It is said in The Ten Wheel Sūtra of the Essence of Earth (Kṣitigarbha), “All comfort, happiness and peace in this world come from making offerings to the Rare Sublime Ones (the Triple Gem). Therefore, those who want comfort, happiness and peace should always try to make offerings to the Rare Sublime Ones.” - Lama Zopa Rinpoche; Soquel, CA USA 1999
