Worldwide Live Release for October 21, 2010

Digital Tibetan Buddhist Altar has organized the live recover of sentient beings all over the world, to be achieved upon October 21, 2010. So far, we have already received commitments from India, Australia, Singapore, Greece, Canada, as well as multiform American states.
That's the great beginning, though it is not enough.
If we suffer this site -- as well as we know many of we do, since we have multiform thousand repeat visitors each day -- afterwards please, please, please....... greatfully participate in this event, even if it usually involves the single being.
As the on top of print of Yangsi Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche illustrates, we do not need blow up preparations, nor do we need to know blow up ceremony. Just take the little critters who have been differently destined to die, as well as set them giveaway where they won't be harmed. You can set birds giveaway to the sky or acquatic creatures giveaway to lakes, rivers, or oceans. You can get insects, who would differently be used as bait, as well as set them giveaway in the forest. If we want to chant something whilst we do this, afterwards recite Om Mani Padme Hum, or the Medicine Buddha mantra.
No make the difference who we are, no make the difference where we are, no make the difference what --- we have been asking we to participate to the most appropriate of your ability, upon October 21, 2010.
-o-*/o\*/o\*-o- The Benefits of Saving LivesChatral Rinpoche

I crawl down before the Lama, Buddha Amitayus,

And the bodhisattvas in training.

I shall now in short describe the benefits

Of pardon animals as well as ransoming their lives.


To save animals from slaughter or any mortal danger,

With an wholly pristine motivation as well as conduct,

Is without disbelief the use to be taken up

By all followers of th! e Buddha Shakyamuni.

Many sutras, tantras as well as commentaries

Describe in item the advantages it brings,

And countless schooled as well as achieved masters of India as well as Tibet

Have stressed the value as well as importance of benefitting beings.

Even in the basic car the single avoids inflicting harm upon others,

In the mahayana this is the very precision of the bodhisattva,

And in the tip mantra, the principal samaya of the ratna family.

The logic behind this is as follows: in this world,

Nothing is as dear to someone as his or her own life,

So no greater crime is there than taking hold up away,

And no conditioned virtue brings greater consequence

Than the act of saving beings as well as ransoming their lives.

Therefore, should we instruct for happiness as well as good,

Exert yourself in this, the most supreme of paths,

Which is proven by scriptures as well as by reasoning,

And is giveaway of obstacles as well as intensity dangers.

Consider your own physique as well as with this as an example,

Avoid we do anything which competence bring harm to others.

Make each effort not to kill any vital creature,

Birds, fish, deer, cattle as well as even tiny insects,

And essay instead to save their lives,

Offering them insurance from each fear.

The benefit of we do so is beyond imagining.

This is the most appropriate use for your own longevity,

And the biggest protocol for the vital or deceased.

It is my categorical use of benefitting others.

It dispels all outmost as well as internal grief as well as obstacles,

Effortlessly as well as spontaneously, it brings favourable conditions,

And, when inspired by the eminent mind of bodhichitta as well as

Completed with loyalty as well as pristine aspiration prayers,

It will lead the single to complete enlightenment,

And ! the acco mplishment of ones own as well as others welfare

Of this we need have no doubts at all!

Those whose minds slip to virtue as well as acts of merit,

Should prohibit hunting as well as fishing upon their land.

Some birds, in particular, such as geese as well as cranes,

Are impelled by their karma to migrate

And fly south in autumn, north in spring.

At times, sap from the efforts of their flight,

Or having mislaid their way, the little have been forced to land,

Distressed, fearful as well as anxious; when this happens,

You should not throw stones or shoot at them,

Nor try to kill them or do them any harm,

But protect them so they may simply fly once more.

To suggest care as well as affection to sentient beings

In desperate situations who miss insurance

Brings only as most consequence as the meditation

On emptiness with compassion as the core

So it has been said by stately Lord Atisha.

Lamas, officials, monks, nuns, group as well as women,

In all the places over which we have control,

Exert each change as well as do all inside of your energy

To recover animals as well as ransom their lives,

While enlivening others to do the same.

In all those places where this is done,

Sickness between people as well as stock will cease,

Harvests will be abundant as well as hold up will be long.

All will suffer happiness as well as wellbeing in abundance,

And at death let go of deluded experience,

Before anticipating an excellent rebirth inside of the aloft realms.

Ultimately, there is no disbelief which this will lead the single simply

To find the supreme as well as perfect state of awakening.



In response to the ask of Doctor Dordrak,

Who offered the pristine silk scarf as well as the hundred Nepali rupees,

The the single called Chatral Sangye Dorje,
W ho strives invariably to ransom lives,

Wrote down casually whatever came to mind.

By the consequence of this may all sentient beings

Come to practise cordial actions!

Mamakoling samanta!
