SUMMARY:Teachings on the Upasaka and Novice Vows
DESCRIPTION:On September 15 (Thu)\, His Eminence Kensur Rinpoche Jetsun Lobsang Phende will be giving a 1-day explanation on the Upasaka (Layman) and Sramanera (Novice) vows. This teaching is given:  \n\nFor our sangha-to-be who will be ordained as novice monks and nuns soon.\nFor anyone who is considering ordination in the future.\nFor anyone who is interested to take the vows of a lay Buddhist. (Click here for the upcoming Upasaka vows ceremony)\n\nEvent Details\n\nSept 15\, 2022 (Thu)\n9.30 am – 12.30 pm\nOnline (Zoom)\nFree admission\, please register here.\n\nRegistration closes Sept 14 (Wed)\, 12.00 pm (GMT +8). \n(OPEN TO KECHARA MEMBERS / KECHARA FRIENDS ONLY) \nThe Upasaka Vows\nThe Sanskrit term Upasaka refers to Buddhist practitioners who are not monks\, nuns or novices\, and who hold the five lay vows or Five Precepts: \n\nTo refrain from killing.\nTo refrain from stealing.\nTo refrain from false speech.\nTo refrain from sexual misconduct.\nTo refrain from using intoxicants.\n\nIn general\, the Upasaka vows can be taken all at once or individually\, and for a lifetime or a self-determined period of time. A lay disciple who holds all 5 lay vows is also known as Genyen in Tibetan\, literally meaning “pursuer of virtue.” \nThe Novice Vows\nThe Five Precepts are part of the wider set of Pratimoksha (Self-Liberation) Vows that are practised in Buddhism. The Pratimoksha vows comprise mainly of the vows of monastic discipline which descended directly from Buddha Shakyamuni. \n\nNovice monks and nuns take 36 vows. They are known as Getsul (monk) or Getsulma (nun) in Tibetan and Sramanera (monk) or Sramenerika (nun) in Sanskrit.\nA fully-ordained monk (bhikshu or gelong) holds 253 vows while a fully-ordained nun (bhikshuni or gelongma) holds 364 vows within our ordination tradition.\n\nAll these vows are contained in the Vinaya\, the collection of Buddha’s teachings on monastic discipline. \nBenefits of Taking Vows\nThe taking and upholding of vows is an essential Buddhist practice. It instils spiritual discipline which helps you develop mindfulness of how you conduct yourself on a daily basis. \nIn addition\, every day that you uphold your vows\, you collect merits and purify negative karma. This helps you progress on your spiritual path through transformation of the mind. \nBy attending this teaching\, you will not only gain knowledge but receive the seeds or karmic causes to take the vows and hold them well in the future. \nWho can attend\n\nThe teaching is open to all Kechara Members and Kechara Friends who are interested to learn more about Buddhist vows.\nYou are encouraged to attend if you aspire to take the upasaka or novice vows in the future.\nThe teaching is compulsory if you wish to receive the upasaka vows from H.E. Kensur Rinpoche on Oct 8.\n\nAbout H.E. Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Phende\nHis Eminence Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Phende studied at the feet of some of the greatest lineage masters of our tradition — H.H. Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche\, H.H. Kyabje Zong Rinpoche and H.E. Kyabje Zemey Rinpoche. He was the lead chanter (umze) of Gaden Shartse Monastery and later became the courageous first abbot of Shar Gaden Monastery. \n  \nAfter retiring from this esteemed position\, Kensur Rinpoche has visited Kechara on multiple occasions\, the first being in 2017 at the request of H.E. Tsem Rinpoche.

