May bodhicitta, precious and sublime, arise where it has not yet come to be. Where it has arisen may it never fail, but grow and flourish more and more.

      About Mangala Shri Bhuti

      MSB is a part of the Longchen Nyingtik and Khyen-Kong-Chok-Sum lineages. (Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo, Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye, and Terton Chokgyur Lingpa, collectively known as Khyen-Kong-Chok-Sum, were the heart of the Rimรฉ, or nonsectarian, movement, which did so much to preserve and harmonize all schools of Tibetan Buddhism in the nineteenth century.)ย

Rinpoche releasing a lobster into the sea Rinpoche leads us in the practice of tsetar or life releaseseveral times a year in Portland, Maine. These events happen the day after Rinpoche’s Pema Osel teaching programs. Anyone and everyone is welcome to join in, either by attending in person or by contributing to the purchase of live lobsters. Life release is a traditional practice in Buddhism, and in addition to saving lives, we offer the merit of this virtuous activity to those who are suffering, who have passed away, and to all sentient beings wandering in samsara. You are welcome to make a prayer request in connection with your offering to life release. If you plan on attending the life release in person, please check Rinpoche’s Facebook page on the morning of the release for information about the exact time and location.
