Book 148: The Power of Mantra

We would like to express a big thank you to Yew Chung Cheng
for the tremendous work he did in making the newly translated English book entitled The Power of Mantra possible!!!

Another special thank you to Yew Chung Cheng for allowing our site to post the book!!!

Congratulations to the birth of the Power of Mantra book. May our beloved Root Guru Padmakumara, Living Buddha Lian-sheng be safe and healthy. May the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Dharma Protectors bless the Translator, Editor, and Publisher for making the dream of this book come true.

Amen to that. I just received my copy last week and I'd like to donate some money to the Singapore Lei Zang Tse but I do not know how, besides mailing a money order or cheque to the address. I was wondering if they accept credit card.

Making a donation is a very worthwhile cause. The money will help them to continue doing their good work and providing printed copies freely.

In the True Buddha School Sangha, making a donation upon receipt of Dharma is well thought of - it means that you value what has been given to you and that you don't make a hollow request to simply take. Good merit to you celestialmaiden!

I always think it funny how many people take things for granted if they are free. Too many people lack appreciation. Imagine, where would the world be if Hotmail became a pay for service! Or if you had to pay for oxygen! Sometimes people value say a Mercedes as being very valuable because they are told it costs $$$$$$. The same person may take for granted the blessing given by the Guru because he gives it for free. In truth, the blessing may save you kalpas of needless suffering while fast car may inflame your ego. I always believe that those who show appreciation and gratitude for what they recieve are always well looked after and loved in life. It brings you towards contentment.

It is my understanding that this is why traditional Tibetans often make learning so hard and slow - so that you really value and 100% appreciate every little drop you get!!! Sometimes I even think that the internet helps de-sensitise  us to information as it's so free and easy. Then I remember I'm a web designer and I shut up!  ;D

If you visit http://www.padmakumara.org/books/book148/bookReview.shtml you will find the address and email of True Buddha Publications who can help you to make your donation. Alternatively, you can send your donation to Singapore Lei Zang Si - address found at http://world.tbsn.org/default_band.asp?url=sg

Tom

I hope that everyone can think like Tom. I also requested for the books, and I donated money. I did donate much more than the cost of the book, but it is nothing comparing to the effort people put into.

Like Tom said, image if everyone takes things for granted? Besides, this is a powerful book, if people take it for granted, maybe there is some karma involved. we will **owe* someone! I dont want to have any debts.

Just remember, it is bit hard to send them cash, try to use money order or cash if you can

Mimosa

This might be a redundant question but does anyone know how much this book would cost? im actually not sure why im asking even... i just felt inclined to know perhaps ill need to know it in the future or something... lol

I would also like to take this opportunity to THANK Yew Chung Cheng for his assistance with my book order.

Instead of sending a money order or an international cheque, I made a electronic deposit from my bank. Fast and safe.

If any one is interested in making a electronic deposit, let me know.  Hopefully Yew Chung Cheng can post that information here or, with his permission, I can post that information.

Anxiously waiting for my books  ;)

That is a good idea.
Please post the information here or send it to my email address.

Thanks,
May.

What a great idea! Yes, please do post the information or send it to me. Please and Thank you.
