With all this talk about the Grand Setrap and Dzambala Puja (GSDP), do you know why the puja has been organised? Chairman of the Organising Committee, Liaison Paul Yap, explained to Nanyang Siang Pau that GSDP was organised for Malaysians to connect with the Buddhas. Both practices are entirely authentic – Dzambala’s practice is very popular in Malaysia, and Setrap’s practice was brought from Gaden Shartse Monastery to Malaysia by His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche. As the wrathful emanation of Buddha Amitabha, Setrap has a particular affinity to Malaysians.
