I visited world’s largest solid gold Buddha!
Dear friends, travelers, explorers, and those seeking spiritual blessings,
If you are in Bangkok, please go visit the most exquisite Lord Buddha in Wat Traimit. This Wat (Temple) is in Bangkok itself. I was flabbergasted at the beauty of this Buddha. In my short video I have described the background of this most serene Buddha upon sight takes your breath away. Our Thai friend Green recommended for us to visit. Thank you so much Green!
I love Buddha images so much since very young. It is a tremendous blessing to be in their presence. If you have the chance to visit Wat Traimit and sit in the presence of this Buddha then recite the 35 Confessional Buddha Sutra, Yonten Shigyurma, King of Prayers, Praise to Shakyamuni by Tsongkapa, Medicine Buddha practice or any practice you know in the presence of this most sacred image. Make it a point to visit. Or you can simply sit and meditate for a while.
Much care, much blessings and much prayers,
Tsem Rinpoche
This is the Wat Traimit… which houses the 15 foot solid gold Buddha weighing many tons… Beautiful…
This was a pleasant surprise… we found Dzambala at this Wat Traimit also…
A second Dzambala statue at this Wat (Temple)…
I love Buddha so much. I love all images of Buddha from any country!! I feel so fortunate to have come across Buddha and His Dharma. May I have this fortune in all future lives. I love you Buddha from the depths of my heart. Tsem Rinpoche
This is stunning! Thank you for sharing these pictures with us Rinpoche. You can feel the serenity and blessings through the photo alone. Really beautiful. The temple is stunning too – such brilliant architecture. I love seeing how much devotion the thais have for Buddhism and their religion there; their love and devotion is clear in the amount of effort, detail and care they put into religious sites and places of worship. the energy pervades the whole country and people. Thank you again Rinpoche for all the updates in BKK
Dear Your Eminence,
I was watching your video clip and noticed that Y.E.’s voice sounded a bit deep, like you are catching a cold. Indeed, from your latest blog, you have indicated that you are catching a cold.
I pray that you would get well very soon, and that you could continue with your present work that benefits many people that follow your work every where you go to.
May your Dharma talk continue to reach many people and transform their mind, thus, improving their daily lives!
Kind Regards,
John
Dear Rinpoche:
I really liked the story behind this Buddha image. It is interesting how this Buddha image ended up in Wat Traimit. I can imagine the disguise was so good and people didn’t take notice of what’s within.
This also reflects how interesting to see people didn’t pay much attention because it was a plastered Buddha image, and when people found out it was real gold, people went “wow”. This really showed how attached we are to material stuff.
I rejoice very much to be able to visit many many temples in Thailand and see how devoted and respectful they are towards Buddhism. So much to see, so much to learn.
Thankyou Rinpoche for this opportunity.
Oh, I would also comment that Seng Piow’s videography is superb!!!
Love the last bit on how the door closes towards the end of the video, what a neat ending!
Dear Ethan,
Seng Piow works very hard single handedly on all the videos. He films, edits, renders, uploads all on his own. He is very enthusiastic about it always. Sometimes he works 10 hours a day editing and uploading. He said he would like to get the dharma talks up to share as it will benefit. It is how thinks and his motivation. I am so glad you recognize his hard work. Thank you very much. I hope you are well always…. Tsem Rinpoche
Dear Rinpoche, thank you very much for all the photos, updates and talks on your trip in Bangkok. Seeing the Golden Buddha image again is such a blessing for me as the last time i went to this temple was 4 years ago. At that time i started to like and see Buddha images and understand the history behind it. I am so happy to know that i can and should recite the prayers which i have learnt in Kechara. I love the first Dzambala statue image, didnt see it on my trip. Thank you to Seng Piow and all who are with Rinpoche and helping to get the infor to all of us.
亲爱的仁波切与学徒们，
谢谢大家，为了我们四处寻找关于佛陀的一切！ 日后我们也可以跟随着这些资料去朝圣！
从录音里，仁波切好像感冒了。 希望可以快点好起来！
好期待在马来西亚也会有更多诚心的佛教徒，为各大寺庙维持佛法！
所谓 ： 建庙容易，维持难！
Dear Rinpoche,
Thank so much for the photos and video.
I watched the video it is very nice. This Buddha and Dzambala are very beautiful.
