His Eminence Vajra Guru Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche presided over the Longevity Buddha Empowerment Puja to Perfect Completion.
On January 5th, 2025, the Founding Abbot Guru of the Glorious Jewel Monastery, His Eminence Vajra Guru Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche presided over the Longevity Buddha Empowerment Puja, and bestowed the incomparably wondrous Longevity Buddha empowerment upon the attendees so that sentient beings may have sufficient time to practice (Buddhism) in this life time, to have the chance to to be reborn in Amitabha’s Pure Land. Rinchen Dorjee Rinpoche compassionately practiced the puja and led the attendees in reciting the Longevity Buddha’s heart mantra； Rinpoche’s body and the mandala radiated a golden light, while the entire space was filled with a wondrous, miraculous fragrance as the ground shook. When Rinpoche bestowed the rare and precious Longevity Buddha empowerment, Rinpoche drew unreservedly from his own body, the essence of the five elements: earth, wind, water, fire, and emptiness to bestow blessings upon all attendees. Attendees felt a wave of compassionate warmth while their bodies grew hot, a sense of tingling at their scalps, some even felt their hair stand up. Everyone could feel Rinpoche’s great compassionate vow power to benefit sentient beings, and tears streamed uncontrollably down their faces. Over 2000 disciples and believers, domestic and overseas, attended this puja. Rinpoche performed the Dharma with his immense bodhicitta vow, and the power of his blessings was incomparably wondrous, benefitting boundless sentient beings.
