Why Seek Blessing When You Can Create Your Own by Dd Tan Huat Chye
In many cultures, the concept of blessing is synonymous with acquiring wealth, safety, good luck, good health, and overall happiness—essentially, a means to alleviate suffering. Traditionally, people engage in various rites, rituals, and spiritual ceremonies, praying to statues, trees, or other revered icons, and even consulting spiritual mediums, all in pursuit of these blessings. However, in the profound teachings of the Mangala Sutta, the Buddha offers a different perspective—providing 38 guides to create blessings on your own. This video captures the Dhamma sharing by Dd Tan Huat Chye, the founder of d'CRADLE, during the GLAD 14 revisit on a refresher tour in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, on September 17, 2023. It covers half of the 38 ways or techniques of blessings outlined in the Mangala Sutta. The intention is to shed light on how individuals can cultivate their own blessings, offering a transformative alternative to the conventional methods that often consume significant energy and resources. This sharing serves as a valuable reminder that the power to cultivate positive qualities and blessings lies within each individual, offering a more accessible and sustainable approach to a life filled with well-being and contentment.
