi konstruksi. Ketika sangsol dilakukan, mahluk bijaksana diundang ke lokasi tertentu untuk datang dan membantu kita. Dalam contoh Dorje Shugden, ketika energi ilahi beliau diundang, lingkungan dan mahluk yang tinggal di sana seperti dewa setempat dan naga yang mudah tersinggung ketika konstruksi berlangsung di daerah mereka juga akan terberkati. Ritual sangsol akan memberkati dan mendamaikan mereka dan karenanya, kesulitan yang mungkin timbul dan kecelakaan yang bisa terjadi karena para mahluk ini bisa dicegah.

 

Bagaimana Cara Memulai?

Sebelum melakukan sangsol, ada beberapa poin penting yang harus diperhatikan:

  1. Kualitas dupa atau sang yang dipersembahkan harus yang terbaik sesuai dengan kemampuan kita. Dan yang paling penting, substansinya harus bersih dan murni.
  2. Dupa tidak boleh diinjak oleh hewan atau manusia pada proses persiapannya.
  3. Menurut kebudayaan dan tradisi Tibet, dupa biasanya terbuat dari jintan saru, konifer, daun dan kayu harum, pakis, cendana merah atau putih, agar, pinus, pohon cedar, minyak mur, amber, kemenyan, teratai salju, kembang sepatu, safron, orpine merah, borneol, rhododendron dan banyak substansi lainnya. Kebanyakan, ramuan obat-obatan dicampur dengan mentega, tsampa (tepung barli yang telah dipanggang) dan gula dibakar bersamaan. Mereka yang tinggal di perkotaan dan kesulitan mendapatkan bahan-bahan alami seperti ini bisa mempersembahkan campuran sederhana jintan saru dan dupa pelindung. (Klik di sini untuk mengetahui lebih lanjut mengenai berbagai jenis dupa.)
  4. Bahan-bahan ini harus dalam kondisi murni, bebas dari polutan seperti alkohol, bawang bombay dan bawang putih.

Persembahan Sang di Kechara Forest Retreat

Adalah praktik yang umum untuk selalu menetapkan motivasi yang baik sebelum berdoa atau melakukan pekerjaan berpahala. Hal yang sama harus diterapkan dalam ritual sangsol. Bagi mereka yang belum mengenal konsep menetapkan motivasi yang baik, hal ini dilakukan untuk menetapkan maksud yang tulus untuk memberi manfaat bagi semua makhluk dengan mendedikasikan pahala yang dikumpulkan dari melakukan tindakan baik, dalam hal ini mempersembahkan dupa, bagi kesejahteraan mereka.

Setelah menetapkan motivasi yang benar, kita melafalkan bait-bait perlindungan sementara merenungkan Empat Hal Tak Terhingga. Praktisi yang telah menerima inisiasi Tantra dapat memvisualisasikan diri mereka sebagai yidam atau dewa meditasi masing-masing. Kemudian kita lanjutkan dengan doa sangsol, yang dimulai dengan melafalkan “OM AH HUM” tiga kali.

Bila kita memiliki permohonan tertentu kepada Dorje Shugden, permohonan ini bisa diucapkan pada saat pelafalan doa sangsol. Menjelang akhir doa sangsol, kita memohon para dewa setempat untuk kembali ke kediaman masing-masing. Kemudian kita menyelesaikan ritual sangsol dengan melafalkan bait-bait dedikasi.

Catatan: Walaupun ditulis dalam teks doa bahwa kita memurnikan para dewa ketika kita mempersembahkan dupa, makna sebenarnya adalah kita memurnikan karma negatif dan kesulitan kita melalui persembahan ini. Kalian bisa mempersembahkan sangsol setiap hari atau sesering mungkin sesuai keinginan anda. Tidak ada celaka atau pembatasan.

(Saat hendak memberikan persembahan sang, kumpulkan semua dupa yang ada; ulangi ayat Perlindungan dan Pencipta Pemikiran Bodhi tiga kali.)

HUM!
Menempatkan diri sebagai yidam, dari hati nurani,
Cahaya menyeruak memurnikan semua ketidaksempurnaan dalam dupa,
Harumnya memiliki lima khasiat yang utuh sempurna,
Memberi bahagia murni yang memenuhi jalan kesadaran.