SUMMARY:Rabney ChenmoStupa Consecration Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:On September 4\, 2019\, our beloved spiritual teacher and founder\, His Eminence the 25th Tsem Rinpoche\, entered clear light. Almost three years later\, after overcoming tremendous obstacles\, we have finally completed the second of two Relic Stupas that were advised by Rinpoche himself prior to his parinirvana. \nThe indoor Relic Stupa was completed in September 2020\, just in time for Rinpoche’s first parinirvana anniversary. However\, it took two more years to complete the outdoor Relic Stupa due to complications that arose directly from the pandemic. It is believed that such obstacles are a manifestation of our negative karma and broken commitments. \nNevertheless\, the patience\, hard work and fortitude of all who were involved in the project paid off. Tremendous amounts of negative karma\, obscurations and broken commitments were purified\, and great merits were accumulated in the process of creating our lama’s stupa. \nA large auspicious halo appeared around the sun on July 9\, 2022 as we started to install the golden ornaments on the Relic Stupa.\nThe completion of the two stupas has tremendous spiritual significance because it means that the prerequisites for finding Rinpoche’s incarnation have been fulfilled\, and that the actual search for Rinpoche’s incarnation can officially begin from hereon. \nThe stupas will also have a great impact on the future success of Kechara in benefiting others and proliferating the teachings\, as they are a powerful source of Rinpoche’s blessings along with the blessings of our lineage masters. \nHigh lamas\, senior monks and monastic representatives have been specially invited to conduct a Rabney Chenmo ceremony to consecrate the Relic Stupas as well as the Tulku Drakpa Gyaltsen Stupa and the 24 statues of our lama’s previous lives in the Tsem Rinpoche Relic Temple. \nThe ceremony will be performed by visiting Sangha from Shar Gaden\, Serpom\, Phelgyeling and Segyu monasteries\, and led by His Eminence Kensur Rinpoche Jetsun Lobsang Phende and other high lamas\, esteemed geshes and senior monks of our tradition. \nEvent Details\n\nSep 16 – 18\, 2022 (Fri – Sun)\nKechara Forest Retreat\nFree admission. RSVP here as seating is limited.\n\nProgramme\nDay 1: Sept 16 (Friday) \n\n6.00 am Session 1\n9.30 am Break\n10.00 am Session 2\n12.00 pm Lunch\n3.00 pm Session 3\n5.00 pm End\n\nDay 2: Sept 17 (Saturday) \n\n5.00 am Session 1\n9.00 am Break\n10.00 am Session 2\n12.00 pm Lunch\n1.00 pm Session 3\n2.00 pm Fire puja\n5.00 pm Session 4\n7.00 pm End\n\nDay 3: Sept 18 (Sunday) \n\n6.00 am Session 1\n9.30 am Break\n10.00 am Session 2\n12.00 pm Lunch\n3.00 pm Fire puja\n6.00 pm End\n\n\n Reciting the King of Prayers on July 10\, 2022 to dedicate merits to everyone who contributed towards the successful completion of the Relic Stupa and Temple.\nRabney Chenmo means great consecration puja. It is an elaborate 3-day ceremony involving numerous sensory offerings\, torma ritual cakes\, multiple fire pujas\, traditional mirror\, and various other implements. \nBased on the 13-deity Yamantaka practice\, this complex ritual forges a powerful connection with the wisdom energies of Tsem Rinpoche\, the lineage lamas\, Buddhas\, bodhisattvas\, arhats\, Dharma Protectors\, dakas and dakinis through the power of mantra\, concentration\, visualisation and offerings. \nUpon completion of the consecration ceremony\, the blessings of these enlightened beings are sealed — in not just the stupas and statues\, but also in the immediate surroundings so that all who pass by receive tremendous blessings and purification. \n\n The Relic Stupa was unveiled on August 1\, 2022 on the auspicious day of Chokhor Duchen — Buddha’s first turning of the Dharma Wheel.\nBenefits for sponsors and attendees\n\nPurifies tremendous negative karma\nPurifies obscurations especially in relations to broken spiritual commitments (samaya)\nIncreases wisdom\nIncreases merits\nImproves the connection and affinity with one’s lama and the Dharma in general\nImproves inner stability\, mental clarity and awareness\nRenews physical and inner peace\nRe-balances emotions\n\n\n On July 7\, 2022\, we invited H.E. Tsem Rinpoche’s holy relics to the Relic Stupa\, to be a source of tremendous blessings for everyone who visits this sacred site.\nHow you can participate\nAdmission to the puja is free and all are welcome to attend. If you are attending\, you may wish to offer kuyong (a token monetary offering) to the Sangha who will be conducting the puja. \nAs seating at the Relic Temple is limited\, please RSVP your attendance here. \nHow you can contribute\nWe seek your kind sponsorship to cover the costs of this and other pujas held in conjunction with Tsem Rinpoche’s Parinirvana Anniversary and Relic Stupa consecration ceremony. \n\nOrdinary sponsor: RM30\nSpecial sponsor: RM150\nBronze sponsor: RM300\nSilver sponsor: RM750\nGold sponsor: RM1\,500\nDiamond sponsor: RM3\,000\nGrand sponsor: RM5\,000\n\nMost pujas will be performed in Kechara Forest Retreat from mid-August to mid-October 2022.

