Land of the West. Buddha Shakyamuni revealed
that this pure land came into existence as a result of the stainless motivation
and pure practices of Amitabha when, long ago, he was known as the bodhisattva
Dharmakara. In another context, he is the embodiment of the enlightened speech
of all the Buddhas. Ven. Dhakpa Rinpoche has kindly agreed to confer the Amitabha
Buddha empowerment for students to receive the blessings and practice of this particular Buddha.
Benefit of taking the Amitabha Buddha Empowerment.
Once you receive the Amitabha empowerment you will be close to the Buddha Amitabha.
When one recites the mantra of the Buddha Amitabha mantra it is equal in benefit to
reciting one thousand of the Buddha's mantras. It also said that reciting the Amitabha
mantra will purify one’s negativities which we been accumulated for many eons.
As an ordinary person it is very difficult to reach enlightenment but if one has strong
faith and devotion towards the Buddha Amitabha anyone will reach Amitabha’s pure land in
this life time. One of the Sutras said that if one practices well with the right
motivation, faithful devotees of Amitabha will be born in the pure land after their death
and receive teachings form Amitabha himself and countless other Buddhas. Experiencing
none of the sufferings of cyclic existence and forever freed from sufferings they will
eventually attain Buddhahood.
This teaching will be translated from Chinese to English. Please bring an FM radio for
those who are not Chinese. There is no commitment to take with this empowerment and no
fees to attend the teachings. There is no registration required.
