Beginning Anew

Beginning Anew is a simple but powerful healing practice that can help to resolve our unhappiness towards others as well as nourish our good feelings towards them.

It starts with showing or expressing our appreciation to a particular person. It is then followed by apologizing for any wrong doings that we have committed towards the person. It ends with seeking clarification on whether something has been done which has hurt the person. In this way, not only are misunderstandings clarified, mutual understanding will also increase.

About Me

I was borned into a Taoist family and have been a Buddhist since my school days. However, the real turning point is in the year 2000 when I renewed my refuge in the 3 Jewels with Kangyurwa Khensur Rinpoche and received extensive teachings overseas as well as those organized by Amitabha Buddhist Centre over the years. My teachers include His Holiness, the Dalai Lama, Kangyurwa Khensur Rinpoche, Choden Rinpoche, Khen Rinpoche Lama Lhundrup, Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Thay Thich Nhat Nanh and Geshe Chonyi. Since then, my love for Dharma knowledge and passion for understanding reality has grown. Losang Tenkyong which in Tibetan, means spreading or preserving the Dharma is my refuge name. Wonderous Service of the Heart is the name given to me by Plum Village, basing on my aspirations to truly benefit others.
