Dorje Drolo Burns away the Karmic Obstacles and Afflictions of Sentient Beings
Grandmaster Lu Prays Sincerely for All Beings
The Homa Fire Burns away All Suffering of Sentient Beings
The primary purpose of our homa fire is:
First, to burn away our afflictions, our karmic obstacles, our illness karma, and all suffering—the suffering of all sentient beings.
We pray that:
- Those in wheelchairs may stand up.
- Those relying on crutches may discard them.
- The blind may see.
- The deaf may hear.
- The mute may speak.
- Growths within the body may swiftly disappear.
- Inflammation may cease.
- Pain may be alleviated.
- All illnesses may be eradicated.
This is the compassion of Medicine King Tara, the compassion of Dorje Drolo, the compassion of Guru Padmasambhava, the compassion of the 21 Taras, Tara Bodhisattva, and Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.
We sincerely pray for Medicine King Tara to bestow her nectar. We pray for Dorje Drolo to consume afflictions, illness, karmic obstacles, and suffering with his wrathful fire.This is my heartfelt and devoted prayer.
- Guru Padmasambhava Heart Mantra:
"Om, ah, hum, be-dza, gu-ru, beh-ma, sid-dhi, hum, seh." - Dorje Drolo Heart Mantra:
"Hung Hung Hung Hung Hung Hung Hung…" - Green Tara Heart Mantra:
"Om, da-lie, dou-da-lie, dou-lie, so-ha." (repeated three times) - Mahapratisara Bodhisattva Heart Mantra:
"Om, ma-ha-bo-la-di, sa-lao, so-ha." (repeated three times)
I humbly invoke the blessing decree of Golden Mother of the Jade Pond, of Amitabha Buddha, and of Kṣitigarbha Bodhisattva.
Second, for Shimu
Third, for Myself
May the buddhas and bodhisattvas show their boundless compassion. Medicine King Tara, Tara Bodhisattva, Guru Padmasambhava, and Dorje Drolo please alleviate the suffering and illnesses of all sentient beings. May the greatest miracles, the greatest blessings, and the strongest spiritual responses manifest.
We sincerely pray for the compassionate Medicine King Tara to bestow her divine nectar and for Dorje Drolo’s wrathful fire to burn away our karmic obstacles, afflictions, and suffering. First, we pray for all sentient beings. Second, we pray for Shimu. Third, I pray for myself.
"Pasa" (Lasso) represents the vajra lasso, which binds negative forces and casts them away while drawing in goodness. For those unable to attain rebirth in the pure land, this lasso guides them there. Thus, Amoghapasa ensures that all sincere prayers are fulfilled, using the vajra lasso to bring you what you need.
Next week at the Rainbow Temple, there will be an Amoghapasa Homa Ceremony.Amoghapasa Mantra is:
“Om, a-mo-ga, pi-she-ye, hum-pan-zha."
- The simplest mantra:
“Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum." - The Heart Mantra:
"Om-ah-hum, a-er-xi-ke, ni-er-xi-ke, na-mo, ba-ge-wa-di, hum-hum-pei.” - Another mantra:
"Hum, hum, hum, om-ah-hum, wa-ji-la, gu-ru. zhuo-luo, luo-ga, sa-er-wa, sid-dhi-hum-hum."
For example, if you have a scorpion-shaped Buddhist amulet, you can use it to bite away maras of illness, afflictions, suffering, and karmic obstacles. The method is simple:
- Press one of the scorpion’s pincers and chant "Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum." (seven times).
- Then, press the other pincer and chant "Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum." (seven times).
- Finally, pinch the scorpion’s tail and chant "Hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum, hum." (seven times).
As you do this, visualize all bad things being clamped by the scorpion’s pincers and discarded. It is as simple as that. Just visualize scorpion’s pincers clamping away bad things such as afflictions, suffering, and illness.
As the Amrita Descends, Shimu’s Body Becomes Warm and Energized
We hope that from now on, she won’t need to take medication and will always feel strong without it—that would be wonderful. Yesterday afternoon, while praying for the descent of the Amrita, her whole body became warm, and her energy was filled with spiritual vitality. She didn’t take any medication the entire evening, and yet she remained energized—this was her extraordinary response to the blessing.
As you all know, the flu has been spreading severely in Taiwan, the U.S., and many other places. So far, I haven’t received a flu shot, while most people have. I can’t say for sure whether I’ll catch it or not, especially since there were large crowds attending our ceremonies for two days, and of course, some people had the flu.
In fact, I drank about a whole bottle of Amrita water, praying that I would remain completely unaffected (audience applause).
