Connect With Guru Rinpoche

A Date with Guru Rinpoche

One Voice. One Prayer. Infinite Blessings

An Immersive Experience Led by Singha Rinpoche!

Come together for an empowering two-day experience to connect with the blessings of Guru Rinpoche. Through guided prayer sessions and deep engagement in Guru Rinpoche’s practices, led by the wisdom of Singha Rinpoche, you’ll receive the tools and teachings to strengthen your spiritual path.
As we listen to the Dharma and place our trust in the transformative power of prayer, we open the door to healing and positive change—both within ourselves and in the world around us.

Great Lamas have always turned to Guru Rinpoche in times of great challenge, praying to overcome obstacles and avert calamities. Let’s unite in offering prayers and supplications to Guru Rinpoche, accumulating immense merit for our own spiritual awakening and for the benefit of all sentient beings.

Together, we can manifest a wave of compassion, wisdom, and transformation.

Why wait? Be a part of a million voices and receive infinite blessings from Guru Rinpoche. Grab your ticket now to experience the power of prayers and blessings!

Deepen your connection with Guru Rinpoche

Guru Rinpoche is always there for everyone, including you and me. Many have felt the presence of his blessings during past years of Guru Bumtsog, and cried after feeling the strong energy and love. We encourage all to come together to generate the faith and devotion to him, keeping the flame of hope alive that we can transcend our old self through the practice of supplicating to Guru Rinpoche!

Doesn’t matter where you are, as long as you have the heart to connect with Guru Rinpoche, we want you to join us in this event!

Offer Tsog for a great wealth of benefits

Making offerings is an important part of our Buddhist practice, as it will help us to gather a collection of merits for success in our spiritual and worldly aspirations. We strongly encourage our participants to offer Tsog as part of the offerings to request Guru Rinpoche for his swift and powerful protection and blessings!

The offering of Tsog on this special occasion not only helps us in gaining vast merits, it is also helpful in purifying obstacles, obscurations and negativities that hinder our path to enlightenment.

Receive precious heart teachings

Our Guru, Singha Rinpoche, will be giving teachings throughout the event. As Buddhists, we attend teachings to gain wisdom to overcome our ignorant minds as we journey on our path to enlightenment. Something special about receiving teachings in an immersive setting is that it allows us the time and space to contemplate the Dharma.

Various topics relating to Vajrayana and Guru Rinpoche will be taught. Come and listen to our Guru’s teachings live and online to receive the precious nectar of wisdom!

About Guru Rinpoche

Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava (Lotus-Born Guru) is a fully enlightened being prophesied by Buddha Shakyamuni to spread Dharma in the age of degeneration. Guru Rinpoche is known to have performed many miracles and subdued spirits and demons to establish Samye Monastery, the first Buddhist monastery in Tibet. He is also the central figure who taught Vajrayana Buddhism in the Himalayan region, bringing about the widespread prosperity of Dharma on the Tibetan plateau.
By engaging in Guru Rinpoche practices with great devotion, one can eliminate obstacles on the path and achieve success in Dharma endeavors as well as personal growth and breakthroughs.
During this event, we will be reciting the following prayers, with commentary and guidance by Singha Rinpoche:

Guru Rinpoche Mantra

Retreat Venue

Thekchen Choling (Malaysia) Kota Tinggi

Lot 691 Tai Hong Village, Kota Tinggi, Malaysia, 81900

In late 2013, a two-acre piece of land in Kota Tinggi was consecrated by Singha Rinpoche. This plot of land became Thekchen Choling (Malaysia) in Kota Tinggi after the construction in 2014. The Grand Opening Ceremony of Thekchen Choling (Malaysia) Kota Tinggi was held on 19 June 2016 and graced by Guest of Honour, YB Datuk Tee Siew Kiong and our precious guru, Singha Rinpoche.
At Thekchen Choling (Malaysia) in Kota Tinggi, there are many precious holy objects. Specially commissioned by Singha Rinpoche, a magnificent Rupa of Thousand-Armed Chenrezig stands at 14m tall and is beautifully adorned with pearls, corals, turquoise and dzi-beads. This Rupa is the largest representation of Avalokitesvara in Tibetan style outside of China that has been accurately represented and traditionally filled with tsung in the Vajrayana Buddhist tradition under the personal guidance of His Eminence the 6th Kyabje Jhado Rinpoche.
Other precious holy objects include Rupas of Guru Rinpoche and his two consorts, as well as Eight Stupas for auspiciousness. There are also two giant Mani Wheels that are going to be consecrated on the second day of the Connect with Guru Rinpoche event!

Reminisces of GBC
2020 – 2023

I am present in front of anyone who has faith in me,
just as the moon casts its reflection, effortlessly, in any vessel filled with water.

Guru Rinpoche

Sacred Mirror

The Sacred Mirror represents consciousness and the element of space. Clear, pure and bright, the mirror reflects all phenomena objectively without bias, thereby reminding us to practice objectivity and to rise above our judgmental minds. On a more subtle level, it reflects the Buddha’s core teaching of emptiness – that nothing exists on its own side without a dependent arising cause.

Pinnacle of the mirror

The pinnacle of the mirror, formed by the white crescent moon, flaming red sun and an orange flame of fire, represents the completion stage of Vajrayana practice.

Light Rays

The light rays radiating from the Sacred Mirror represent the flourishing of the Buddha’s teachings, fanning out to the furthest reaches of the universe.

Full Moon Disc

The moon disc represents Bodhicitta, the aspiration to become a Buddha to benefit all sentient beings.

Blue Lotus

Divinely fragrant, blue lotuses bloomed only in the Buddha’s time. By incorporating it into the temple’s logo, it is symbolic of the ever-present Buddha in Thekchen Choling. Moreover, a lotus flower represents purity, perfection, compassion and renunciation, similar to how the beautiful lotus remains untainted even though it had arisen out from the muddy waters.

Nine Precious Jewels

These nine precious jewels represent the Guru, Buddha, Dharma, Sangha, yidam or mind-seal deity, Dharma protector, the sky, earth, and the human realm.

Two Dragons

The two dragons represent continuity and harmony and create the cause for the temple to enjoy the strong support of members and benefactors for Dharma to flourish.

Golden Khata

The flowing golden khata represents the auspicious increase of all Dharma activities.

The Seven Gems of the Chakravartin or a Wheel-Turning King

1. The precious horse represented by a unicorn’s horn

2. The precious elephant represented by its tusks

3. The precious queen represented by round golden earrings

4. The precious minister represented by square golden earrings

5. The precious general represented by a pair of crossed swords

6. The precious jewel represented by the triple-eyed gem

7. The precious Dharma wheel represented by a branch of coral
