Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition
The FPMT is an organization devoted to preserving and spreading Mahayana Buddhism worldwide by creating opportunities to listen, reflect, meditate, practice and actualize the unmistaken teachings of the Buddha and based on that experience spreading the Dharma to sentient beings. We provide integrated education through which people’s minds and hearts can be transformed into their highest potential for the benefit of others, inspired by an attitude of universal responsibility and service. We are committed to creating harmonious environments and helping all beings develop their full potential of infinite wisdom and compassion. Our organization is based on the Buddhist tradition of Lama Tsongkhapa of Tibet as taught to us by our founders Lama Thubten Yeshe and Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche.

Painting of the new gateway, Amitabha Buddhist Centre, Singapore. Photo courtesy of ABC.
Ven. Tenzin Tsultrim of Amitabha Buddhist Centre (ABC), Singapore. shares news of the completion of their newly renovated gateway:
The Amitabha Buddha statue above ABC building’s gateway now shines with renewed radiance after over two months of repairs and repainting. The statue now sits with a fresh coat of paint on a newly constructed lotus, flanked by the two dragons that have also been carefully restored with gold paint.

The structures had been damaged by heavy rainfall over the year-end monsoon season and on the brink of collapse! The statue was carefully removed for repairs to be done. Two monks from Kopan Monastery, Ven. Jampa (Gen Tseme) and Ven. Sherab, together with ABC member Jeremy Chu, completed repainting the entire gateway with all its detailed sculptures and mouldings, including the mantras. The work was completed on April 25 and Amitabha Buddha once again sits serene over the gateway.
Beautiful detail of the new gateway at ABC.
ABC director, Tan Hup Cheng, is very pleased with the finished result: “It will serve as a source of inspiration and blessing for people passing by our center. We can rest assured our Guru Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche would have been very happy at the completion of this major restoration of the Amitabha Buddha gateway.”
It was Rinpoche who had advised having the Amitabha Buddha seated above the building’s entrance along with specific accompanying details and mantras. Rinpoche had always emphasized how important it was for powerful mantras to be placed where they could be of greatest benefit to sentient beings.
The gateway is decorated with four such mantras that have the power to purify eons of negative karma and protect one from falling into the lower realms, just even by seeing them:
1) The Six Syllables of Clairvoyance Mantra
A AH SHA SA MA HA
This mantra decorates the skirting of the parapet that holds Amitabha Buddha and the dragons.
2) The Six-Syllable Mantra of Chenrezig
OM MANI PADME HUM
3) The Stainless Lotus Pinnacle Mantra
OM PADMO USHNISHA VIMALE HUM PHAT
Mantras #2 and #3 are painted above the snow lions and Garuda.
NAMO RATNA TRAYAYA OM KAMKANI KAMKANI ROCHANI ROCHANI TROTANI TROTANI TRASANI TRASANI PRATIHANA PRATIHANA SARVA KARMA PARAM PARA NI ME SARVA SATTVA NANCHA SVAHA
This mantra appears on a red background just above the door entrance.

There are inconceivable benefits to sentient beings in having this gateway that was designed according to Rinpoche’s advice.
Please join us in rejoicing on the completion of this extremely auspicious gateway at ABC in Singapore!
