On April 14th, 2010 Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa called on all the Sangha of Palpung Sherabling Monastic Seat and all the International students present for Mahamudra transmissions, to participate in an urgent gathering to perform a grand Monlam and Ten Thousand Lamp offerings in the court yard of the main monastery.

These prayers were dedicated to the victims of several recent, unimaginable tragedies: the recent earthquakes in South and central America which caused enormous damage and the loss of many lives; the plane crash over Russia which took the life of Poland’s President Kaczynski, his wife Maria and 130 others; and just this week, the massive earthquake which hit Khegudo, Nangchen and Yushu killing many hundreds of people and leaving many hundreds of others injured, with school buildings, monasteries and family homes in ruins throughout.

Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa in his enlightened Bodhisattva activity, arranges grand Monlam Prayers and Butter Lamp offerings whenever such disasters occur. These prayers are dedicated, as always, simply and sincerely so that all living beings who have lost their lives in these events may have better rebirths and rest in peace, while those who survive may recover swiftly and easily. We also dedicate with the aspiration that these kinds of disasters never happen again and that our planet remain in harmony.
