Lessons Induced From Nectar

Dharma Discourse by Amang Nopu Pamu in Nectar Assembly

Amang Nopu Pamu is an extraordinary Dharma King and Holy Mother, revered for her unparalleled realization. Her spiritual achievements stand as truly exceptional, placing her at the forefront among female yidams at the highest level.

Remarkably, at the tender age of eight, she demonstrated remarkable intellectual prowess by composing a profound commentary on logical reasoning—a feat unparalleled by anyone else in the world. Her intellectual brilliance continued to shine, as she accomplished the mastery of the entire Tripitaka by the age of 20.

In addition to her scholarly achievements, Amang Nopu Pamu authored five insightful commentaries, including notable works such as “The Prajna of Ultimate Reality” and “Entering the Door of the Dharma,” alongside other contributions to Buddhist literature.

In the rich tapestry of Buddhist history, finding a figure as exemplary as Amang Nopu Pamu is a rare occurrence. Her greatness is acknowledged and praised not only by mortal beings but also by all Bodhisattvas and Arhats in the sacred realm. Amang Nopu Pamu stands as the most exalted, earning the admiration and reverence of those who recognize the profound depth of her spiritual attainment.

On September 8th, 1997, a significant gathering unfolded as several Rinpohes actively engaged in different segments of a Nectar Sharma Assembly presided over by Amang Nopu Pamu. The following is the discourse delivered by Pamu during this Sacred Assembly.

In the Nectar Assembly Pamu Sat at the Dharma King Throne Many Rinpoches sitting around


The live videotape of the Buddhas bestowing nectar and the scenes of myself and Buddhist disciples cannot be shown to those who do not understand the Buddha Dharma. This is because outsiders would not recognize or understand the wonderful states concerned with unworldly Dharma. Of course, those practitioners of Buddhism who are Great Rinpoches and those who have deep roots of kindness’ may view the videotape.


You have requested numerous times that proof of the truth of the Buddha Dharma be provided. You can use real photographs of my practicing the nectar Dharma. You can also use the attestations of the Great Rinpoches that they personally participated in the Dharma Assembly and that they personally saw the Buddhas bestow nectar. However, one must use only group scenes. I am not qualified to claim personal merit or engage in self acclamation. As Long as living beings are benefited, that is enough.
The Buddhas have bestowed nectar in response to the ripening of conditions of good fortune of those of you who were able to partake of the nectar. I think that the Buddhas bestowing of nectar must have been due to a Great Virtuous One among our disciples here who was helping me practice the Dharma. I am just a humble person. How could I have such great abilities?


I and all of you practitioners of Buddhism seated here today, including Great Bodhisattvas, should constantly maintain a heart of humility. You must remember what I say. I will never accept any offerings from anyone. This is because we are practitioners of Buddhism who maintain a heart of humility. We have come to this world to benefit living beings, not to covet and accept the money and property of others.


One of my disciples said that those false Rinpoches will hate me. I said that this is exactly the law or principle of cause and effect. This is because whoever is a false Rinpoche does not understand the Buddha Dharma. Such people are ordinary beings with ignorance, defilements, anger, and hatred.
They are not able to obtain the true nectar of the Buddhas, are not able to experience true empowerment, and do not possess the qualifications to receive Supreme Division initiations. They must accept many disciples and rely upon the offerings of such disciples.


I do not accept many disciples. I only teach several dozen people of noble character. Anyone else who wants to learn the Buddha Dharma from me can only learn from the books I have written. Through learning from the books I have written, one can in the same manner obtain great fortune and end the cycle of birth and death. I do not have time to receive more disciples. Unlike those false Rinpoches, I do not accept any offerings.


If they did not hate me, whom would they hate? In previous times, were Sakyamuni Buddha, Master Padmasambhava, and Master Marpa not despised by false Rinpoches and followers of erroneous ways? If any of you who are my disciples meet up with evil people who defame me, you must not become angry or hateful. You must not use your supernormal powers to kill them. On the contrary, you must have great compassion for them and must be concerned for them. You must vow to bring them good fortune. You must vow to enable them to receive the correct Dharma as soon as possible. You must not give rise to even the slightest harmful thought, since we are living in this world to benefit and save living beings.


