I spoke about Death Meditation in more detail

Apr 1, 2010 Our Kechara House’s signboard… (By Tsem Rinpoche) Last night Kechara House was having a wonderful Dzambala Puja where 100,000 mantras were recited. Many people have learned to do the Dzambala water offering practice and are very enthusiastic about it. Having seen them on, I decided on a last minute to go...

Don’t get infected by Buddhists??

Don’t get infected by Buddhists??

Dear friends, Can you believe this. So many things here are just so wrong in this article. Segregating people due to religion and religious superiority are both very damaging and takes us further away from world peace. No one’s religion is superior  to another and all are equal. We must respect all religions. Do...

Profound Patsy

Profound Patsy

  I will heed Rinpoche’s advice: “Control the anger till there is nothing to control. You can control your food intake, walking, urinating, defecating, spending, entertainment so why not anger”. All of us except the holy attained Masters have anger. I used to get upset and angry when my expectations were not met, but...

Do you want to hear the truth?

Some people spend their time helping others, taking care of others, assisting others, spending for others. They use their mind, intelligence, time, care, resourcefulness and abilities to help others. THIS IS AMAZING. They do it without wanting credit and give credit away. These people have found the magic alchemy of life. The elixir that...

Hecate

Dear friends, I have always been interested in Greek Gods, Goddesses as well as the Egyptian pantheon. It is interesting in every culture they have gods and goddesses and they seem to be described doing the same things in their ethereal heavenly worlds. They remind me greatly of Buddha’s description of the six realms...

High & Low | 能屈能伸

(译文请往下阅读) This monk can sit on clean high throne teaching the Dharma and conferring the Highest Yoga Tantra initiation, he can also sit on dirty low street walkway giving money and food to the homeless. 能屈能伸,此乃大丈夫也。这位僧人可以坐在干净的高法座上教导佛法,授予无上瑜伽灌顶;也可以坐在马路旁又低又肮脏的地上给流浪汉送钱和食物。

6 Signs You Need A Retreat – Pronto!

  Ever felt like you needed a break? All that you hear is the nagging from your mother (in-law), nagging from your boss, nagging from your spouse. All. Day. Every. Day. Phone notification’s ringing, cars honking, people gossiping… and if you’re a parent, baby’s crying and screaming. Yes, it’s all part of life....

What’s in Rinpoche’s warehouse? | 仁波切的仓库有什么?

(译文请往下阅读) This is a warehouse full of Buddhist and non-Buddhist items, it is huge, but it is not the merchandise for any online shop, these are GIFTS, to be given out for free, these are His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche’s gifts to the world. Tsem Rinpoche first came to Malaysia 23 years ago, with only two suitcases of his monk robes, toiletries, Dharma books, and some protection chakras and talisman to give away to people, that’s all, no sponsor, no friends, no …students, no nothing. But Rinpoche has Dharma knowledge, kindness and c...

How to set up altar, make offerings, prostrate to the Buddha, meditate etc. | 如何设置佛坛、供养、礼拜、静坐等

(译文请往下阅读)   (By Tsem Rinpoche) It is a universal truth that all beings seek fulfillment and happiness in their lives. The Buddha taught and embodied this truth and hence many find solace in his teachings and his image. That is why for Buddhists, setting up an altar to the Buddha is of paramount importance for their spiritual practice. An altar to the Buddha is the focal point from which one ushers in fulfillment, happiness and wealth into their homes and lives. This video guide explains in a clear and modern way how to set up an altar to a...

Amongst White Clouds – Amazing!

Dear friends, I just completed watching an incredibly inspiring documentary on the hermit monks/nuns in Zhongnan Mountains of modern day China called “Amongst White Clouds” by Edward A. Burger – a 2005 film. Buddhism has been very strong for thousands of years in China and I thought perhaps during the Cultural Revolution coupled with the onslaught...

Supreme Contemplation

Dec 3, 2014
Supreme Contemplation

(By Tsem Rinpoche) There are many reasons why the topic of death and impermanence are particularly emphasized in Tibetan Buddhist teachings. For those who lack understanding, the contemplation of death may seem morbid. However, for pure practitioners the consistent contemplation of death gradually result in positive outcomes. There are many motivational speakers today who center...

Application

What is interesting is when we learn the dharma and we don’t consistently apply it we wonder why we don’t change and after a few years feel disheartened? Change is what will motivate us to reach higher achievements within dharma. It empowers us to want to achieve more as we can see results within...

Something easy to do daily yet powerful…

(By Tsem Rinpoche) People have asked me thousands of times what practice should they do daily. They are busy, pressured for time and have heavy commitments. I understand. I sympathize that with so little time, they are sincere enough to connect with something higher daily. Perhaps for sanity’s sake or perhaps from realizations that...

Gangloma

Gangloma

According to Kyabje Trijang Dorje Chang, the Praise to Manjushri (Gang-lo-ma) was composed by 100 Indian Mahasiddhas who had gathered together in praise of Manjushri. Each Mahasiddha recited separately in veneration of Manjushri, who at that time blessed their minds. Ninety-nine of them wrote the same praise, which together became known as Gang-lo-ma. The...

Being one with your yidam

(By Tsem Rinpoche) There are awakened forces out there who we call Buddhas that are fully free of ignorance and all that comes as part and parcel of ignorance. Who are in touch with themselves and see directly all phenomena as they really are. Hence nothing in existence is unseen to them. Who have eliminated...

Be Patient

Give the room a chance to answer you. Patience is a virtue. And if after awhile, people don't respond, perhaps they don't know the answer or they did not see your question. Do ask again or address someone directly. Do not be offended if people do not or are unable to respond to you.

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.
