Om Retreat 2013 by Om Centre




Directly back from China Chengdu in early morning, I am glad that I decided to go ahead to attend the Om retreat held at Tai Pei Buddhist Centre led by H.E. Nubpa Rinpoche, Ven. Rabsang Rinpoche, Lama Dawa and Lamas from Drikung Kagyu Rinchen Ling in the afternoon after a short rest in the morning to replenish my energy despite the haze.
However, I was told I had missed a good initiation teaching in the morning :-(
Nevertheless, I was contented with the subsequent sessions and oh. how long we had not enjoyed Lama Dawa's rhythm of chant.  Really missed it! and it's like back to good old days...:-)
Oh, the starting long chant before the actual chant is really nice too that prepares our mind for the chanting...


Personally, I like the ambience, with the backing of Buddha's shining image radiating blessing to all of us in the hall. I would like to think that our chanting had helped to reduce the haze problem in Singapore and hopefully it will be cleared in neighbouring countries too. 
And it is Good news that Om Centre had announced they will be holding their Jun Om retreat annually!