OM AH HUM (ulangi sebanyak mungkin untuk memberkati)

HUM!
Segenap guru, utama dan silsilah, Tiga Permata,
Segenap Daka, Dakini dan Pelindung Dharma,
Yang utama Dorje Shugden dan pengiringnya,
Atas kekuatan tak terbatas, datanglah.

Juga segenap dewata kelahiran, perang dan pelindung,
Dewata sekeliling, roh dan penjaga dalam delapan kelompok,
Sekumpulan tamu yang layak kujamu,
Datanglah.

Semua duduk senang di tahta masing-masing
Untuk memenuhi tindakan yang dipercayakan sang yogi,
Asap dupa luar, dalam, benda-benda ikrar dan persembahan,
Terimalah semua ini dan genapilah tindakan yang kupercayakan.

KYE!
Agar, kayu Cendana, enam rempah obat dan tumbuhan,
Dengan bumbungan asap dari api kebijaksanaan yang memenuhi langit,
Memurnikan para lama utama dan silsilah Yidam dan Tiga Permata.
Memurnikan para Daka, Dakini dan Pelindung Dharma.

Memurnikan terutama Pelindung Dharma Utama Sang Penakluk Manjunatha
Dorje Shugden dan empat emanasi utamanya.
Memurnikan kelahiran, perang dan lima dewa pelindung.
Memurnikan dewata sekeliling, roh, penjaga dan kedelapan kelompok.

Dengan kuasa mempersembahkan dupa pada tamu mulia
Semoga semua rintangan, pertikaian dan samaya dimurnikan.
Semoga umur diperpanjang, pahala dan kuasa meningkat.
Jinakkan semua penyakit pada manusia dan hewan, kelaparan, perang dan pertengkaran.

Semoga panennya bagus dan hujan turun tepat waktu.
Taklukkan segala jenis iblis dari sisi gelap, tingkatkan yang terang,
Dan setelah kita berteman secara spontan dan mengalir,
Capailah semua tujuan seperti yang diharapkan.

KI KI SO SO, LHA GYEL LO!

HUM!
Tersenangkan dan puas, para tamu kembali ke alam mereka,
Kembali saat diminta untuk menggenapi tindakan.
Dengan janji ini ijinkan ku dan semua ibu para mahluk
Untuk menikmati kebahagiaan dan keberuntungan selamanya.

Dan secara khusus, pandangan meditasi dan tindakan benar Je Rinpoche,
Tak tercela oleh pemikiran jahat, Anugrahkan keberuntungan
Agar di atas bumi, tanah dan alam bawah bersinar dengan pencerahan.

Untuk pemanggul Ajaran, semua sosok tertinggi,
Yang berbebankan pembebasan kehidupan dari tradisi murni itu,
Sang Geden, terasuk oleh hiasan mahkota, Buddha Ayah dan kedua Putranya,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan sehingga kehidupan mereka dan tindakan pencerahannya meningkat.

Meningkat meninggi bak bulan menanjak,

Dengan pemastian sempurna yang dilakukan ketiga pemikir,
Akan tiga macam obyek pemikiran tanpa pengecualian,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan Pramana, melahirkan para pemikir ulung melalui nalar.

Buah hasil kesadaran melalui delapan topik,
Jalan menuju kesadaran, maksud rahasia Prajnaparamita,

Berjalan di tapak yang menyenangkan para Buddha, bebas dari ekstrimitas ketidakberubahan dan ketidakadaan,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan Madhyamika, jalan yang mendalam.

Mendapatkan kepastian dalam cara kebangkitan yang hidup dan mati,
Sumber kasar dan halus darimana semua penyebab derita,
Pengetahuan akan delusi dan tipu muslihatnya, penyebarannya dan cara melepaskannya,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan Abhidharmakosha yang tak tercela.

Bagai dasar darimana semua ini tanpa pengecualian, tercipta,
Mempraktikkan ketiga pelatihan tinggi dengan mengandalkan

Sama bagusnya, sebagai sarana membantu lainnya,
Dengan menyingkirkan semua kebingungan dan ketidaktahuan dalam ketrampilan,
Seperti tata bahasa, astrologi, puisi, leksikografi, melukis, ketrampilan tangan dan ilmu obat,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan penguasaan yang bijak dan menyeluruh.

