Closing Speech for the 2008 Puja

I have taken refuge in the greatest of all Vehicles, Yampa Dharma.

I have taken refuge in all monks.

I have taken refuge in all religious seekers (Sangha).

All sentient beings are impermanent. All present things are impermanent. All intellectual forms are rich only for appearance. All sentient beings and human creations are subject to the cycle of impermanent existence: birth, old age, and death.

Nobody can avoid this.

The world knows the present form, past form, Arhat soul form (Supreme Being form, non being form). These three forms have already made the world unsteady. The true knowledge, Maitri knowledge (loving kindness), has not been recognized by anybody. To know the spirit of Maitreya is to understand the way. Though people do not follow the way of the super soul, the essence of its wisdom does not change.

Despite there being so many ideologies and religions, they are all talking about the same thing. Human beings are unable to see beyond their religions and ideologies. Some doggedly follow their religions only to find that they regret their whole life. Although religious texts appear to be different, they embody the same ideas.

The wonderful connection of the soul and super soul will never end, even when the guided soul is self serving and mired in its own ego. If the Maitri knowledge is recognized between the soul and the super soul the wrong karma element of the world can be destroyed. But the world is submerged in its own selfish aim and nobody can keep the search of soul and the super soul (Paramatma) in their heart.

Today the world is in search of non violence and the way to Maitreya (loving kindness), it has not been found yet. Today the world is frightened, terrorized and restless by the name of materialism. If the warring generation is changed through path of meditation (Dhyana Marga), I have been following, the world will be transformed. I will bring to light thousands of Buddhist texts and the Way of Wisdom through meditation.

In today's world there is the Maitreya idea between the soul and the super soul that is slowly taking root. The Kali Yuga (era) has caused weakness and lack of respect and devotion among human beings. People have forgotten Maitri feeling between the soul and super soul due to the pursuit of fleeting pleasures. One day all such addictions to temporary pleasure and materialism will disappear from our religions. But the repentance of whole life will become blue sky that comes after death.

If we have the knowledge of Maitri between the soul and super soul, the subtle knowledge can be seen after death. All life has given me this insight through hard meditation philosophy. The knowledge I have gained through commitment will be improved in practical knowledge. In order to liberate all sentient beings and to show the world the way to peace, I will speak to all human beings, the spiritual followers of the dharma (spiritual practice) teachings and Khenpo (spiritual teachers) about the wisdom and understanding of the Maitri knowledge form philosophy. I have already dedicated my life to spreading enlightened wisdom between all sentient beings for the sake of helpless sentient beings. This Great Vehicle, the Yampa Dharma, is not only for me, it is for the liberation of all helpless beings.

I have been meditating with a lot of difficulty and I have become the teacher of all dharma. The first dharma is the Srawan Dharma (Universal Dharma). The other dharma (life purpose) is the vow of the Bodhisattva to lead all helpless sentient beings to liberation. The Maitreya Buddha is manifested in hundreds of Ginphen Buddha. All sentient beings who are aware of the presence of Maitri become the Hundred Ginphen Semkoi. These come together to form of the Yampa Dharma, the Great Vehicle of Vehicles.

The philosophy of the whole world will be improved and changed from meditation philosophy point of view. Once it has changed, sentient beings can no longer be unsatisfied or evil. Philosophy of the whole world keeps changing. With the proper guidance, helpless sentient beings will be given the grace to gain the wisdom of the path to liberation. This will be achieved through the miraculous power of non-soul (Anatman) Maitri knowledge.

Riddi Siddhi – May all beings be happy.

Footnote: Dharma Sangha does not often use the pronoun "I" in speeches, it is added to make translation easier to understand. The use of "I" is in fact rare. First person verbal indications (-chhu) are more common than the personal pronoun "I" (ma, though not to be confused with the same word, which is the post-position for "in" or "at", such as "tyo samay ma" – at that time) and sometimes the word "my" (mero). Most common is the use of "one's own" (aphno).