(Master Lianyi shares:)
Yesterday, during the ceremony, when Grandmaster prayed, I saw azure Amrita descending from above, entering each person’s water bottle. I also had the sense that throughout the entire Saha world, every source of drinking water, including water from faucets, was transforming, drop by drop, into a radiant blue hue. Then, a light resembling the Buddha-nature appeared, and I saw it flickering within every individual.
(Reverend Lianyi replies:)
Yes, Grandmaster has taken me there.
Have you been to the Desire Realm (Kamadhatu)?
(Lianyi: Yes, I have.)
Have you been to the Formless Realm (Arupyadhatu)?
(Lianyi: Yes, I have.)
So, have you visited all the heavenly realms?
(Lianyi: Yes, Grandmaster took me to all of them.)
He has seen the full splendor of the Three Realms. Very well, please have a seat.

Disciples Experience Profound Spiritual Responses
Disciples Witness Strategic Design in the Void for the Descent of Amrita to the Human Realm
Master Lianjiu Shares a Testimony
(Master Lianjiu shares his experience:)
"Homage to Grandmaster! The Sound of Leizang Team traveled together to pay respects to Grandmaster and attend the ceremonies. One of our lead vocalists, Dharma Sister Jiayu, has long suffered from insomnia. Last night, after drinking several bottles of the Medicine King Tara nectar, she slept soundly. Thank you, Grandmaster!"
"Before yesterday’s ceremony began, my Dharma protectors instructed me to close my eyes and meditate. I could sense them arranging a sacred formation in the sky. They told me that Grandmaster would be inviting Medicine King Tara to descend and bestow nectar, so they were creating the largest formation to allow the nectar to descend upon the entire Saha world."
Wherever the nectar could bring nourishment and blessings, they found a way to direct it there, allowing the sacred nectar to permeate and enter the bodies of sentient beings.
(Vietnamese Dharma Brother shares:)
"Thank you, Grandmaster. My younger sister (Dharma Sister Lianhua Yunling) mentioned that although she did not directly participate in the ceremony yesterday, she had a spiritual response while flying here. She said that on the plane, she saw Medicine King Tara bestowing nectar to all sentient beings. Everyone was bathing in the river, cleansing their karmic obstacles.
When Grandmaster prayed to Medicine King Tara to bestow nectar to the beings, she saw that every participant’s water bottle had a single drop of nectar, which was infused into their bottle."
"In previous ceremonies of Golden Mother of the Jade Pond, she gave a very special nectar to Grandmaster to drink. Grandmaster asked, 'Such wonderful nectar, can it be given to all the disciples, one portion for each?' The Golden Mother of the Jade Pond replied, 'No! Because it is most important for you now.' But Grandmaster insisted, 'If my disciples can’t drink it, I won’t drink it.' This shows how compassionate Grandmaster truly is.
At yesterday’s Medicine King Tara Ceremony, I saw four types of nectar:
- Grandmaster’s Heart-Blood Nectar.
- The Nectar Bestowed by the Golden Mother of the Jade Pond.
- The Nectar of Medicine King Tara.
- The Nectar of Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva.
At that moment, I heard Grandmaster's voice in space, saying, 'This is Grandmaster's nectar, all my disciples can have a share. May the light of my inner non-hindrance flow into the hearts of every holy disciple. May they all be healthy and may each and every one of them swiftly attain Buddhahood.'"
"Grandmaster, everyone, How are you? This afternoon, I interviewed a Dharma Sister from the United States. Initially, I wanted to set up the video backstage, but due to poor internet connection, I couldn't.
She was injured four days ago and experienced a lot of pain. She continuously recited Grandmaster's mantra, and her pain began to lessen. Yesterday, when she attended the ceremony, she was unable to walk at first. A police officer was supporting her as she walked in with a cane. However, after receiving the empowerment, she no longer needed the cane and walked freely on her own. This confirmed Grandmaster's prayer: 'May those in wheelchairs stand up, and those with canes throw them away.'We are so grateful to Grandmaster."
Appreciation to Medicine King Tara and Dorje Drolo
Western Disciples Drink the Nectar
Their bodies are filled with the blessed energy
“I am Shan O’Kiely.
Before I came here yesterday, I had an accident on my couch, and I pulled my back and my hips are cracked. And when I left the hospital after seven hours, I was on the wheelchair.
And when I came home, I didn’t want to get the wheelchair out of my car, so I used my stick and then I slipped again and fell on my stairs of wood. And, the whole time that I was laying there, the first thing that came into my head was “King Tara”, and I started repeating the Mantra which I had not learnt but at that moment I knew it at my heart.
