Prayers for the dead of the Chinese earthquake

 As the appalling death toll mounts in China,   in Dharamshala, Tibet, the Department of Religion and Culture  has organised a special prayer session for the victims of the earthquake .  Prayers were led by monks of the  Namgyal Monastery  and "dedicated for the good rebirth of all those Chinese who have lost their lives in the recent natural calamity,”.   The Dalai Lama himself (interesting review here of Alexander Norman's biography) led prayers also last week from his exile.
The Tibetan Book of the Dead (or Great Revelation)  says:   "Be not frightened; tell no lies; and fear not the Lord of Death.... there are no such things existing outside oneself as Lord of Death, or god, or demon. Act so as to recognize this."

Praying - How to feel like you're helping whilst doing nothing.

It may seem like "nothing" to folks like you but it gets results from heaven for folks like me...