These relics are now enshrined in the Relic Stupas at Kechara Forest Retreat. \nWatch the video from 7:25 to witness the discovery of the holy relics.

SUMMARY:White Tara Practice + Tenshug Long Life Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, 25th September 2022 for a morning of life-extending rituals calling upon the blessings of the healing and long life Buddhas. 		 \nEvent Details\n\nSep 25\, 2022 (Sun)\n7.00 am – 1.00 pm\nKechara Forest Retreat\nFree admission. RSVP here as seating is limited.\n\nProgramme\n\n7.00 am White Tara long life practice + mantra chanting\n9.00 am Break\n10.00 am Tenshug long life ceremony\n1.00 pm Lunch\n3.00 pm Medicine Buddha puja + mantra chanting (click for details)\n5.00 pm End\n\n		These prayer ceremonies are dedicated:		 \n\nFor the long life of H.E. Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Phende.\nFor H.E. Tsem Rinpoche’s new incarnation to have long life and manifest great Dharma activities just like in his previous lives.\nFor the long life and good health of all members\, supporters and attendees.\n\nAn erudite master\nEducated in the original Gaden Shartse Monastery in Tibet\, His Eminence Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Phende was just 12 years old when he received his novice vows from one of the greatest masters of our time\, His Holiness Kyabje Zong Rinpoche. \nLater\, as the first abbot of Shar Gaden Monastery\, Kensur Rinpoche became widely credited for the crucial role he played in keeping the lineage and practice of Dorje Shugden alive. Our founder\, His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche\, often spoke of his deep respect and affection for Kensur Rinpoche\, not only for the purity of his monkhood but for his willingness and bravery to lead over 600 monks during a time of great obstacles and uncertainty. \nA worrying development\n		Lately\, this holy master has been manifesting ill health which is no coincidence or accident. Lamas of Kensur Rinpoche’s calibre have full control over their birth and passing. They manifest solely for the benefit of sentient beings and when the karmic causes for that benefit begin to wane\, they can choose to enter clear light and take rebirth in a younger\, newer form in order to continue their work under more suitable conditions.		 \nA disciple’s responsibility\nDuring this degenerate age\, lamas of Kensur Rinpoche’s generation\, traditionally trained and pure in practice\, are far and few in between. Their knowledge and attainments are a precious healing resource sorely needed in a world full of anger\, pain and suffering. \nThus as practitioners and supporters of the lineage\, it is our responsibility to keep creating the causes for these rare beings to remain with us. One such method is by offering a Tenshug Long Life Ceremony. During a tenshug\, students make fervent requests to the lama to remain longer with us. If the lama accepts the tenshug\, he will extend his life in order to continue turning the wheel of Dharma. \nA powerful offering​\nAfter repeated requests by representatives of Tsem Ladrang\, Kechara and the visiting Sangha at Kechara Forest Retreat\, Kensur Rinpoche has humbly accepted an offering of a Tenshug Long Life Ceremony. \nThis auspicious ritual will be performed by representatives from the main monasteries of our lineage\, including Shar Gaden\, Serpom\, Phegyeling and Segyu\, and they will be joined by qualified lamas and geshes from Europe\, North America and Asia. \nBenefits for sponsors and attendees\n\nExtends lifespan\nAverts life-threatening obstacles\nIncreases the efficacy of medicines and medical treatment\nStrengthens the connection to the guru + lineage lamas\nCreates causes for the lama to remain\nCreates causes for Dharma to grow\nContinuous stream of merits as a result of the lama’s on-going activities\n\nHow you can participate\nAdmission to the puja is free and all are welcome to attend. If you are attending\, you can actively participate in the ceremony by making a personal tenshug offering to H.E. Kensur Rinpoche. \nHere are some suggestions of what you can offer based on Tibetan Buddhist tradition: \n\nBody\, speech or mind representations of healing\, long life or increase e.g. images\, statues\, pendants\, scriptures\, books or stupas related to long life Buddhas such as Amitayus\, White Tara\, Namgyalma\, Medicine Buddha\, Shize\, Gyenze\, etc.