Tsem Rinpoche teaches MANDALA OFFERING
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2012
- In the Mahayana teachings, in order to take the ultimate essence of our precious human life, we should aspire to achieve full enlightenment so that we can lead all sentient beings out of the sufferings of samsara. To achieve full enlightenment, we need a vast collection of merits. One of the most effective practices that we can undertake for this purpose is to make mandala offerings to the Buddhas.
The mandala is a symbolic representation of the universe and all the precious objects that are contained within it, visualized as completely pure and offered to the Buddhas. According to Buddhist cosmology, our world is flat with a large mountain, Mount Meru in the centre, surrounded by four continents, each of which has two major and many more minor sub-continents. There are billions of such worlds and when we offer the mandala, we imagine holding these billions of worlds in our hands, regarding them as pure lands and offering them up to the Buddhas.

This is just what we needed to know and Rinpoche does a fabulous work of explaining the essentials we need know on how to offer the mandala. It would be cool to enter into a 100,000 retreat of making mandala offerings.
Rewatching after a few months. Great explanation about why mandala offering is one of the preliminary practices. Prostrations, purification, butterlamps, mandala and the Guru Yoga, so concise and so very important. More importantly it reminds me just how much of a slacker I have been so far -_-
As always, very glad for such detailed [and humorous] instructions!
Thank you Rinpoche! 🙏🏻

Hello GonG108, thank you for watching this video. It maybe because you have some kind of karmic relationship with Tibetan and Buddhist mantras. Have you read Tsem Rinpoche`s blog www.tsemrinpoche.com? :)

Om benza sato hung ( vajrasattva mantra ) can i recite this prayer while i am performing my mandala offering ?
tshering lhamu I haven’t hear if the short mantra of Lord Vajrasattva can be used although usually the long one will be used. Perhaps you can ask a Pastor here www.tsemrinpoche.com/ask-the-pastors
Jacinta Goh ok..thanks for the link :)
do the ngondro practices require initation
Another version says that.... on the 1st ring start from mount meru till precious treasure vase. 2nd contains only 8 goddess. 3rd ring contains sun moon precious umbrela n victory banner . That the last one is the top symbolise Vejayanta palace (king Indra's palace). Which one is correct?
yes there are a few versions, all are fine, just follow one you are comfortable with
@@tsemrinpoche thank you 🙏
Could you please send me all of the darmha prayers recited here so I can do this? I am brand new.
Adrian Wallschlaeger Hi Adrian. I’ve found the English version here resources.tsemtulku.com/prayers/preliminaries/mandala-offering.html . However, for a complete Tibetan prayer that is being used by Kechara, I would strongly recommend you to get the prayer here www.vajrasecrets.com/the-mandala-offering-of-37-heaps
Thank you so so much!
Adrian Wallschlaeger my pleasure
Anyone write down the Mantra on each step
Mandala offering is covered under this article www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/mandala-offering-a-powerful-method-to-accumulate-merits.html
Hello! Love all your videos. As a non- Buddhist, can we practice this?
yes of course
balls of dough outside the rim becomes the ball of the speaker of truth is it you dave
What if you’re left handed? Or does it even matter?
Doesnt matter :)
:-D
108 times?
Hi VoidraMusic, may I know what is your question about? Mind to elaborate? Thanks.
Ee Mun do we do the mandala offering 108times for maximum effect?
Hi VoidraMusic, basically there is no hard and fast rule as to how many times one should do the mandala offering. However the more we do, the more merits we can accumulate. It is also important to note that having the correct motivation and visualisation will bring optimal results. Here is an article from His Eminence the 25th Tsem Rinpoche's blog on Mandala Offering that you may read for more information: www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/mandala-offering-%E2%80%93-a-powerful-method-to-accumulate-merits.htmlMay you have a blessed spiritual journey.
Ok
Hi there :) hope you enjoyed the teaching!
Bees don’t really sting at this time of the year. They scramble for food because it’s scarce and eventually without food, lose their stinger and die. Sorry for the news!
@@C_Rodica I don't have one, but even if I did I can assure you it wouldn't be near you in any capacity at all 😂
@@sebee555 I'm sorry! New client made me snap. It's not the first time and already too much. Maybe if she gets nuked.
Hold on to your stinger!
Or maybe if I can send her in a trip. I have to find how to put her to work.
Other than that, mind does not exist and it does exist, and neither comes, nor goes.
@@C_Rodica no worries. I wasn't offended in the slightest, take care :)
The north is the men in the south is the king in the east is eyes and ears called the sharps in the west is love loving kind and in middle is the Buddha the sky
Hi Roger, thanks for your comment. Do visit His Eminence the 25th Tsem Rinpoche's personal blog at www.tsemrinpoche for more inspiration.
Where does your knowledge of this comes from Roger?
This is teacher in from root Mongolia?
Tsem Rinpoche’s mother, Dewa Nimbo, is often referred to by Mongolians as “Torgut Noyen”, a respectful title for a royal princess of the Torgut people.
@@tsemrinpoche okay, understand good!
