Blessing Balm,
Blessing Pills & Bracelets
Our beloved Garchen Rinpoche has kindly offered clear instructions regarding how to use these blessing items. In these instructions he mentions three things we should do:
- Apply Blessing Balm from the Gyanagma Prayer Wheel to our nostrils daily
The holy Gyanagma Prayer Wheel is at Gargon Monastery. It is a sacred relic that has not stopped spinning for many decades. The balm is made from a buttery salve used to keep this prayer wheel spinning. This is the balm Rinpoche uses to bless us, and ritual items. Rinpoche has said we only need apply the smallest discernible amount.
- Take Blessing Pills (dutsi)
These pills are blessed by H.E. Garchen Rinpoche and other monastics during elaborate ritual ceremonies that lasts many days. It is considered a sacred medicine for sentient beings, helping to promote physical and spiritual well-being.
We have a limited supply of the pills. H.E. Garchen Rinpoche has advised each of us to dissolve one pill in a bottle of water and to take one sip each day. This method will have the same benefit and let your supply last longer.
- Wear Liberation on Sight bracelets