And then when I came yesterday to Lynnwood, Grand Master, I didn’t realize after I drank the water which I drank the whole time that you are blessing the water. I hold it to my forehead and that little couple of water was, I saw it in the vision of beautiful white light around me, and I thought it was like glitter, but it was like water that shooting out all around me, all around me, the water! And then when it was finished, I drank all that water and I felt it going into my body, and I felt the tingling.
And after that, I was talking with Charlotte and Angela, and I did not realize that they left my stick to aside. And when I walked into your auditorium. (audience applause)
And today I noticed when you are talking about “King Tara”, that when I drank the water after you were talking about “King Tara” again, that my bones at my back sort of popping back into place.
And I just want to tell you thank you so much for blessing all of us with your beautiful spirit.” (audience applause)
Strong White Light Entering the Bottle
Drinking the Nectar Without Need for Cane or Wheelchair
Walking Freely
When I got home, I didn't want to take the wheelchair out of the car, so I used a cane to support myself. Then, I tripped again on the wooden stairs. While lying on the ground, the first thing that came to my mind was Medicine King Tara. I began repeating her mantra, though I hadn’t officially learned it yet. But at that moment, I somehow understood it deeply in my heart.
When I came to the Lynnwood Event Center yesterday, I didn't realize that the water I drank contained all of Grandmaster’s empowerment. I placed the water bottle on my forehead, and through that small bottle, I saw a beautiful white light surrounding me. But what I actually saw was water continually flowing and washing over me. After drinking the water, I felt it spread throughout my body, accompanied by sharp tingling sensations.
Later, as I was chatting with Charlotte and Angela, I didn’t even realize that I had put the cane aside. Then, I walked into the hall (applause).
Today, when Grandmaster mentioned Medicine King Tara, I drank the water again. When Grandmaster spoke of her once more, I felt the bones in my body shifting back into place.
I just want to say thank you to Grandmaster! Thank you for using your beautiful soul to bless all of us. Thank you!" (audience applause)
"Grandmaster, how are you. Yesterday, during the Medicine King Tara Ceremony, my wife saw Grandmaster transform into Medicine King Tara and perform mudras during the ceremony. At first, she thought that, possibly, she might have seen this incorrectly. But after continuing to watch carefully for several more minutes, she saw that Medicine King Tara was, in fact, continuously forming mudras. At the end of the ceremony, Medicine King Tara transformed back into Grandmaster.
As for me, I saw Vajrasattva sitting next to Grandmaster. Thank you, Grandmaster!"
"Homage to Grandmaster. I would like to report to everyone that twice while Grandmaster was transmitting the teachings of Dorje Drolo, I saw scorpions and flames appear, helping everyone eradicate karmic obstacles."
"Grandmaster, yesterday morning, I was experiencing intense cardiac pain. How severe was it? I didn't tell anyone about it, except for mentioning to a reverend that I felt like I was going to die. The pain was very intense. However, when our logistics team began working, the cardiac pain completely disappeared. I had planned to go to the hospital because I couldn't even say a word due to the pain. After the ceremony ended, our logistics team continued working. By this time, the pain in my heart had completely vanished. Thank you, Grandmaster."
"Grandmaster, all the Masters, Reverends, and fellow disciples, good afternoon. Grandmaster, I have had kidney stones since I was in my thirties.
Starting from yesterday morning, the pain from the kidney stones was becoming increasingly intense. I massaged the area for a while, which relieved some of the pain. But it was strange, I was different from the others. After the Medicine King Tara Ceremony ended, the pain became especially unbearable. In the evening, I couldn't stand it anymore and told the Ayushmats with me, 'I can't eat, I need to leave.'
After enduring the pain all night, by morning, the pain had subsided a bit. I originally planned to return to Taiwan tonight because I heard that vaccines in the U.S. are expensive (laughter), and I wanted to hurry back to Taiwan to get vaccinated. However, after reporting to Grandmaster and speaking with him, Grandmaster blessed me by patting me. Afterward, when I went to the bathroom, something strange happened. I felt an itching sensation at my dantian and realized that my urinary tract had cleared from my urethra to my bladder.
So, over these two days, from yesterday’s intense pain to this morning’s relief, and then the pain completely disappearing when it was time for the Dorje Drolo homa, I experienced a total transformation from unbearable pain to now being free of pain. Thank you, Grandmaster!"
Appreciation to Medicine King Tara and Dorje Drolo
Om Mani Padme Hum."
