LIVE TO LOVE IN ACTION (IN BHUTAN)

With the prayers and wishes to help all the sentient beings, the Annual Drukpa Council members in Bhutan initiated the first ever “Live to Love” activity in Bhutan on the 27th of September 28, 2008. The members were blessed with the presence of H.E the IXth Khamtrul Rimpoche and H.E the IInd Thuksey Rimpoche.

The members of ADC and other few volunteers made a visit to the dog pound at Memelakha and Wangchutaba, Thimphu, Bhutan to feed more than 1000 sick, malnourished and also dying dogs. Many dogs cried to be freed as they must have felt like prisoners and many had been injured due to the fights among themselves. For the comfort of the human beings the dogs were impounded in the area very uncomfortable with not enough food to eat. It is like snatching away the right of the dogs to live.

LIVE TO LOVE, DRUKPA PLOURAY, 21ST SEPTEMBER

Last Sunday September 21st, a small group of people went to the seaside for the Live to Love activity. Thanks to the financial participation of a few more people, who could not join us, we were able to buy around 17 kilos of winkles and 1 kilo of clams. We went to the sea to release the beings. First we gave some mendrup to the animals, then did two practices together near them and recited some mantras of Avalokiteshvara while we were releasing them. We were very happy to have given them a new chance in an appropriate place so that they might not be fished by human beings soon (hopefully). We went to two different spots : one appropriate for the winkles, the second one for the clams. We stopped a while at the second spot to picnic, as we wanted to wait for the low tide to release the clams.

September 2008, Tahiti

This last Sunday, we went on a beach to clean it and we have collected litters and waste, most of them brought by the sea. This beach is exposed to the wind and the stream ; it means that sea tranports a lot of waste on a very long distance, toxin for animals, in particular turtles.

Sangha in Germany – Live to Love am 21. September


With deeply felt gratitude for our precious Guru,
for this fulfilling method;
with love and respect
for Buddha, Dharma and Sangha
here the report of our September activity:

Precious Sangha…
Coming together to practice together was in a much deeper sense a special experience on this Sunday.
In a very loving and fine way came to show a little bit more the essential meaning of the possibilities to grow into a bigger form of love & compassion.

On Friday we received a large package with fine clothing from Peldrön and Senge from the Black Forest.
Through this both of them were energetically absolutely present and out of the rather “small family like” Drukpa Hamburg grew the presence for our whole Drukpa Germany community.
A very nourishing & supporting feeling of connection was the result.
Thank you Peldrön & Senge! Your clothes have made a lot of homeless people happy here in Hamburg.

LIVE TO LOVE – Drukpa Penang 21 Sep 2008 Visiting Two Needy Families

This month we visited two families with different needs.

The first family is about a woman in her seventies who had the lower part of her right leg amputated in 1998 due to cancerous growth, and the upper part of her leg suffered the same fate in 2007 when the cancer cell spread. She is wheel chair bound and needs constant care by her daughter. As such the daughter could not get a full time job and is only doing some casual jobs at her home to help with their daily needs.
