With the kind blessings of Kalu Rinpoche and the precious three Jewels, Pal Shangpa Thekchen Ling was established in May 2009. Under the guidance and advice of Kalu Rinpoche, the centre has set up a clear and important mission: to provide a venue where people can study and practice the Dharma of the Buddha, especially the precious teachings of Shangpa Kagyu traditions, and meditation.
Weekly meditation technique teachings and practice classes are held to help people to develop tranquility and stability of minds. Besides all these regular learnings, Kalu Rinpoche also explicitly hopes that his Hong Kong disciples can make strong devotions and efforts to learn Tibetan well in order to read and practice from traditional Tibetan texts. Also, centre members can have the privilege of attending traditional monthly pujas, such as Guru Rinpoche puja, Medicine Buddha puja, 6 arm Mahakala puja, Life Release pujas and Fire pujas etc.
Out of his eminenceˇ¦s exceptional kindness and bodhicitta, Kalu Rinpoche will visit Hong Kong annually for dharma lectures, special teachings and empowerments, initiations and life release etc. Ultimately, the prime goal of setting up Pal Shangpa Thekchen Ling is that sentient beings can benefit through listening, reflecting, learning and practicing Dharma and meditating. By doing so, one can increase her/his own mental quality, turn away from samsara and enter the path of liberation eventually. |
