Eight Verses of Thought Transformation (6 of 12)

Tsem Tulku Rinpoche's VERY IMPORTANT teaching given in 1998.

The heart of Buddhist wisdom in eight short verses, elucidated by a fearless pioneer of contemporary Dharma.

Unconditional love and freedom are here and now if we let go of self-centred obsession and let ourselves be embraced by WHAT IS.

The very life we are living, with all its difficulties, failures and frustrations, can be the road to liberation. The world can be our school of transformation. Everybody becomes our best friend. We become our own best friend.

Deeper and deeper, from learning to cherish all beings as precious, to realising that those we perceived as enemies are our supreme teachers, the teachings in this book take us, into our innermost heart where we discover that we are the light we have been longing for.

There are a few stores which I have noticed have gone through change of names & signboards? For example the shop in Bangsar that was called Kechara Mystical Treasures. It is now Kechara Paradise.

I love your outlets! I recently visited Sunway Pyramid and saw that you are going to have another store there!!!!! All the best to you Kechara Paradise. Err, any chance you are going to open any store in Singapore? Ok, may be I am asking for too much

It is if the motivation was for our own financial gain, and out of disrespect. But if our sincere wish is to expose more people to Buddhism and its practices, it can be a virtuous act.

Newvision90: Thanks for sharing the brief story about Lama Tsongkhapa here. He's a enlighten buddha, and he's the founder of Gaden Monastery in Tibet earlier days.......by practising Lama Tsongkhapa, we gain wisdom to understand Dharma, Compassion heart to every beings, and also protection against all evil spirits.......

Lama Tsongkhapa was a Brahmin boy during Buddhas time and he offered Buddha Shakyamuni a crystal rosary , and Buddha Shakyamuni placed his golden hands on Lama Tsongkhapas head predicted that Lama Tsongkhapa will spread the dharma far and wide in the land of the babarians and he will make the teachings pure again . Guru Rinpoche is known to have been one of Lama Tsongkhapas manifestation.

Throwing rice by the lamas it blesses the people who have been touched by the rice. Rice is very expensive in Tibet I would imagine just like tea used to be in Tibet as well. As it is probably very difficult to grow rice or tea in Tibet due to the geography and climate of the place.

The yellow hat is really cool , and it has one thousand strands which represent the 1000 buddhas of this fortunate aeon.

I just love the way Rinpoche and the monks chant its such a beautiful melody.

Rinpoche actually brought monks to Malaysia before how wonderful , hope he brings more Sangha to Malaysia over and over again .