Khususnya, mohon berikan keberuntungan dalam pandangan, meditasi dan tindakan yang dijalankan bersamaan,
Yang tidak salah pada yang dituju, urutan dan makna dan penafsiran,
Dalam semua tahap dalam praktik pelepasan, Bodhicitta,
Cara pandang yang benar tentang kekosongan, keenam kesempurnaan, keempat cara pengumpulan.

Kemudian, dari seorang mahir dalam vajra, setelah menerima
Pendayaan keempat Tubuh, pintu masuk tantra,
Menjaga sumpah dan prinsip dengan teguh seperti menjaga hidupku sendiri,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan berupa keberhasilan dalam yoga empat sesi.

Kemudian, diperkenalkan pada sumber dasar; kelahiran, kematian dan bardo,
Yang akan dimurnikan, para pemurninya, dan buah pemurnian,
Berkati aku dengan keberuntungan untuk mencapai keseimbangan pada
roda-roda Mandala besar dan kecil yang dalam, dewata yang jelas, tingkat kematangan penciptaan.

Dengan pelafalan vajra, yang menembus pokok-pokok utama,
Membuka semua simpul saluran sehingga semua angin
Masuk, mengitari dan memudar dalam saluran utama; berkati aku dengan keberuntungan
Untuk mewujudkan jalan kebahagiaan-kekosongan, tahap penyelesaian yang membebaskan.

Cahaya jernih murni dan tidak murni berasal darinya
Dan hanya angin dan pikiran yang bangkit langsung bagai
Ilusi dalam bentuk pertanda,
Mohon berikan keberuntungan Yuganaddha, sang empunya tujuh ciri.

Singkat kata, bak melebur semua kebaikan yang terkumpul,
Dan berkat di samsara dan nirvana, keduanya duniawi dan surgawi,
Setelah diajar dengan iman teguh dan samaya murni,
Anugrahkan keberuntungan berupa kemujuran dan kecakapan.

(Membaca mantra demikian adalah cara untuk melebur semua berkat yang terkumpulkan di samsara dan nirvana menurut tradisi oral Geden. Penting untuk memiliki keyakinan yang stabil yang mampu menyatukan semua pencapaian tinggi dan biasa. Kemudian murnikan tambahan dan pengurangan dengan mantra 100 suku kata. Setelah memohon pengampunan atas kesalahan, mohonlah peninggalan tempat:)

HUM
Dewata Buddha Losang Vajradhara dan
Seluruh ladang pahala larut dalam diriku, sang yogi.
Semua kekotoran dan noda ketiga pintu termurnikan,
Ku menerima empat inisiasi dan menjadi bisa mencapai keempat Tubuh.

Para sosok duniawi, senang dengan persembahan sang,
Tanpa pikiran jahat dan saling cemburu,
Tapi dengan pikiran kasih, kembali ke persemayaman masing-masing.

Semoga kebajikan apapun yang telah aku kumpulkan
Membawa manfaat bagi Ajaran dan pengelana,
Dan terutama semoga menyebabkan intisari
Ajaran Guru Losang Dragpa yang tak pernah salah menjadi jelas selamanya!

(Bacalah doa apapun dan ayat-ayat yang membawa keberuntungan.)

    Tales of supernatural creatures like Bigfoot, aliens, trolls, little people are always my reading interest. Came across this old blog about Dark Watchers so interesting.
    The Dark Watchers known by early Spanish settlers as Los Vigilantes Oscuros. Is a name given to a group of entities in California folklore purportedly seen observing travellers along the Santa Lucia Mountains. The earliest written accounts of the Dark Watchers date back to the 1700s, when Spanish colonists called them los vigilantes oscuros. According to Chumash folklore, the Dark Watchers are shadowy figures that stand atop the lofty heights, silently observing the land below. The Dark Watchers are mysterious, tall, shadowy figures that have been reported in California for centuries. They are often described as wearing cloaks and hats, and are said to appear around twilight. Whatever scary it looks we have Dorje Shugden to protect us. Even though there are spirits every where seen or not seen by our naked eyes we should leave them un disturb as it is. I do believe its existence every where day and night.
    Thank you Rinpoche sharing this with us.

