Merit Box Donations

Merit Box Donations

Date Posted:
October 2006

Rinpoche sent the following card to a couple who give money from a donation box distributed by the FPMT for Rinpoche’s projects, called a Merit Box.

Thank you very much for your kind letter and your Merit Box. I will dedicate the money to making the two-story statue of the female deity of controlling. This is to help my project. A student is trying to get a position in the Singapore embassy, he also needs this statue, and I will dedicate your money to this project.

Thank you very much for your devotion to guru, Dharma, and Sangha and your compassion for the most precious, kind sentient beings. Serve sentient beings, please continue your Dharma practice in this way, and also meditate on the lam-rim. Develop realizations step by step. Success will come with these conditions, and the most important one is to make your realization of guru devotion stable. This is the most important realization to develop, using the methods of strong purification and of extensive collection of merits.

Then, every day, pray with that strong guru devotion to the direct and indirect guru to grant realizations.

With much love and prayer...
