Thanking Benefactors

Rinpoche sent the following thanks to benefactors of his projects.

My very precious wish-fulfilling friends, whose minds are enriched with devotion to the triple gem,
Whose minds are enriched with devotion, being the source of compassion – root of all beings’ happiness,
Whose minds are enriched with devotion, being the source of all goodness – up to enlightenment.

With my hands at my heart I very sincerely thank you all, give numberless thanks, for your generous support to me in my Dharma activities, supporting my office and all the Dharma projects.

Please do not misunderstand the quote below, this is not meant to mean I am a Buddha. I want to say something here that comes from the Arya Sanghata Sutra:

If one plants a seed in the supreme field of the Buddhas it has great results. In this way, you will enjoy so many results; those wise ones will have happiness. You will abandon negative karma and engage in so much virtue. Anyone who makes charity to my teachings, even the size of a hair, will have great enjoyments and so much wealth for 80,000 eons. Wherever that living being is, karma will always be generous. Like this, giving to the Buddhas is very profound and has a great result.