\nBody\, speech\, mind representations based on the lama’s personal practices e.g. images\, statues\, pendants\, scriptures\, books or stupas relating to Lama Tsongkhapa\, Vajrayogini\, Manjushri\, Dorje Shugden\, and many other deities.\nAuspicious items e.g. the Eight Auspicious Signs\, the Seven Royal Emblems\, the Eight Auspicious Substances\, mandalas and other auspicious symbols of abundance and growth such as butter\, rice\, tea\, fruits\, flowers\, jewels\, precious stones\, etc.\nSymbolic representations of Dharma activities e.g. thrones\, seats\, throne brocades\, carpets\, robes\, ceremonial hats\, ritual implements\, offering vessels\, offering items\, etc.\nDirect contributions towards Kensur Rinpoche’s health e.g. medical care\, medicines\, supplements\, healthy foods/beverages\, medical equipment and so on. It is important that these items are suitable for Kensur Rinpoche’s health condition. For this reason\, it is recommended to donate towards items pre-approved by his medical care team.\nOfferings of practice and transformation e.g. taking vows\, committing to a retreat\, going vegetarian\, saving lives\, making a promise to abandon negative habits for a period of time\, etc.\n\nWhat to bring\n\nKhatas\nMinimum: 2x for Tsem Rinpoche and Kensur Rinpoche\, or 5x for all high lamas. \n\nKuyong\nMinimum: 2x for Tsem Rinpoche and Kensur Rinpoche\, or 22x for all monks. \n\n\nPersonal tenshug offering \n\nOptional but recommended.\nYou will have the opportunity to present your personal offering to Kensur Rinpoche as part of the tenshug puja.\nThis can be a physical item based on the suggestions provided\, or a donation towards Kensur Rinpoche’s medical needs.\nIf you wish to make a donation\, bring it with you and offer it during the ceremony. Please write how you wish your donation to be used so we can allocate it correctly.\nPhysical offerings should be presented with a khata OR beautifully decorated to the best of your ability.\nIf you are not able to attend in person\, we can present your offerings on your behalf. Please contact us at wa.me/60103020999 for details.\n\n\n\nYou can also contribute towards the costs of the tenshug ceremony via the Tsem Rinpoche Parinirvana Anniversary Fund. Donate online at VajraSecrets.com or WhatsApp us at wa.me/60103020999. Any amount is welcome and deeply appreciated. \nTogether\, let’s create the oceans of merits needed so we can continue our direct connection with this holy being.

SUMMARY:Dorje Shugden Trance
DESCRIPTION:Within Tibetan Buddhism\, there is a tradition of specially trained holy beings who take trance of enlightened deities to offer advice\, blessings and instructions. \nFor over three decades\, our founder H.E. Tsem Rinpoche consulted the Dharma Protector Dorje Shugden via many such special beings including the Ven. Choyang Duldzin Oracle of Gaden Monastery\, and in more recent times\, the Ven. 7th Panglung Oracle of Sera Monastery. \nSince Rinpoche entered parinirvana in 2019\, we have continued this tradition of consulting Dorje Shugden via the Panglung Oracle for guidance on important decisions for Kechara’s growth and future. This includes precious advice on how to purify our karma and collect merits\, to fuel the search for the reincarnation of our beloved spiritual guide. \nThe Panglung Oracles\nThe Panglung line of oracles is renowned for their incredibly accurate trances of Dharma Protectors such as Dorje Shugden and Kache Marpo. It was the previous 6th Panglung Oracle who\, in trance of Dorje Shugden\, guided H.H. the Dalai Lama to leave Tibet for safety in exile in India.