Due to prayer made in the times of yore by gods and goddesses, the
South Pole star of crystal water (Karma Rekhey) faces the cosmic Buddha
Vairocana at Mount Meru for period of a week. In so doing, the nectar
of auspicious blessing drizzles from the blue to the realms of beings to
rinse out the sin of wrongdoings. This event happens once every twelve
month but however the precise timing for the start of such auspicious
episode is determined only by astrologers. During the week long period of
showery blessing, all the water bodies of the universe are stirred with
the ambrosia that can get rid of all the worldly impurities. This deletion of
impurities shall not be limited only to Buddhist, but to all the sentient
beings regardless of religion; it’s like a patient who is benefited not
considering of whether she beliefs to the medicine or not. However, there would
be slight distinction in the quality of merits gained depending on the strength
of belief you cultivate during the event of receiving such blessing.
So, brothers and sisters let us analyze it carefully and
start new tradition of spiritual practice at that particular day for
the wellbeing of our-self and others. The gods and goddesses will be
pleased to see the change in us, and inspired to make another similar prayer
for our benefit in the days to come. HAPPY BLESSING RAINY DAY