There is another point I would like to especially remind those Rinpoches and Dharma Teachers here today to convey to all other practitioners of Buddhism. Under no circumstances should one, upon seeing a Rinpoche, think of beseeching him or her to practice the Dharma to have true nectar bestowed. It could be said that this is impossible. Even those Rinpoches who are at the level of Dharma King may not have attained such realization. Practicing such Dharma is only for true Holy Ones who are Great Dharma Kings.


As for myself, if the conditions for all of you in attendance here today to receive the blessing of nectar were not mature, and if there was not a Holy Dharma King among you practicing the Dharma whom I do not have the ability to see, then I would not have been able to cause you to taste true nectar bestowed by the Buddhas! Thus, you disciples of mine who are Rinpoches and Great Virtuous Ones should tell your students not to make unrealistic demands upon other Rinpoches. As long as they are truly Great Virtuous Ones who actually propagate the correct Dharma of the Tathagata and are not false Rinpoches, we should be respectful toward them.

How to Obtain Supernormal Power

From Dharma That Every Buddhist Must Follow

By Ahmong Nuobu Pamu

SUPERNORMAL DHARMA POWERS ARE skills that will inevitably appear during the course of a Buddhist’s cultivation and his striving for enlightenment. These powers are also a type of realization that the cultivator must naturally possess.
This is especially true with respect to practitioners of Vajrayana Bud-dhism. When the Vajra Acarya Master manifests the Dharma at the Buddhist altar area, these skills will provide empowerment that is an indispensable part of the Buddhist altar area state. Those who are Rinpoches, Dharma Teachers, and Great Virtuous Ones desire and require such skills.
Even ordinary cultivators who have just begun to follow Buddhism want to possess a few supernormal Dharma powers! Because of such ignorant thinking, these practitioners will not only cultivate themselves for their entire lives without attaining any supernormal powers, they will also never have the opportunity to even meet up with a teacher of great virtue who does possess supernormal Dharma powers! What is the reason for this result?


Can it be said that desiring supernormal Dharma powers is blameworthy and produces hindrances?
Desiring supernormal powers can be a proper desire for the Dharma. The desire for supernormal powers can be divided into two types: blameworthy and non-blameworthy. It is blameworthy if one desires supernormal Dharma powers primarily for one’s own use. This would include desiring to appear impressive and awe-inspiring by showing off one’s Dharma powers. It would also include using one’s miraculous powers to subdue people, reap fame and Bain, cheat people out of money, hoodwink people into sexual misconduct, further one’s worldly selfish and evil intentions, and do all kinds of bad things.

These people do not know that the Dharma Protectors in space are inspecting and can see their evil minds. The Dharma Protectors will then immediately exercise their samadhi obstructive powers. These Dharma Protectors will seal up the chakras in the bodies of these ill-intentioned people. Their chakras will be confined to this earthly realm. As a result, for their entire lives, these people will only be able to manifest the state of an ordinary person. It will be impossible for them to obtain supernormal powers. This is because if these evil people were ever to obtain supernormal Dharma powers, they would immediately become sorcerers. That would be horrible. Wouldn’t the three spheres of the universe thereby fall into great chaos?


The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the various Dharma realms look back into beginningless time and look forward into the eternal future. They know all living beings in the three spheres of existence like the palms of their own hands. They specifically designate certain conditions under which they will bestow supernormal Dharma powers. Additionally, they dispatch Dharma Protectors, who keep watch on all practitioners, to manage the miraculous powers of living beings. Even if a Great Virtuous One is momentarily deceived by a person with such evil intent and consequently transmits the Buddha Dharma to him, as long as this person’s evil intentions still remain, it will be impossible for him to obtain supernormal Dharma powers no matter how diligently he may practice. This is because the Dharma Protectors inspecting from above do not dare to violate the precepts! They see that evil person’s preposterous ideas and immediately cease his miraculous Dharma powers. They block his chakras to prevent his chakras from developing. This is the responsibility of these Dharma Protectors.

