About those past misdeeds that we have performed but cannot recall, we can contemplate like this: “All the misdeeds that I have committed since beginningless time, intentionally or unintentionally, are all wrong. As if they are the poison I have taken, I feel the greatest fear and regret for my actions, and vow never to commit them ever again.” This way, all negative karma can be changed into mutable karma. The significance of such resolution cannot be overstated. Otherwise, any karmic effect will be possible if this is not done.

According to the Tibetan calendar, we have now entered the sacred month of Lha Bab Düchen (the Festival of the Buddha’s Descent from Heaven), which extends from October 22 to November 20 this year. During this most auspicious period, the merit of all virtuous actions is multiplied ten millionfold.

In keeping with our tradition, during this month we will accumulate 300,000 recitations of the Amitabha Buddha mantra “Om Ami Dewa Ayu Siddhi Hum Hrih” or the Buddha’s name “Namo Amitabha Buddha”. Through this profound practice, we generate heartfelt prayers for world peace and the happiness of all sentient beings, and fervently aspire for rebirth in Amitabha Buddha’s Pure Land of Sukhavati.

She’ll use the Buddha’s teachings to address the specific challenges that those who are sick or in pain face.
