"If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficult situations and problems. With this strength, your problems will seem less significant and bothersome. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm. This is a clear example of how one's way of thinking can really make a difference." ~ His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso |

“The Namgyälma mantra is very powerful for purifying negative karma. Anyone who sees or touches this Namgyälma mantra sticker will have their negative karma purified. Even if someone is touched by the shadow of the car or house that has this sticker on it, their negative karma is purified. If you have it in the house or on your car, then all the animals and people who come into contact with your house or car are blessed. If you have the Namgyälma mantra above your house, for example on a banner prayer flag at the very top, then the negative karma of anyone who enters the house will be purified and they won’t be born in the lower realms..." Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Get decals at the center or print out copies by clicking on the image!
