Life Lesson (3)
Last night i was
talking to a friend in Penang who is helping to coordinate the coming Naga
Puja-Vajrasattva Tsok & Vajrasattva Empowerment (2 days Puja).
I commented to
her that there is a 3-day puja going on (4-6/8/12?) in KL at a stadium, their
poster designed put "Dzogchen Monaster" (no indication of India or
China) besides the big picture of that Teacher (with due respect). It is really
a real conflict of interest in worldly sense - as Kunde Rinpoche & Khenpo
Kunga Tashi Rinpoche have been trying very hard to help rasing funding for the
buildling the new Library at Dzogcehen Monastery India (under construction), to
be fair, i like to honestly suggest that the local organization who organized these three days
Buddhist Puja to donate the net proceeds of public donations to "Dzogchen
Monastery" (India or China) for such 'mis-representated information' (which may arise & cause any confusion?). i was rather shocked that local organization
is not aware of 'intellectual property rights' even it is just the name being
used not any image.
Last night,
before i went to sleep, i thought this issue of 'mis-representation' could not be forever being 'blurred' - with good intention,
tomorrow is Lunar Calander 6th month 19, the Mahayana Buddhist believe is
Avalokitesvara (Kwan Yin) enlightenment day (?) - i did my evening prayers and mentally thought that if that
teacher's claimed on the related website (from Taiwan?) of re-incarnation of
Avalokitesvara is not true, then today their Puja would be raining. As i was
writing this post as at 2.50p.m. - it is really raining (quite heavy!) - as my own
act of Truth!
Not long ago, i
asked Kunde Rinpoche of the recent heavily pasted posters of a 'god' at Pudu
area that brought fears to many concerned Buddhists why was it regarded
'banned' in the Vajrayana tradition? (recently someone name 'Lobsang Dorjee'
posted some distored pictures of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama at the
facebook, many people did not know and clicked 'like'!).
I was informed of
this true story happened in somewhere China, a practitioner who held a big
empowerment puja, thousands of Buddhist practitioners went there to attend, but
before the event started, the teacher who announced that those who pay homage
to the Sakyamuni Buddha & Guru Rinpoche should not attend that ceremony,
many thousands pratitioners left on the spot, left about a thousand or so. Then
that teacher sat up his special seat, before he could start the ceremony, suddenly
hails stones dropped from the sky & hit on him and the wind blown the
pillar of the camp off - fell on him & injured!(punishment from sky?). 2 weeks later (?), that man who cursed
the Buddha & Guru Rinpoche but using the rituals of Vajrayana Buddhism died in a strange way (to be specific for that case- immediate Karma?) !!! - this is a real life
lesson for all who did not respect
the historical Buddha & Guru Rinpoche but instead using their teachings in
deviated ways!
