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

SUMMARY:The Three Principal Aspects of the Path: Renunciation
DESCRIPTION:Free yourself from unsatisfactory conditions\nThe Three Principal Aspects of the Path revolves around the topics of Renunciation\, Bodhicitta and Wisdom. Composed by Lama Tsongkhapa in poetic verse\, it contains the essence of Buddha’s complete teachings and is one of the most popular texts on the stages of the path to enlightenment. \n\nRenunciation – The determination to be freeRenunciation is the wish to be free from suffering and the state of cyclic rebirth. Without it\, we won’t have the drive to achieve higher states of consciousness and ultimately enlightenment.\nBodhicitta – The mind of EnlightenmentBodhicitta is the mindset to achieve complete enlightenment\, not just for ourselves but for all sentient beings too. It provides the fuel we need for lasting and all-encompassing spiritual transformation.\nWisdom – The correct view of emptinessThe realisation of emptiness is the key to achieving enlightenment. It’s the ability to perceive reality for how it really is\, without concepts\, preconceived ideas or judgements. In its highest form\, ultimate wisdom can only be realised based on and in conjunction with Renunciation & Bodhicitta.\n\nYou are invited to a free talk on the topic of Renunciation\, the first part of this essential teaching. Along with the Lamrim\, this is prerequisite study material for anyone aspiring to receive higher tantric initiations like Yamantaka and Vajra Yogini. \nEvent Details\n\nFeb 25\, 2023 (Sat)\n7.00 pm – 9.00 pm\nKechara Forest Retreat\, Bentong\nFree admission\, please register here.\n\nThis free talk is part of our Preparing for Tantra series. All talks will be held in-person at Kechara Forest Retreat. A good grounding in Buddhism is recommended for anyone who wishes to attend this series of talks.		 \nHistorical Origins\nThis seminal text was originally transmitted to Lama Tsongkhapa by the Bodhisattva Manjushri in a pure vision. In fact\, it was Manjushri who gave the name ‘Three Principal Aspects of the Path’ or Lam Gyi Tsowo Nam Sum to this set of teachings. \nLater on\, Tsako Ngawang Drakpa (an earlier incarnation of H.H. Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche) wrote to Lama Tsongkhapa from Eastern Tibet\, requesting advice on how to practise the Dharma. \nIn response to his request\, Lama Tsongkhapa transmitted the Three Principal Aspects of the Path to him. As the first person to receive these teachings\, Tsako Ngawang Drakpa’s name has since become synonymous with it. \nRecommended Reading\n\nThe Three Principal Aspects of the PathRoot text by Lama TsongkhapaClick here to read\nThe Principal Teachings of Buddhism by TsongkapaCommentary by Kyabje Pabongka RinpocheAvailable at Flea Market\nThe Essence of Tibetan BuddhismCommentary by Lama YesheClick here to read\nThe Three Principal Aspects of the PathCommentary by Geshe Sonam Rinchen\nThe Three Principles of the Path (Brief)Commentary by Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche\nThe Three Principles of the Path to Enlightenment by Je Tsong Khapa (Extensive)Commentary by Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche\nAudio: Three Principal PathsCommentary by H.H.
