Barom Kagyu Aspiration Prayer
“Gurus, Yadams, Viras, Dakinis and Dharmapalas:
I pray that you consider me and cause the fulfillment of my aspirations.
Through the virtues of samsara and nirvana
Accumulated by me and others in the three times,
And the virtue of this aspiration,
May I and all others achieve Buddhahood.”
Teachings & Practices
Mahamudra Ngondro
Ngondro is extremely important in dharma practice.
When we are learning dharma, the most importance is generating bodhicitta mind. All of you come here to learn Ngondro and the purpose should not be just for yourselves. We are here learning Ngondro to bring benefits to all the sentient beings. All sentient beings are like our mother. You can observe your mother in this life. How much she cares of us, how much she loves us, how much she concentrates on us. You should think this way: I wish to take the mother sentient beings to the enlightenment. That’s the reason I practise four ordinary foundations and four extraordinary foundations.
Why do we need to generate bodhicitta mind? Because generating bodhicitta mind and without generating bodhicitta mind when we practise Dharma bringsdifferent result. I can give you an example: with bodhicitta mind, it is like lighting a candle in a dark room, the brightness can spread to the whole area. Without generating bodhicitta mind, it is like when you light up a candle covered by a cup, it only benefits a small area. Generating bodhicitta mind and without generating bodhicitta mind can make such difference. That’s the reason why generating bodhicitta mind is extremely important to whatever thing we do. When we do Dharma practice, when we do charity, whatever we do, if we can have bodhicitta mind, then everything is pure, everything is beneficial to ourselves and all sentient beings. So, with bodhicitta mind, you will start receiving the teaching of the four ordinary foundations.

Lama chenno
Namo Gurube. Prayers Calling the Lama from Afar are known to everyone. The key to invoking blessing is devotion motivated by repentance of old ways and renunciation of samsara. This devotion is not a mere repetition of empty words but it comes from the depth of our heart, from the marrow of our bones, and from the conviction that there is no Buddha apart from the Lama
Precious Teachings of H.E Sangye Nyenpa Rinpoche's to the Barom Kagyu Disciples
“If you don’t apply the doctrines of the Buddha then even there are hundreds thousands of Teachers come around so no use. So therefore number of meeting Masters is not important - the number of applying what you have learned into the life is the most crucial and important.”

Prayer for the Recently Deceased
In Tibetan Buddhism, death is an extremely important event. For 49 days after the departing of a person, the monks will pray daily for the deceased to experience a smooth journey through the Bardo and to achieve a rebirth in the high realms. The Phowa prayers are extremely powerful as they purify the deceased of their negative Karma. Prayers are dedicated to Dorje Sempa Buddha, Medicine Buddha and to Amitabha Buddha.