\nThe current 7th Panglung Oracle inherited this ability from his father\, and was directly trained by the holiest of holy teachers\, H.H. Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche.\n		On Oct 5 (Wed)\, join us for a trance of our Protector Dorje Shugden via the Ven. 7th Panglung Oracle. The last public trance in Kechara Forest Retreat was in 2015\, so this is an incredibly rare opportunity to be in Dorje Shugden’s presence and to directly receive his blessings for protection\, healing\, and positive energy.		 \nEvent Details\n\nOct 5\, 2022 (Wed)\n9.00 am – 12.00 pm\nWisdom Hall\, Kechara Forest Retreat\nFree admission. Registration required.\n\nThe trance is open to registered guests only\, and Kechara Forest Retreat will be closed to walk-in visitors on the day. \n\nRegistration for members (priority seats) opens 29 Sept\, 9.00 am (GMT +8). Members will receive the link to the registration portal via email and the Kechara member app.\nRegistration for the general public opens 1 Oct\, 9.00 am (GMT +8). The link to the registration portal will be published in the Kecharians & Friends Facebook group.\n\nAll attendees will also receive some blessed protector rice and a protector string to bring home. \nImportant Note\n\nSeating is limited and registration closes once all seats are taken up. Register early to avoid disappointment\, and have your Kechara membership number ready if you are registering for a priority member seat.\nPriority member seating is for Kechara members only. Please ensure your membership is valid and renewed to avoid disappointment. Member seats are not transferable to non-members.\nEach Kechara member is entitled to one priority member seat only. If you have non-members in your party (e.g. children) and you want to sit together\, please register for the public seats instead.\nSeating is first come first served. Doors open at 6.30 am so please come early to get a good seat.\nHave your tickets ready for inspection. All guests must show a valid ticket before you can enter the parking area. Unregistered visitors will be asked to leave the premises.\nDuplicate tickets will be rejected. To avoid disappointment\, don’t share your ticket details with anyone.\nParking spaces are limited. We suggest that you carpool where possible to avoid congestion.\nWear comfortable shoes. It takes 10-15 minutes to walk from the parking area to the registration counter and Wisdom Hall\, so comfortable footwear is essential.\nDon’t be late. Entry to Kechara Forest Retreat closes at 8.30 am\, and Wisdom Hall doors close at 8.50 am. Latecomers will be denied entry\, so come early to avoid disappointment.\nRecording devices are not allowed. A bag check will be conducted at the entrance and you are required to surrender your phones\, tablets\, cameras and other recording devices at the registration counter. Alternatively\, you may opt to leave your devices in your car.\nPrint out your ticket for quicker processing. This will also allow you to leave your phone in your car instead of checking it in at the registration counter.\nThere will be no individual blessing. A trance exerts tremendous strain on the oracle’s body\, and the Ven. Panglung Oracle is advancing in age. To reduce the duration of the trance\, a general blessing will be done for all guests instead. If you wish to request an individual blessing due to serious/terminal illness or old age (> 70 years old)\, you can apply via wa.me/60103020999 with details of your condition.\nThere will be no blessing of personal items. Again\, this is due to limitations of time and strain on the oracle’s body.\nChildren are allowed to attend the trance. If you require a seat for your child\, they must have a valid ticket. Noisy children will be asked to leave the hall.\nObserve the dress code. Please wear below-the-knee trousers\, skirts\, dresses\, long-loose tops\, t-shirts\, shirts\, etc. No tight-fitting\, see-through\, revealing attire.

