Mantra Recitations
Mantras for Forgetfulness
Rinpoche sent the following advice to a monk at Kopan Monastery who was forgetting many things. For example, when the monk called somebody on the telephone, he forgot who he was calling.
My advice is that you need to receive tromo-metseg long mantra. Recite the long mantra ten times a day and also recite the short mantra five times a day.
Also recite dorje-nam-jom-pa ( Skt: Vajravidarana) mantra.
With much love and prayers...

Translator’s dedication
May this translation, which makes available this advice from Buddha, offer great benefit to sentient beings, immediately and instantly pacifying the anger of others in the family, outside, in the office, or wherever, and be able to bring so much peace, happiness, and harmony in life, like the sun shining. May it be able to stop harm being given to others; may only benefit and loving kindness, compassionate thought and bodhicitta be generated toward others. May everyone live their lives only with loving kindness, compassion, and benefit for each other, without one single harm, and in this way may the whole world be filled with so much peace and happiness, individually and globally. May there be no war, famine, disease, torture, pain, danger of water, tornadoes, earth, wind, fire, and so forth.
This method was given by Buddha to benefit sentient beings, to pacify their sufferings, and to fulfill their wishes for happiness. This mantra is from the Kangyur, the translated direct teachings of Buddha.

Benefits of Namgyalma Mantra
Rinpoche gave the following advice about the long Namgyalma mantra.
The Namgyalma mantra is extremely powerful. If you put this mantra on a mountain, then the whole mountain is blessed and any human beings, animals or insects who touch or climb the mountain have their negative karma purified just through that. They are not reborn in the lower realms.
If you have this mantra on a banner, even the shadow from the banner purifies the negative karma of any being it touches.
Similarly, if the mantra is in a house, all beings in the house—not only human beings, but also cats, dogs elephants, dinosaurs, ants, bugs or flies—are purified and liberated from the lower realms.
It is excellent to have many of these mantras in your car, on the inside of the roof. Then, every day people are blessed, purified and liberated from the lower realms.
This is the main mantra for purifying and liberating from the lower realms—purifying negative karma by putting the mantra on the body of a person who has died or chanting it for a person who has died.
A numberless billion, zillion, trillion thanks to you. There are no words to express your support, donations and service.
With biggest love...
Buddha Rinchen Tsugtor Chen Mantra
Rinpoche advised the following mantra for Buddha Rinchen Tsugtor Chen, for protection from the three lower realms. As soon as someone dies, this mantra can be recited loudly in their ear.
CHOM DÄN DÄ DE ZHIN SHEG PA DRA CHOM PA YANG DAG PAR DZOG PÄI SANG GYÄ RIN CHHEN TSUG TOR CHÄN LA CHHAG TSHÄL LO
To Bhagavan, Tathagata, Arhat, Perfectly Complete Buddha, Precious Ushnisha, I prostrate.
By hearing this mantra one will never be reborn in the lower realms, will be liberated, and will be able to enlighten all sentient beings from the oceans of samsara.
Mantra to Pacify Anger and Dislike
Rinpoche gave this mantra to a nun to pacify her boss’s anger and dislike toward her, and also to use if other people were to get angry with her.
This advice was given to a nun at Deer Park because her boss in the jail where she worked disliked the advice she had given to a prisoner who was having suicidal thoughts. Rinpoche gave this mantra to her to pacify the boss’s anger and dislike toward her, and also to use if the prisoners were to get angry with her.
This mantra can also be used when there are problems in families, for people who are angry at you, in your work or in organizations, anywhere. Whenever you encounter problems, you can use this to change people’s minds and make them have affectionate love toward you.