    Revisit this blog again and again as its such an interesting blog with awesome stories to share. All about a great Gelugpa lama . Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen was a scholar, an abbot, a Dharma teachers and he was also a healer. He was an important Gelugpa lama and a contemporary of the 5th Dalai Lama. Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen was the erudite high lama who arose as the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden, regarded as an emanation of the Wisdom Buddha Manjushri. During the era of the Great Fifth Dalai Lama, Dorje Shugden took rebirth in the form of a very special incarnate lama. Just imagine at the age of 2 or 3, he was already speaking and playing with ritual instruments and having clear visions of meditational deities and enlightened beings. Apparently, he had also received many direct visions of deities and exalted Gurus from a very young age. Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen and the 5th Dalai Lama shared a very respectful and close relationship. As results there’s jealousy among officers of 5th Dalai Lama resulting in the murder of Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen. As an apology to Dorje Shugden for the murder the 5th Dalai Lama crafted a statue and even composed an apologetic prayer. He also built a chapel Trode Khangsar dedicated to recognize Tulku Drakpa Gyeltsen as a Dharma protector,Dorje Shugden in Lhasa.
    I have the opportunity to visit this Scared Trode Khangsar years back . Reading this blog always remind me of my trip.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this interesting sharing. May more people able to visit this Trode Khangsar.

    Buddhism is one of the recognized religions in Indonesia, with a long history in the country. The largest Buddhist temple in the world, Borobudur, is located in Central Java. Buddhism arrived in Indonesia in the sixth century. The history of Buddhism in Indonesia is closely related to the history of Hinduism. The Indonesian archipelago has, over the centuries, witnessed the rise and fall of powerful Buddhist empires. A number of Buddhist sites and artifacts related to Indonesia’s historical heritage can be found in Indonesia. As such the 8th century Borobudur mandala monument and Sewu temple in Central Java and numerous statues or inscriptions from the earlier history of Indonesian Hindu-Buddhist kingdoms. Interesting read. Many Buddhist sites, stupas, temples, and manuscripts were lost or forgotten with since the arrival of Islam. Once a year, thousands of Buddhists from Indonesia and neighboring countries flock to Borobudur to commemorate the national Waisak Day. The Borobudur Temple Compounds is one of the greatest Buddhist monuments in the world, and was built in the 8th and 9th centuries AD. The monument was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1991.
    Thank you Rinpoche , interesting sharing. Hopefully I could visit this great monument in future

    The Lizard Man is a legendary, seven-foot-tall, red-eyed, scaly-skinned reptile that is said to live in the swamps of South Carolina. The legend of the Lizard Man has been around since 1988. The Lizard Man of Scape Ore Swamp ,also known as the Lizard Man of Lee County is an entity said to inhabit the swampland of the region. A large, green, lizard-like creature emerged from the shadows. Many others have claimed encounters with the legendary Lizard Man. The Lizard Man has been the subject of much publicity in the press, on the radio, television and even in movies. The lizard man myth brings curious travellers from across the globe into town, searching for the prehistoric beast lurking beneath the swamp. Ancient Historical Accounts of Lizard man sound interesting after reading it. I do believe in legends as there’s many unseen beings whereby is not seen by our naked eyes. Many others have claimed encounters with the legendary Lizard Man, leaving a mark on the small, agricultural town.
    Thank you Rinpoche and Cindy for this interesting sharing.

    Arjia Rinpoche is one of the most prominent Buddhist teachers and lamas to have left Tibet. He was recognized by 10th Panchen Lama as the 20th Arjia Danpei Gyaltsen, the reincarnation of Je Tsongkhapa’s father. He has trained with lineage teachers, such as the 14th Dalai Lama, the 10th Panchen Lama, and Gyayak Rinpoche. He had received many sacred teachings and ritual instructions from these great lamas. He was forced to leave his monastery and attend a Chinese school, yet secretly continued to practice and study with his tutors during the Cultural Revolution . Arjia Rinpoche went into exile and escaped to the United established a Buddhist Center for Compassion and Wisdom. Throughout his life, Arjia Rinpoche was tutored by specialized teachers in the area of Buddhist philosophy, sutra and tantra teachings, as well as in Buddhist art and architectural design.Since then Rinpoche has been giving teachings throughout the United States, Canada, Taiwan, India and Guatemala.
    For the sake of harmony and unity of the Tibetans , Rinpoche has advised the Tibetans to stop discriminating against Dorje Shugden practitioners. Arjia Rinpoche’s message of peaceful is consistent with the spirit of Buddhism and even spirituality in general. The ban against Dorje Shugden was imposed in 1996 and since that time, the has cause sufferings among the Tibetans in exile. No one should be discriminated against due to their religion or spiritual path. Dorje Shugden people, should be allowed choice of religion and be involved in the preservation of the Tibetan culture.It was during the 10th Panchen Lama’s Maha-Parinirvana 30th Anniversary, Arjia Rinpoche spoke bravely on fulfilling the Panchen Lama’s wishes.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing.