There is a second type of person. Their desire to obtain supernormal Dharma powers is not blameworthy. The main reason why this type of person desires miraculous powers is to enlighten themselves and others. The practice of this type of person is based upon the four limitless states of mind. They constantly carry out the six paramitas. They have taken the great bodhicitta vows. They cultivate themselves in order to liberate all living beings. They want to obtain miraculous Dharma powers in order to liberate living beings from the suffering connected with samsara. They desire to obtain supernormal powers in order to benefit all living beings. They themselves clearly believe in the law of cause and effect. They even often fear that obtaining supernormal powers will bring about karmic hindrances and will cause them to go against the law of cause and effect. Thus, they are frightened of miraculous powers and maintain a heart of humility. They are Great Bodhisattvas, yet they always consider themselves to be ordinary living beings.


The practice of this type of person is entirely in accordance with Buddhism. Since their practice is in accordance with what I am now lecturing on – Dharma That Every Buddhist Must Follow – the Dharma Protectors inspecting from above will provide them with the most wonderful assistance. These deities will untie the knots in the energy channels of these practitioners and will cause the supernormal Dharma powers of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to suddenly turn into light and enter their chakras. At that time, the mandala in each practitioner’s body will respond well and will accept these powers. As a result, miraculous powers will naturally appear and Dharma powers will open up!
Now then, how does one obtain supernormal Dharma powers after all? Those who are smart might already know the answer. However, perhaps those ignorant people who fantasize about learning miraculous Dharma powers do not yet understand. Hence, I, Pamu, will now clearly tell all of you! How should we obtain supernormal Dharma powers?


There are methods to obtain miraculous Dharma powers. There are mantras, mudras, and visualization techniques. When one’s three karmas unite into one body and correspond with the teachings, supernormal Dharma powers will come into being. One can then exhibit power and light. The uniting of one’s three karmas into one body and their correspondence with the teachings will be manifested in the state of realization and state of virtue one has attained through practice of the Buddha Dharma. When one’s state of realization and state of virtue have reached the level where it is appropriate to obtain supernormal Dharma powers, then as soon as one practices according to the Dharma, supernormal Dharma powers will appear. If one’s state of realization and state of virtue have not yet reached the level where it is appropriate to obtain supernormal Dharma powers, then even if one recites mantras until one’s lips crack, and even if one practices mudras until one’s Wrists fall off, one will still not obtain the slightest Dharma power.
The ordinary practitioner of exoteric Buddhism knows that without moral discipline, one cannot develop concentration. Without concentration, One cannot attain wisdom. One also cannot attain supernormal powers. Without concentration, one cannot master the Dharma.

I am telling this to all of you here today in the hope that you will pass these instructions on to all of those people who fantasize about having limitless Dharma powers and great supernormal powers. If one does not learn the Tripitaka well and does not live according to Buddhism, or if one does not deeply study and truly practice the teachings contained in the books I have written, such as The Prajna of Ultimate Reality, Entering the Door of the Dharma, Dharma That Every Buddhist Must Follow, Brief Commentary on the Precepts and Discipline Treatise, etc., then one will not be able to obtain supernormal Dharma powers! This is because the great door leading to supernormal Dharma powers is opened by living according to the teachings of Buddhism and by possessing a high state of realization and a high state of virtue. There are no other means by which one can obtain supernormal Dharma powers!


Supernormal Dharma powers are arranged by the Buddhas and are managed by the Dharma Protectors who patrol and inspect in the sky. Since the beginning of Buddhist history, not one Dharma Protector has bestowed supernormal Dharma powers upon any cultivator who does not live in accordance with the teachings of Buddhism and who does not have a high state of realization and a high state of virtue. Since the beginning of Buddhist history, not one Dharma Protector has opened up the energy channel knots of any cultivator who does not live in accordance with the teachings of Buddhism and who does not have a high state of realization and a high state of virtue.
