This Puja is about the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara and the skilful
means to prevail upon all sentient beings the quality of compassion
and thus pervade in their mental continuum.The Beautiful Ritual of
Mani Rildub was developed through the inspiration of the great
spiritual quality of compassion of Avalokiteshwara, whose mental
aspect embodies the compassion of all the Victories Ones. It comes
from the pith instruction in the tradition of the great
compassionate Mahasiddha Tsembupa. The Mani Rildub Propitiatory
Puja, when performs in a perfect manner of silent recitation of six
worded mantra, Om Mani Padme Hung, instils the blessings of all the
objects of refuge (such as: Root and Lineage Gurus; Tutelary
Deities; Buddhas and Bodhisattvas; Sharvaka, Pratekabuddha;Dharma
Protectors; and Wealth Deities) and all the energies and
delicacies; and tastes of animate and inanimate world, into the
nectar. Thus having absorbed the blessings into the nectar pills,
whoever partake these nectar pills will become free from
defilements and negativities; will accomplish two accumulations;
and will fulfil the two purposes.
Moreover, whoever make offering and propitiate this in the form of
Shrine (Arya Avalokiteshvara), be endowed with the power to bestow
spiritual accomplishments; will get rid of temporary sickness and
obstacles caused by demonic forces, and one will be saved from the
agony of three lower transmigrations.
In summary,The Chenrezig Mani Rildub Ritual when performed
skilfully infuses the great compassion of Avaloketeshwara into our
hearts through the method of pills propitiatory Puja to help the
suffering beings. This is the tradition of the great practitioner
Tsembupa who had special link with the Bodhisattva
Avaloketeshwara.
