To our most kind and Precious Guru

On this joyous and auspicious day, Lama Thubten Namdrol Dorje , disciples and students at Thekchen Choling (Singapore) rejoice as we and students from around the world mark the birth of Tulku Tenzin Phuntsok Rinpoche. We pray with intense longing that Rinpoche have a long, strong and healthy life; may all auspicious conditions flourish and may all his wishes be achieved just as he intends. We know that Rinpoche’s wishes are unmistaken and lead only to definite goodness.

After my retreat in mid December, I went back to Kopan Monastery and the first thing I did was to see Phuntsok Rinpoche. He immediately asked me why I didn’t call to wish him happy birthday which was in October. I told him I was in retreat. It seems many people called to wish him plus there was a celebration organized for him in Kopan Monastery. I felt very happy and touched with his complaint, as this only showed his love, care and concern for me and every single moment while I was in retreat, I felt his blessings with his enlightened mind.

I had a wonderful time with him for two whole weeks and I was extremely overjoyed with his enthusiasm and interest in his studies. For your information, he stared school beginning of this year and he is doing very well. He loves school and his English language has improved tremendously that he is now able to communicate with others directly. In fact his vocabulary and pronunciation is better than mine.

He is also more matured, able to memorize different prayers and practices, Tibetan language, mathematics, science …etc. subject which I never had a chance to study. I am so happy with his progress. He continues to love living in the compound of Kopan Monastery. In one recent incident during the visit of LDC group, they invited him and other young lamas for lunch. It was a Friday morning but he gently declined due to school. Our little lama said “Lunch is not important as my school”. I must admit I’m so impressed.

Khen Rinpoche and I was outside the Kopan coffee shop and we both tried to convince him to take a day off from school for lunch with the LDC group but he still insisted lunch was not important and decided to stay in school. The other little lamas ended up joining us and Phuntsok Rinpoche ended up having potatoes for lunch.

Later that day when I went back, he asked me if I enjoyed lunch. I replied … “Of course I did, we had lunch in Hyatt Kathmandu. How about you?” Little Phuntsok Rinpoche replied “Of course I did… I enjoyed my potatoes”.

He’s grown up, still chubby, playful but lots of interest in study. He’s also very cute, very loving and very funny. Every body loves his unique character…I love it too. ;-D

I just want to share this with all students and friends of Tenzin Phuntsok Rinpoche who cares for him and who’s interested to know how he is doing. He is happy and doing great.

On behalf of Phuntsok Rinpoche, I like to wish everyone and pray, may the coming Chinese and Tibetan new year be filled with good health, prosperity, laughter, happiness and enlightenment.

I have organized extensive pujas and prayers offering during this great Mulam Festival in Nepal, the 15 days of Buddha’s miracle merit multiplying day which is solely dedicated for the long life and fulfilment of all the holy wishes of His Holiness Dalai Lama, Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Khen Rinpoche Lama Lhundrup, Tenzin Phuntsok Rinpoche, all holy beings and students, friends and supporters of the Great Mahasiddha Geshe Lama Konchog.
Happy new year.

Thekchen Choling (Singapore)

To celebrate the auspicious birthday of Phuntsok Rinpoche on 28 October 2008, Khen Rinpoche, Geshe Chonyi, together with Kopan monks and students of Amitabha Buddhist Centre conducted an animal liberation which saw the release of about 1 million animals. We rejoice at this wonderful opportunity to make prayers for the good health of Phuntsok Rinpoche. We pray for the success in his Dharma studies so that Rinpoche will quickly benefit all sentient beings.

We dedicate all our merits for the flourishing of the Buddhadharma, the long and healthy lives of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Khen Rinpoche Lama Lhundrup, Geshe Chonyi, and Phuntsok Rinpoche. May all our precious gurus’ wishes be easily fulfilled. We are deeply grateful for the blessings from our gurus. May Amitabha Buddhist Centre and all Dharma practitioners have favourable conditions in abundance in all their activities. May all living beings abide in happiness.