    Buddhism is a religion and philosophy that developed from the doctrines of the Buddha. Is a major religion in the world, originated in India in the 5th century BCE and is based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, also known as the Buddha. Buddhists believe that life is a cycle of suffering and rebirth. Having priests and pastors in each centers or place of worships or retreat centers around the world serving and spreading Buddha teachings with more and more people get to know more knowledge of Buddhism. Reading this blog , given me a more understanding of the role of Pastors or known as Priest in some parts of the world. There’s many Buddhist Priest around the world serving others leading services , performing ceremonies and rituals. Many people have benefited, having Pastors or Priests around helping them out with their teaching, and providing spiritual support. That’s awesome. Here at Kechara we too having Pastors making Buddha’s wisdom accessible to more people by giving spiritual guidance and sharing knowledge. In this way, the Dharma is preserved and made available to busy spiritual seekers. Interesting blog knowing some of those wonderful Buddhist priests around the world and many more to come spreading Dharma teachings..
    Thank you Rinpoche .

    Compassion is always in season. Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet. Until he extends the circle of compassion to all living things. Animals have moral status, and animal suffering matters. No need to explain more as different people have different view. Let them be and say what they want.

    Thank you Rinpoche for this sharing. Living a quiet life, often characterized by simplicity and a deliberate choice. A far away quiet environment can offer numerous benefits for one’s well-being and overall quality of life. Living a calm and simple life yet rich with inner meaning, personal growth, and a deep connection to oneself, one’s values . Those moment of quietness, free from the rush and noise of daily life, allows for self-reflection and a deeper understanding of our actions and their impacts. By taking a softer approach to living, we can focus more on our internal happiness, building our emotional health.
    Since learning Dharma and putting into practice have taught me to live simplicity free from the rush and noise of daily life.

    The act of liberating animals helps us to develop the nature of not harming others, creating the awareness of not eating animals for the sake of attachment to meat and thus promoting a vegetarian lifestyle. When one releasing lives brings blessings to the whole family, a multitude releasing lives brings divine protection. Among all merits, releasing lives is indeed supreme. Beyond financial generosity , we also practice the generosity of Dharma and the generosity of fearlessness. Releasing lives embodies all three types of giving in one noble act which we should make use of the opportunity to do more. The merits of animals liberation are truly unparalleled.
    Reading this article by Daily Mail Reporter where a group of Tibetan Buddhists released 534 live lobsters into the Atlantic Sea. Rejoice Geshe Tenley and a group of Tibetan Buddhists releasing them one by one to freedom into the deep water.
    Thank you Rinpoche .

    A Chinese ghost marriage is a ceremony that unites a deceased person with a living or deceased person. The family of the deceased usually arranges the marriage. Despite its long history and unique practices, the original purposes of ghost marriages remain largely unknown. The ghost is a classical image in Chinese culture, have a history stretching back 3,000 years. This tradition dates back to the first Chinese dynasty, making it at least 2200 years old, while others even note that it’s roughly 3000 years old! Despite reports of it still being practiced in remote Chinese villages in China,Taiwan and certain Asian countries . Ghost marriages are acceptable and symbolic in especially in Taiwanese culture, with many social elements related to them. Interestingly enough Li Kim and team did a great research ,spoke to Professor Lin Mao-Hsien, a Taiwanese folklore scholar on these interesting tradition. Reading this article with a better understanding of the ghost marriages. The story of the man by the name Wu Wen-Da, who had been dreaming about a dead woman named Zheng Su Mei truly interesting.

    Interesting account of the investigation of Supiyati an Indonesian woman’s body filled with needles, nails, and wires.
    After many efforts to find a cure in their hometown never found any success, Dark Magic is an incredibly powerful form of witchcraft that draws on malevolent powers.Black magic is a belief system that is not supported by scientific evidence. However, psychologists and neuroscientists have studied magic to understand how it affects people’s perceptions and beliefs. Regardless of the path forward, the study and understanding of black magic will undoubtedly remain a subject of enduring fascination and scholarly inquiry.
    Thank you Rinpoche for this 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
