Compassion, Stupa & Khenlopchoe Sum
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Avalokiteshvara (Chenrezig) promised Amitabha Bhuddha that he want to remove the sufferings of all sentient beings. After his promise, he meditated for 100 million aeona. After his meditation he thought that there is no more sufferings but later realised that less than one quarter has been sent to pureland and more than three quarter is still suffering. Because of his compassion for all sentient beings, his tears dropped. Immediately the tears grew two god princess named Gang Cheng and Gang Chuung. Gang Chuung went to the garden of the god Level to pick flowers. This broke the God law and she was sent down to the human level. Immediately she was born as Jazima ( Chicken Keeper) in Nepal. Jazima has three husbands. With each husband she gave birth to one son. The mother wanted to build stupas. The three son asked the mother, " what is stupa?". The mother explained that a stupa is the heart of many buddhas. It is also place for all sentient beings to offer and pray. She also said that her yidam is making stupa. (Yi means mind and dam means choice). Stupa blessings will bring world peace and clearing of four element obstacles. Prayer and circumambulations if countinously done will enable one to reach pureland. With the help of the three sons, one elephant, one donkey and one girl helper (cook) the stupa was completed in Seven years. As a result of this great merit, the eldest son was born as Manjusheriye reincarnate, King Tresong Dedtsen of Tibet. The second brother was born in Mendri (Himalaya) as Khenchen Boddhisato, who has great knowledge. The third brother was lotus-born as Padmasambhava, in Udinaya lake. The mother passed away four years later before the completion of the stupa. She was born in Pureland. The female helper also reached Pureland in one lifetime. Since the three sons want to all help sentient beings they chose to reincarnate in this world.
