Setrap Puja in Penang
Dear rinpoche, as our weekly setrap puja attendees has grown to about 12 people, tonight we have set up our puja on the second floor above the outlet so that we have more space. The photo shows some of the attendees. From patsy.

Beautiful Kechara Paradise Outlet in Pinang.
Sacred Setrap in Pinang outlet. You must go and make offerings to this setrap. Make a wish. When you go to Pinang, it is a mst to visit this special Setrap image. It is very holy. If you live in Pinang, you should visit on a regular basis and recieve blessings from this sacred image of Protector Setrap. (above)
I've known Patsy for over 10 years. She is gracious, generous, straightforward, a great host and also someone who really can take alot of pressure.
Many years back, I use to visit Pinang and I would stay in her lovely home with her family. Soon Li, her husband and I use to have our little spiritual talks in his tv room. He's very supportive of her very much too. He's a nice person.
Just like many families, sometimes luck goes up and down.. Well that happened to this family so I recommended a series of things for Patsy to do and she did it all. One of them was to recite her protector's mantra 10 million times. Shocked at first at the number, but she did it without complaining. It took her a few years but she did it and now the family is back on track and ok. I am so happy for them. She really wants others to experience the blessings of dharma.
Then Patsy approached me to do more dharma work in Pinang. I hesitatingly agreed and she raised the funds, did the renovations and started a Kechcara Paradise Outlet( http://www.kechara.com/paradise/ ) (our fifth outlet) in Pinang. She operates the outlet herself. The amazing thing is she wants to do this to repay the kindness of dharma. Wow!
Now she has a growing group of friends who would like to experience the blessings of Setrap and they all offer puja together. How beautiful.
Patsy has come a long way and I am truly proud of her. She still comes down to KL often to do dharma work in our Mother branch of Kechara in Kuala Lumpur.

Thank you Patsy for your effort up north. I am happy that people in my kampung has the chance to be part of Kechara too
Keep up the good work and see you soon in KL!
Thank you Amazing Patsy for single handedly opening up KP Penang:D It has brought tremendous joy to me whenever I receive news from KP Penang and whenever u come to KL to visit mother Kechara here!
We all love you and what you’re doing there and hope it will grow and manifest to a mini KH there in the future!
Love love love,
JJ
Dear Patsy, you are a shining example of Guru Devotion.Your perseverance and steadfast completion of reciting 10 million mantras of your protector is testimony of that.
Your love for Dharma, Kechara and Rinpoche had moved you to start KP Penang so that it becomes another gateway for northerners and Penangites to connect with our blessed lineage and Lama.This is such a wonderful way to bless the people and family members from your state and to repay their kindness.
I am in about the same ‘ grandparent’age group with you and would have been doing nothing much, other than exhausting whatever little merit I had in mundane activities like badmminton,watching cherry blossoms, mahjong,reading papers and gossip magazines.
We are so fortunate Rinpoche had given all of us meaningful responsibilities and practices to purify our bad karma and to top up merits. This will protect us from going down in future lifetimes so that we can leave this world happy knowing this.
You know the more you meet the people who make up the 12 departments in kechara you begin to realise that these people really make Dharma their life. Here we see another example of what happens when a person takes Rinpoche’s advice. Happiness, success, and a life more meaningful, its infectious and definitely better than our stupid illusions of mortgage, house, money, career, car, credit cards, babies, business, and parties.
You can have all that but throw in some Dharma too, thats what Rinpoche always says! But you know what the funny thing is? You find yourself doing less and less of the Samsaric things and gravitating yourself to a more Dharmic / Spiritual existence.
Penang Setrap Puja team is growing. Really thanked all the hard work behind in setting up the puja. We have a blend of study group now. Thanks Patsy for the continuous effort to share all your Dharma learning.
A big thank you to you Patsy for bringing Kechara House to Penang. Very grateful that i’ve the chance to attend Setrap Puja here!
Kam Siah!
Patsy’s DEVOTION, DEDICATION and GOOD INTENTIONS is a good example for others to follow – Jess’s uncomplaining demeanour is also an INSPIRATION. That’s how good things grow – we have to INSPIRE each other!
Without Patsy there will be no setrap puja for our Penang group,thank to her effort to bring the sacred setrap pratice that benefits all of us in Penang.
