Song dedicated to the children of Yushu Earthquake Tibet_Yangchuk Tso

"Small legs lost between the stones
Mother`s lap suddenly got cold
Weeping, shouting to father and mother

I fear, I tremble
FATHER/MOTHER_MOTHER/FATHER
My black hair coverd by the dust
My small body squeezed by the wall
MOTHER/FATHER_FATHER/MOTHER
Please! Search me once with your eyes
MOTHER/FATHER_FATHER/MOTHER
Please! Hold me once with your hands
Small flower destroyed by the storm
Mother`s song suddenly got cut off
Suffering pain, hopelessly
I feel cold, i feel hungry
FATHER/MOTHER_MOTHER/FATHER
My little playground is destroyed
My brethern, friends are pushed seperated
MOTHER/FATHER_FATHER/MOTHER
Please! Call my name once
MOTHER/FATHER_FATHER/MOTHER
Please! Kiss me once
MOTHER_MOTHER/FATHER"
With thanks to: Gangthuk Tibet Boedpa for the posting into his facebook.

Yushu- What Next - After The Quake

Three weeks into the Yushu earthquake and as news disappear from the world’s front pages, survivors’ needs increase. Temperatures are still at sub zero. They still lack the very basic necessities of warm clothings, blankets, fuel for cooking etc. They are living on meager food supplies and are driniking water from unsafe sources.

Those who survived the quake are psychologically traumatised. When they are awake they are nervous and when they fall asleep nightmares haunt them. Many of them are suicidal. They face an uncertain future after losing all that they have – family members and their homes.

No amount is too small as a gift to the people of Yushu. For every dollar you will be able to provide a bowl of warm meal, a bottle of clean water or even something to keep them warm. Below is an estimate of what your contributions can do for them :

* A jacket costs 2 USD.
* A blanket costs 2.40 USD.
* A toothbrush costs 0.15 USD.
* One ton of coal costs 51 USD.
* 20 * 500ml bottled water 2.20 USD.
* Flashlight: 2.90 USD.

An orphanage, a clinic and library will be built on the grounds of former Norling Library. Norling Library was the brain child of Minam Rinpoche. It was a four storey building which stood proudly in the town of Yushu. Many people, especially children, thronged this library daily.

If you wish to be part of the Norling Library – Orphanage – Clinic project, let’s join hands with Minam Rinpoche to make Yushu a better place for the people of Yushu.

Minam Rinpoche's Pledge

The quake came, showed its vicious strength and left. It left many homes devastated, claimed many lives and created many orphans. It will never be the same again for all the Yushu-ians.

Today Minam Rinpoche is in Xining town, a 12-15 hour drive from Yushu. He has gone there to withdraw the funds that has been sent by Ms Seetoh from Johore Bahru and myself. He leaves for homeless home in Yushu tomorrow.

He suddenly found himself as a "father" to 20 orphaned children. He has pledged to take them under his wing, providing them accommodation, food, education, personal needs, care and whatever their needs may be. Rinpoche himself now has no roof over his head and is living in tents alongside with his fellow mates. Does your heart cringe?

Rinpoche intends to distribute the money he received to the people of Yushu so as to enable them to buy food, clothing, necessities. Money will also be spent to do pujas for those who perished. Rinpoche said it is very important that pujas be held for the deceased.

Guest Rooms & Shower Rooms

(Upstairs are 2 guest rooms with shower/toilet facilities downstairs)

Due to an over sight and over-work I forgot to inform readers that Minam Rinpoche has built 2 guest rooms and 3 showers (or is it 4) and a clinic at Norling Library since end of 2009. If you are heading on to Yushu and would like to pay Rinpoche a visit, you may like to know that there is 'bunking' quarters available. June and July are normally tight months so do let Rinpoche know of your intended visit early.

Coin boxes

For those who are not aware, we have embarked on a "Norling Library Education & Maintenance Fund". To build a library is no easy feat and to maintain it is even more challenging. Norling was officially opened in July 2007 and as of last year when I visited, the place definitely needs a new coat of paint, not to mention the replacement broken windows through vandalism and change of weather conditions (expansion and contraction duirng the summer/winter period) and the high electricity bills during the harsh winter months.

We have distributed coin boxes to various homes. Through this exercise we hope to inculcate the values of saving and sharing in the hearts of the young ones as well as all family members.

(Thanks to Sean Sen & Joe Teo for donating 500 coin boxes to Rinpoche)

Thank you, Sam and Family

Thank you, Sam and Family for the return of the two coin boxes. The coins are indeed heavy.

"Even the Smallest Act of Kindness is Wothwhile"

Thanks too to the Sponsors of this coin box.

May all be happy and free from fear, hurt and harm!

All's Well That Ends Well

No words can describe the heartfelt thanks of Minam Rinpoche during his one month stay in Malaysia. Apart from the various pujas he conducted over this period, he had the opportunity of meeting great people, people who are able to see more than what meets the eye.

Malacca

The events kicked off in Malacca on 8 January 2010, the start of my one month “tour”. Four cars travelled from Kuala Lumpur to Malacca for the event. Thanks for the support! On 12 January we journeyed to Johore Bahru where a two night program was held at the Drikung Kagyu Center JB on 16 & 17 January. On 18 January we hit the road back to Kuala Lumpur where the final preparations had to be looked into as the event in KL was relatively on a large scale.

Drikung Kagyu Center, Johore Bahru

On 24 January YB Senator Heng Seai Kie, Deputy Minister of Information, Communications and Culture graced the Lamp Lighting Ceremony. The night ended with the blessings of a Dzambala Puja.

Petaling Jaya

25 January was Guru Rinpoche day and Drukpa Kagyu Kuala Lumpur requested Rinpoche to lead them in that night’s offering followed by a dharma talk

Drukpa Kagyu KL

On 30 January Amitabha Guan Zi Zai Buddhist Society, Klang, invited Rinpoche to confer the Dzambala Empowerment. The turn out was great despite the rain clouds that loomed above, threatening to burst any second.

All’s well that ends well!

La-ma ku-kham sang-war sol-wa deb.
Chog-tu ku-tseh ring-war sol-wa deb.
Thrinley dar-shing gye-par sol-wa deb.
Lama dang drel-wa me-par jyin-gyi lob.

I pray that the Lama may have good health and long life.
I pray that your Dharma activities spread far and wide.
I pray that I may not be separated from you
