Yen Shan Tang True buddha Order
on 10 Dec and 11 Dec
Yellow Jambhala Blessing Ceremony and
Amitabha Buddha Blessing and Bardo Ceremony
with Blessing Empowerments
Yellow Jambhala :
Yellow Jambhala is an emanation of Lord Vaisravana, who is in turn one of the “Four Great World-protecting Heavenly Kings”. He is the guardian of light in Buddhism, a great charitable deity who grants fortune and protection. Lord Vaisravana lives in the northern region under the Four Heavens, at the northern crystal palace on the fourth level of Mount Sumeru. His servants are either yaksas or bhaisajya-yaksas. According to the Commentary on Lotus Sutra, this heavenly king is extremely knowledgeable as his perpetual protection of the Buddhas has enabled him to receive many teachings
Yellow Jambhala is one of the Eight Principal Deities of our True Buddha School. His Holiness Living Buddha Lian-sheng feels that although there are many rich True Buddha disciples, there are also many that are poor. This latter group of disciples wishes to learn a practice that can extricate them from poverty. This is why Yellow Jambhala is being upheld as one of True Buddha School’s Eight Principal Deities. It is hoped that with the great blessings of Yellow Jambhala, True Buddha School’s teachings will be propagated worldwide to salvage all sentient beings. This shall also fulfill our mission to popularize Buddhism.
Amitabha Buddha :
Among all Buddhas, Amitabha Buddha made the greatest vows of compassion and the vows I made exactly match the vows of [Amitabha] Buddha in delivering sentient beings.
Amitābha is a celestial buddha described in the scriptures of the Mahāyāna school of Buddhism. Amitābha is the principal buddha in the Pure Land sect, a branch of Buddhism practiced mainly in East Asia, while in Vajrayana Amitābha is known for his longevity attribute and the aggregate of distinguishing (recognition) and the deep awareness of individualities. According to these scriptures, Amitābha possesses infinite merits resulting from good deeds over countless past lives as a bodhisattva named Dharmakāra. “Amitābha” is translatable as “Infinite Light,” hence Amitābha is often called “The Buddha of Infinite Light.”
