To advance, to transpire, to transcent, through music, through space, from mountain to mountian, ocean to ocean, one night club to one religious retreat...
We enjoy heavenly pleasures and therefore avoid earthly ones. No worldly tumult is to be heard in heaven. All live in greatest peace. We lead angelic lives, yet have a merry time of it besides. We dance and we spring, We skip and we sing. Saint Peter in heaven looks on.
Posing as "Snow White" on the day of Dragon Boat Festival in the Sexiest City in Asia !
As I walk down the aisle,
there you are,
smiling eyes with embracing arms,
no matter what I had encountered,
I devote and bow myself
to your magnificent compassion;
I surrender to supreme power of wisdom,
manifesting
as pure as snow,
as translucent as white lotus,
I become you,
the Venerable White Tara.
The initiatory rites of White Tara are said to prolong the recipient's life, removing "diseases, sins obscurations, and untimely death."
Holy blessed Tara ,
May we all quickly attain the fruit of great enlightenment;
May the sufferings of all beings, infinite as space, quickly be exhausted;
May we attain the unobstructed strength to save the unsaved, rescue the unreduced,
Banish the sighs of the careworn, and place all beings in the stage of Nirvana.
May the holy Tara ever protect us unweakened and unerring through all our future lives!"
The qualities of White Tara are ultimately inseparable from our own.
Her loving kindness reflects an innate altruism that arises spontaneously from recognizing realities,
but a reaching outward to embrace the world with infinite compassion.
If we see through to Tara's essence, she frees us from self-serving thoughts and encourages us to act selflessly, and wisely, for the benefit of all beings;
the surest prescription for a long and fulfilling life !!!
Open Seven Eyes:
Like Tara, and be sure that everyhing you do, every step you take,
every thought you think, is fueled by compassion.
You will then be inseparable from White Tara,
THe embodiment of Pure Love !!!
"When we have compassion toward anyone, it does not mean that we are standing at a higher position where we are giving out something from our sympathy", Rinpoche reminded us as the above.
Because we have empathy over this person, in which we can feel their suffering, their pain and their needs inside as we have the similar obstacles within us, we then offer assistance to this person.
Charity has become an essential part of my life, as I participate many activities in helping those under privileged or physical impaired people, I realize the most precious principle, beside the luxurious appearance of such, is to cherish each moment of what I have bestowed and to see and feel with my heart and my soul....
Dear Mighty God, Buhdda , and High Spirit,
Please Grant me Wisdom,
Ability to Trust, and Love,
Please Grant me Beauty and Happiness...
As I promise to be awaken and grant my merit to others....
