Four Hundred Million Mantrass

23 Oct 2013

Chamgon Khentin Tai Situpa has requested that all students of Akong Tulku Rinpoche work together to recite One Hundred Million of each of the following mantras:

  • Amitabha (Om Ami Dewa Hrih)
  • Chenrezig, (Om Mani Peme Hung)
  • Guru Rinpoche (Om Ah Hung Benza Guru Pema Siddhi Hung)
  • and the short Dorje Sempa mantra (Om Benza Satto Hung)

We ask that as many people as possible choose one or more of the mantras to take as part of their daily practice. We ask that as many of you as possible choose one or more of the mantras to take as part of your daily practice and keep a record of the amount you recite. You can send your amount of recited mantras directly to your local Samye Dzong OR to Samye Ling via email at paldron@samyelingshop.com on a weekly or monthly basis so that we can keep a record here. People who are not affiliated with a Samye Dzong can let Ani Paldron know directly themselves.

It is expected that this will take some time and we hope that as many people as possible can take part so that we can ensure that we all achieve our aim, with the aspiration of a swift return for Choje Akong Tulku Rinpoche and the fulfillment of his Dharma and Charitable activities.

The Buddhist principle is to be everybody's friend, not to have any enemy.
