An Updated Store: Featuring Audio Downloads and More from Mangala Shri Bhuti

Posted: 10 Jun 2012 06:00 AM PDT

We are pleased to announce that Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche's organization, Mangala Shri Bhuti, has a newly designed and updated store! It is now much easier to browse Dzigar Kongtrul Rinpoche's recorded teachings. The updated store also offers a convenient way to register for Kongtrul Rinpoche, Dungse Jampal Norbu, and Elizabeth Mattis Namgyel's upcoming programs. Below you will find some of our other new offerings.

New Teachings on MP3 CD and Video: MSB has a handful of recently published teachings, like the Wheel Blade of Mind Transformation.  These rare lojong teachings are a complement to the popular Seven Points of Mind Training slogans. The Wheel Blade of Mind Transformation gives us us advice on what to do when difficulties arise in our life, when we are overwhelmed by insecurity, or find ourselves preoccupied with a grudge. 5 talks, $ 35. Lerab Ling, 2011.

Teachings via Audio Download: For the first time, MSB has begun to offer audio programs direct to your computer. No need to wait a few days for shipping, the MP3 files will be sent to you today.

Photographs: We have a wide selection of inspiring photographs for your shrine or practice text.

Practice-Inspired Merchandise: MSB has water bottles, umbrellas, t-shirts, hats, and pins that remind us of the bodhisattva's attitude of seeing all situations as opportunities to develop bodhicitta.

Ways to Support MSB's Compassionate Activities: Contribute to the Life Release, Asian Charity Fund, Sangdo Palri Temple, and more.

Take a look around. We hope you find that registering for programs, purchasing teachings, and contributing to MSB just got easier.

2012年香港护世息災念佛祈福法会

2012.1.8-10 啟講於香港亞洲博覽館5.7.9號館編號：62-172 ( 轉貼) 二零一二年香港護世息災念佛析福法會倡議書尊敬的全球佛門同修： 阿彌陀佛！ 近年來，世界各地天災人禍頻繁，人心惶愎不安。更有瑪雅人的古老，預言一二0— 二年十二月二十一日可能是人類文明终結日，以及許多科學報告預測未來地球將會有毀滅性災難。例如，今年十月二十日，日本北海道大學理學研究院附屬地震火山研究觀測中心，預測十二月至一月期間將會發生九級以上地震，震中央在宮城縣南部近海至茨城縣近海的日本海溝南部附近。 許多志士仁人都在奔走呼籲，謀求化解災難，拯救人類的良方。 《華嚴經〉云：「應觀法界性，一切唯心造」。量子科學家普朗克博士說：「心識是一切物質的基礎」。災難是由於人心貪填癡慢疑等諸惡念， 以及殺盜淫妄酒等諸惡業召感而成。如何化解？正如美國念力量子科學家布萊登博士提出：面對二0— 二年，唯有全人類「棄惡揚善、改邪歸正、 端正心念」，才能化解地球的災難，並將世界引導到更好的走向。 以普林斯頓大學、麻省理工學院、斯坦福大學和其他世界知名大學的尖端實驗為基礎，美國科學家琳恩．麥塔格特（Lynne McTaggart）在〈念力的秘密〉科學報告中揭示： －人的意念足以影響物理世界！ －群體念力說不定能逆轉潮流，帶來這個星球的修復和更新。想要改變世界，我們只需要同心合意就能辦到。 －地球上若有八千零八十四個修行者（用高度專注的念力）就足以影饗全世界（七十億人口〕。 －修行者的心靈會以同一頻率共鳴，鳴的頻率能讓四周環境的雜亂頻率趨於和諧。調和個人的内在衝突可以調和全球性的衝突。 ! －我� �的思想意念足以對抗全球暖化這種具潛在摧毀性的力量(災難）。 因此，全球佛門同修若能共同一心向善，竭誠為世界祈禱，其善心正念的磁場，能改變七十億人口的業力，可以化解可能發生的二0 — 二年 ...
