Teachings of Lord Buddha (3)

Teachings of Lord Buddha (3)

 

– Life is suffering

– Suffering comes from ourselves

– Suffering not from outside, not a punishment, but suffering is the consequences of an action

– We have to cope all the suffering on our own, we can not rely on outside help

– Suffering is caused by craving which develops into attachment

– Fervent desire that always gets the fulfillment of which became a habit, this is the source of suffering

– Desires/expectations/ demands are met is not a happiness, at first glance looks yes, but after the desire is fulfilled, it will require new desires, and so on we just feel happy for a while

– The real happiness is not because of lust fulfilled, precisely because of lust outages is the true happiness

– Although it has not been able to extinguish the craving, but only to reduce or minimize the craving will lead to tranquility

– Although it has not extinguished the flames of desire, even though only a smaller will give happiness

– Lust will not be extinguished even though it was raining gold

– Suffering are also made by our own because of the flames of hatred

– If we are not selective with the desire, it will be a blaze of passion that would be the cause of suffering

– Desire is the cause of suffering, that’s The Teachings of Lord Buddha

 

Lord Buddha said that it is very difficult to be born as human beings, after birth as a human beings we must live with the suffering, we should experience the life of birth, old age, sickness and death, therefore do not add any suffering in our life but we must strive eliminate the suffering from our lives.

 

May all beings be happy and could achieve Nirvana.

The Five Jambhala

 

JAMBHALA

Jambhala are incarnations of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. They are the Bodhisattvas who can give blessing of wealth, health and longevity.

Chenrezig taught us, as disciples of the Buddha, we must run The Six Paramita :

The First Paramita is Dana-Paramita that means Giving,

The Second Paramita is Santi-Paramita that means Patience,

The Third Paramita is Virya-Paramita that means Spirit,

The Fourth Paramita is Sila-Paramita that means Ethics / Moral,

The Fifth Paramita is Dhyana-Paramita that means Meditation,

The Sixth Paramita is Prajna-Paramita that means Wisdom,

Appropriate to The Law of Karma, law of cause and effect, we are taught to plant if we want to reap, we must carry out Dana-Paramita in order to get blessing from Jambhala.

Dana-Paramita is the act of giving, giving is not only in the form of fund.  We can give our time and our energy to help the others, helping the others also means giving.  Pray for the fortune of  the others is also a giving, therefore do not be afraid to do something to give because Jambhala have promised to give blessings to the people who love to give.


The Five Jambhala

There are five Jambhala differentiated by the colour of Their Bodies and the light that They emitted. They are Yellow Jambhala, Red Jambhala, Black Jambhala, White Jambhala and Green Jambhala. It is written in the scripture that there are Five Jambhala in riding horse position.  The Yellow Jambhala rides yellow horse, The Red Jambhala rides red horse, The Black Jambhala rides black horse, The White Jambhala rides white horse and The Green Jambhala rides green horse.

Every Jambhala have Their own Mantra, below are the Mantra of Jambhala:

The Mantra of Yellow Jambhala is :     OM JAMBHALA JALEN DRAYE SVAHA

The Mantra of Red Jambhala is :     OM JAMBHALA JALEN DRAYE DHANAM MEDEHI HRIH DAKINI JAMBHALA SAMBHARA SVAHA

The Mantra of Black Jambhala is :     OM JAMBHALA JALEN DRAYE BASHU DHARINI SVAHA

The Mantra of White Jambhala is :     OM PADMA KRODA ARYA JAMBHALA HRIH DAYA HUM PHAT

The Mantra of Green Jambhala is :     OM KARMA JAMBHALA AH SVAHA

All of the Jambhala have promised to give wealth to us if we love to do The Six Paramita, especially The First Paramita  also diligent to chant Their Mantras. Chanting Jambhala’s Mantra would be more benefit if we have received Oral Transmissions from a teacher who holds The Teaching Lineage.
