It is the source of Nyingma tradition. The lineage of Kathok is the main lineage among the three Nyingmapa lineages. The Kathok Monastery has had over 800 years of history. There are as many as one thousand and twenty branch monasteries all over the world propagating the Buddha-dharma. The ten-thousand-sangha dharma pills are made only during the grand puja in Kathok Monastery. They were meticulously produced in accordance with the ‘Liberation upon Contact’ teaching, one of the four Vajrayana teachings on "Attaining Accomplishments without practice" found only in Nyingma tradition. Over one hundred Rinpoches and Khenpos, and ten thousand sanghas gathered to practice the sadhanas of Avalokitesvara, Wrathful Guru Rinpoche, Vajrasattva, the Great Eight-Dharma, and Vajrakilaya, round the clock for ten days and ten nights. According to a Vajrayana text, Kathok’s ten-thousand-sangha dharma pills have inconceivably miraculous power. For instance, these pills have the ability to cure illnesses caused by negative karma. But, if you have doubts about the pills, have no respect for the pills or are not remorseful of your non-virtuous actions, then the pills will not be effective. If you are sincere in your practice and have faith in the pills, accumulated negative karma will be cleansed and the door to transcendental wisdom will open. And, when you pass from this world, you will not be reborn in the lower realms. Using the Ten-Thousand-Sangha Dharma Pills (1) Wearing seven dharma pills would help you to avert accidents, mishaps and disasters; obstacles to attaining your wishes will be removed; you will have a long life; you will have wealth if you so wished and you can complete your accumulation of merits. (2) Offer seven dharma pills on your home altar and your family will have harmony, prosperity and good fortune. (3) If you chant or recite a sutra with a dharma pill in your mouth, whatever you wished will be fulfilled. (4) Put a dharma pill into a bottle of water, offer it on the altar and consume a small amount of it regularly. This will cleanse your body and mind of negativities and spiritual pollution, avert and eradicate illnesses, mishaps and disasters and you will enjoy propitious conditions. (5) When performing animal liberation, sprinkled a little water from a bottle containing a dharma pill, on the animals. The animals thus blessed will not be reborn in lower realms. They will become inclined towards the Dharma and will begin to practice it at some stage. Sprinkle some water on a corpse or grave and the deceased will receive blessings immediately and may even be liberated. (6) Placing seven dharma pills inside a Buddha statue will imbue it with miraculous powers and exceptionally effective blessings. It is impossible really to enumerate the miraculous uses and effects of the dharma pills. It is the special ingredients used and the blessings of triple gems that enable the dharma pills to work their wonders. Hence, ordinary persons like us should not doubt or be dismissive of its effectiveness due to our shallow knowledge or lack of understanding if we were to avoid creating negative karma. May those fortunate enough to get hold of the ten-thousand-sangha dharma pills, beginning with themselves, remove greed, hatred and ignorance and make assiduous efforts without any lapses, in the three trainings of discipline, concentration and wisdom. May they also use the dharma pills to connect countless sentient beings everywhere to the Holy Dharma, imbuing them with Buddha-like kindness and hastening them along the path to great bliss.

The Guru Rinpoche liberation upon sight amulets have been exquisitely hand-made using rare medicinal herbs from Tibet as a base and mix with numerous holy items left behind by enlightened beings throughout the centuries. The ingredients of the amulets include the following sacred items, such as: The great terton Dundrul Dorje’s terma items, the relics of the first seven Buddhas of this fortunate eon, Shakyamuni Buddha’s relics and his robes, the relics of the twelve Great Perfection Buddhas, Manjushrimitra, Shri Singha, Vimalamitra etc. as well as Guru Rinpoche’s hair, hat, robe and garment; the holy hair, brain, skulls, bodies, bones, robes and sariras of Abbot Shantaraksita Yeshe Tsogyal, the Tibetan King Trisong Deutsen, Kathok lineage founder Tampa Deshek, Situ Mahapandita and various lineage masters, and the flesh of a seven successive reincarnation of a pure Brahmin. They also contained dharma pills that were blessed in the thousand-sangha puja presided by Situ Chokyi Gyamtso, the “rainbow” dharma pills, Guru Rinpoche and Thang-tong Gyalpo long-life dharma pills. These pills formed part of the base ingredients. The amulets were made in accordance with Guru Rinpoche’s sadhana and gilded with gold powder from the statue of Buddha Sakyamuni in Jokhang’s Temple in Lhasa. Anyone who wears such an amulet will have his/her obstacles removed and his/her wishes fulfilled. One will be protected from the mishaps of the four great disasters and the harm of robbery, guns and weapons, one will have longevity. Things will go according to one wishes and one will perfect the accumulation of merits.
