New Year 2022 Message by H.H.Khenchen Lama Rinpoche
New Year 2022
Tashi Delek everyone!
Today is a very auspicious day. In the Western calendar, today is the first day of 2022
Happy New Year!
Tibetan Yogi New Year is also coming soon. I’d like to say Tashi Delek for all of the world. Especially Tashi Delek to all of my Dharma brothers and sisters, students, and especially to all Dharma practitioners. All the best wishes for meditation methods to come true. Best wishes also in samsara business; mental health, and physical body health.
And importantly that in meditation: Hinayana, Mahayana, Tantrayana, and the Heart Essence of Dzogchen meditation, what you wish comes true, Enlightenment, this year.
Usually everyone says Happy New Year and also have New Year’s Resolutions. This is also very important. Today I share my dedication with all of my students. There are three things.
First my prayer, Mirror Wisdom. First, I take Refuge in Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. I say all Buddhas past, present, future, and Buddha’s body, speech and mind are Padmasambhava. All Yidams, One Root Yidam is Vajrakilaya. All Dakinis, Power of Ocean is the nature of Samantabhadri. All Dharmapalas are powerful as King Geyser. These Four Roots I pray, blessing forever, for everyone.
This is Refuge prayer, Buddha, Dharma and Sangha.
Secondly, if someone sees my physical body or hears my voice and respects me; did empowerments, outer transmission and teaching with me and also takes Refuge from me, and knows me with six consciousnesses – see me, hear me, touch me and miss me all know me with six consciousness, and feels how great my Master is who knows liberation of mind. May the same come true so all beings achieve fast Buddhahood. This I visualize and pray.
Thirdly, if somebody says something bad about me or thinks not friendly thoughts or feels they are an enemy, when I didn’t do anything, and yet they say bad things. If people are nice to my face but behind my back are the opposite. And if they say not nice things about me to others and do bad advertising about me. Or, if someone kills me, all mind comes true Bodhicitta. I take care, Knowledge Liberation soon, I pray.
These are my prayers today. All the best to you all.
Inner Buddha Nature.
