Tashi Delegs & Happy Water Tiger Year of 2022 CE from Ringu Tulku @ Bodhicharya Berlin
སྐུ་ཁམས་བཟང་ཞིང་ཞབས་པད་བརྟན་པ་
དོན་གཉིས་བཞེད་དོན་ལྷུན་གྱིས་
མཛའ་བརྩེ་མཐུན་འབྲེལ་བདེ་སྐྱིད་
འཇིག་རྟེན་ཁམས་ཀུན་བཀྲ་ཤིས་བདེ་
ཆུ་སྟག་གནམ་ལོ་གསར་ཚེས་ལ་རི་མགུ
May you live long and in good health.
May your wishes for yourself and others be effortlessly realised.
Love, kindness, harmony and happiness may prevail.
And the whole world be filled with auspiciousness.
This prayer is sent by Ringu Tulku,
on the Water Tiger Tibetan New Year.

སངས་རྒྱས་བྱང་སེམས་རྒྱ་མཚོའི་བྱིན་རླབས་དང་།།
བདག་གིས་དུས་གསུམ་བསགས་པའི་དགེ་བའི་ཚོགས།།
ལྷག་བསམ་རྣམ་དག་སྨོན་པའི་ནུས་མཐུ་ཡིས་།།
འཇིག་རྟེན་ཁམས་འདིར་འཁྲུག་རྩོད་ནད་ཡམས་སོགས།།
ཉེས་ཚོགས་ཀུན་ཞི་བདེ་སྐྱིད་ཕུན་སུམ་ཚོགས།།
ཕན་ཚུན་བྱམས་པའི་སེམས་དང་ལྡན་གྱུར་ཅིག། །།
By the blessings of Enlightened and Compassionate ones,
By the power of my positive actions of three times,
And my prayers of pure aspiration,
May wars, conflicts, epidemics
And all other maladies dissolve in this world,
And may the earth and all who live on this earth enjoy the abundance of wellbeing,
May all learn to live lovingly with each other.
Durch den Segen von Erleuchteten und Mitfühlenden,
Durch die Kraft meiner positiven Handlungen aus drei Zeiten,
und meine reinen Wunschgebete,
Mögen Kriege, Konflikte, Epidemien
Und alle anderen Leiden in dieser Welt sich auflösen,
Und möge die Erde und alle die auf dieser Erde leben
die Fülle des Wohlergehens genießen,
Mögen alle lernen, liebevoll miteinander zu leben.

His Holiness the 4th Dodruchen Rinpoche (1927-2022) entered into parinirvana yesterday at around 4pm in his retreat at Lukshama near Gangtok in Sikkim. He was one of the main lineage holders of the Nyingma School of Buddhism and especially the Longchen Nyingthik set of teachings. He is regarded as one of the most respectable teachers of Tibetan Buddhism.
He was personally one of my main teachers and was our refuge and protection. His presence in Sikkim was one of the main reasons for us to settle there. I remember all the kind and wise ways that he helped us in various ways.
Once when an insect entered into my ear he woke up in the middle of the night and found a way to get it out. He was the same way to all the people who came to get his help. Buddhists and non Buddhists all went to get his blessings in Sikkim. We would go to him when a child couldn’t sleep at night and for any major and minor needs. The community now feel like they have lost their protector.
We pray for a swift return of his reincarnation who would be similarly kind and wise.

May all our prayers and good wishes, that we earnestly offer, be effortlessly accomplished.

Dear Friends,
We just want to let you know that the Buddhist Society London is starting a free 10 lesson online course on Thursday 18th February.
Each lesson will explore a chapter of Shantideva’s Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life.
Ringu Tulku Rinpoche will analyse the Bodhicharyavatara, often translated as A Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life, an 8th-century masterpiece from Indian scholar and yogi Shantideva. In each of the ten lessons, H.E. Ringu Tulku Rinpoche will focus on one of the ten chapters of the Bodhicharyavatara.
The Bodhicharyavatara is regarded as one of the most important Tibetan Buddhist texts and is studied extensively by Tibetan Buddhist practitioners everywhere. Rinpoche delivers his understanding of the text in a way that makes it fully accessible to anyone who is looking for support and help in these times.

My mother passed away a week ago.
I miss her deeply but not sad.
68 years I basked at her loving presence.
This is the time to celebrate that fortune.
She only thought of what to give.
Never lost her genuine smile and good heart.
Even in our worst days
She never let any visitors to leave
Without a cup of hot tea.
I wish to thank all who sent me love
And kind messages
I wish you all a wonderful New Year
With health, wealth and harmony
And lots of kindness.