SUMMARY:Lamrim Prayer Oral Transmission
DESCRIPTION:On 6th October 2022 (Thursday)\, His Eminence Kensur Rinpoche Jetsun Lobsang Phende\, the esteemed abbot emeritus of Shar Gaden Monastery\, will be giving the sacred oral transmission of the Lamrim prayer titled An Ornament for the Throats of the Fortunate. \nThis oral transmission was formally requested by Tsem Ladrang (the private office of His Eminence Tsem Rinpoche) to support your study of the Lamrim and to aid your spiritual progress. \nEvent Details\n\nOct 6\, 2022 (Thu)\n10.00 am – 12.30 pm\nKechara Forest Retreat\nFree admission\, please RSVP here.\n\nBenefits for attendees\nAccording to Tibetan Buddhist tradition\, most serious practitioners request oral transmissions of the texts they are studying. An oral transmission plants the blessings of the text being transmitted in the mindstreams of the people in attendance. These blessings help us transform our knowledge into actual practice\, and eventually fruition into realisations and attainments. \nIn the case of this Lamrim prayer\, the oral transmission bestows blessings stemming from the original author and the great lineage masters who came after him. This is so that our Lamrim preparatory practices are empowered\, successful and will bear results. \nIt also blesses our mindstream with the powerful potential to understand\, realise and practise the Lamrim successfully. Therefore\, it is highly recommended for anyone who is striving to learn and practise the Lamrim\, and for those who teach the Lamrim. \nThe Lamrim prayer and preparatory practices\nThe Lamrim prayer titled An Ornament for the Throats of the Fortunate was composed by Jampel Lhundrub of Dagpo\, a great lamrim lineage master who was one of H.H. Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche’s principal teachers. This prayer was highly recommended by Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche as it contains an extensive recitation encompassing the entire Lamrim preparatory practices. It is extensive\, powerful and has many blessings. \nThe translation of this prayer can be found at the back of Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche’s Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand. The oral transmission is the auspicious recitation of this text by the lama\, His Eminence Kensur Rinpoche Jetsun Lobsang Phende\, to plant powerful blessings of this prayer in the mindstreams of all present. \nThe Lamrim preparatory practices are meant to set a virtuous motivation\, purify obscurations\, accumulate merits and invoke the blessings of the lineage masters before entering into a formal meditation session on the Lamrim topics. If the preparatory practices are done well\, it ensures that our study and meditation on the Lamrim results in a steady stream of blessings and attainments. \nThe Six Lamrim Preparatory Practices\n\nCleaning your room and arranging the symbols of enlightened body\, speech and mind.\nObtaining offerings without deceit and arranging them beautifully.\nAdopting the seven-featured sitting position of Vairochana on a comfortable seat\, after which you take refuge\, develop bodhichitta\, and so on\, while “in an especially virtuous frame of mind.”\nPetitioning the merit field.\nOffering the seven-limbed prayer and a world mandala — practices that contain all the key points of accumulation of merit and self-purification.\nFurther petitions\, which follow oral Lamrim instructions\, made in order to further transform our mind.\n\nAbout H.E. Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Phende\nHis Eminence Kensur Rinpoche Lobsang Phende studied at the feet of some of the greatest lineage masters of our tradition — H.H. Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche\, H.H. Kyabje Zong Rinpoche and H.E. Kyabje Zemey Rinpoche. He was the lead chanter (umze) of Gaden Shartse Monastery and later became the courageous first abbot of Shar Gaden Monastery. \nAfter retiring from this esteemed position\, Kensur Rinpoche has visited Kechara on multiple occasions\, the first being in 2017 at the request of H.E. Tsem Rinpoche. \nPrerequisites and commitments\nThere are no pre-requisites to receive this oral transmission. Anyone can attend and admission is free. If you are attending\, you may wish to offer kuyong (a token monetary offering) to Kensur Rinpoche who will be giving the transmission. \nThere are no commitments after you receive the oral transmission. However\, we encourage you to start learning the Lamrim if you haven’t begun yet. And if you are already studying the Lamrim\, we encourage you to begin formal meditation on the Lamrim topics as you have now received the seeds for spiritual success. \nTo ensure we have enough seating for all guests\, please RSVP your attendance here.

Of these\, some of the most well-known include the founding of the Three Pillars of the Gelugpa tradition — Gaden\, Sera and Drepung Monasteries\, establishing the Great Prayer Festival (Monlam Chenmo) in 1409\, and composing the Lamrim Chenmo — The Great Exposition of the Stages of the Path. \nKnown as the Second Buddha of our fortunate time\, this great saint led a life of the highest ethics\, held his vows perfectly and was instrumental in the revival of Buddha’s teachings that were deteriorating during that period of time. At the age of 63\, Lama Tsongkhapa entered into Samadhi meditation\, made extensive inner offerings and then stopped his breath. Many witnessed his body transform to that of a 16-year-old\, with rainbow lights emitting from it. These signs are all hallmarks of an extraordinary being’s parinirvana. \nSo join us on December 18 (Sunday) to celebrate Tsongkhapa Day and take the opportunity to generate tremendous merits for yourself and others. To learn more about our Tsongkhapa Day offering service and to pre-order your package\, get in touch with us at +6010 3020 999 (WhatsApp only) or visit our online partner VajraSecrets.com. \nAvailable until 18 December\, 2.00 pm (GMT+8).\nIf you’re a Kechara Member or Kechara Friend\, you can collect reward points for your Tsongkhapa Day offerings. \nimg gallery
