One Step One Bow – Transference of Merit
Tulku Ashak Rinpoche, on 6th February 2010, led participants, in Taman Desa sports ground in one step one bow practice. This is a form of cultivation, resulting in merit accumulation. This merit cultivation is obtained through practice, whoever does it, merit will be obtained, akin to action and reaction, through one’s efforts and not others.
Completed the one step one bow ceremony, Rinpoche led all participants to transmit the merit to living beings in the dharma realms. This transmission would amplify the merit, having a big heart would result in this amplification of the virtue. If self centered and narrow minded, to keep it to yourself, the merit will also be limited.
The Buddha taught us to transmit the merit once obtained, however big or small, to Bodhi, dharma realms, all living beings, this is to open our hearts and enlarge the capacity, in completing the practice and the transfer of merit. “I vow all beings are well and happy free from sickness and suffering”. “All evil intentions are hindered”. “The cultivations of good deeds are speedily accomplished”.
A kind thought and virtuous action will obtain the blessings of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. The mind and the Buddha mind are in unison, resulting in auspicious responses.
To maintain purity of body, mind and speech in the one step one bow practice will ensure fulfillment of one’s vows.
What is cultivated as merit belongs to you and you alone none can deprive you of it, this is your sincere cultivation and true mind, and not through deceit or falsehoods. This merit will stand you in good stead from which you can draw upon in time of suffering or difficulties, besides obtaining blessings from Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in answer to your needs.
一步一拜回向
卓古阿萨任波切在二月六日领导大众在郊外岭运动场一步一拜是一种修行集的功德。功德是公修公得，婆修婆得，不修不得，一定要靠自己，决定不能仰赖别人。完成一步一拜所修集的功德，任波切带领回向法界一切众生，功德也是越回向越大。若不回向念念为自己，心量心，功德也就有限。
佛陀教我们所修的功德，不管大或小都应当回向菩提，回向众生，回向法界，这是拓展我们的心量，圆满修行的功德。"愿令众生常得安乐无诸病苦"。"欲行恶法。皆. 悉不成"。"所修善业。皆速成就"。
动一念善心，得到佛菩萨保佑，因为与佛心相应，感应道交。若用清净执持心佛名号，则有感应，这是任波切带领大众一步一拜心愿。所修的功德可以带走，不会舍离，因为功德是真心修的不是虚情假意修的。集的功德，遇到苦难，佛菩萨也会给你保佑。

Community Project for the Wellbeing of the Nation and Citizens and World Peace – 6th February 2010
Taman Desa Association has invited Tulku Ashak Rinpoche, from Qinghai, China to lead the residents and Buddhists, in a Buddhists practice of walking and bowing to the Buddha on 6th February 2010, starting at 7.00am at Taman Desa Sports Ground.

This walking and bowing is a very popular Buddhists cultivation. All are welcome to participate. Records of many devoted disciples of Buddha who have carried this out, some over several years, covering thousands of kilometers. There was a record of one monk who walked and bowed from Qinghai to Lhasa over two years. When he finished his practice he was elevated to Rinpoche, a high master status, in Vajrayana Buddhism.

Tulku Ashak Rinpoche is from Nangchen, Qinghai and specialises in Buddhists meditation and dharma education. His grandfather Drubthop Pema Dorie is a highly revered meditation master spending most of his life time meditating. Tulku Ashak Rinpoche is abbot of his Driya Duldol Ngagpa Ling Monastery in Nangchen, Qinghai and has 180 monks, ranging from five to seventy six years old.

Besides leading the walking and bowing practice, he will share with all participants how to maximize the merit and virtue of this cultivation to benefit yourself and others for the auspiciousness for you and family, and the well being of the nation and its citizens and in a wider perspective, for the world peace. This is the essence of Buddhism. Sadhu!

Ashak's Monastic School in Qinghai

We Rejoice with the News that the Monastic School Project headed by Head Master Chongpo Lobsang is now being taken over by Venerable Kungchok Sonan and his group from Germany, therefore we have decided to remove all the photos and forwarded to them as well. However, Venerable Ashak's monastry Dharma classes will still continue to provide the Buddha's teachings to the poor children in his Village and the new photos will be posted soon.

Your donation will continue to be channeled into this Monastic school as part of the Meditation Centre Project.

Your contribution no matter how small will help make a big difference in all those who are in need and for the humble simple life. With your contribution, you would have given the poor children access to proper education, shelter, meals and medicine. This is an opportunity for you to keep them from cold, hunger and illness.

"The Buddha once said that he or she who provides for the Sangha would obtain great Merit."
