This year's Tsetar Shrimp Release will be performed by Anyen Rinpoche and Allison Choying Zangmo by boat, before the weekend opens to the public. Last year, our generous dharma circle donated over $5,000, allowing for the release of 10,000 shrimp! This December, we will sponsor the purchase of shrimp that are caught in the Tampa area as bait. These shrimp would otherwise be used the same day as bait to catch fish, or die in the tank waiting to be sold. We will release them back into Sarasota Bay, part of their native waterway. We will pray for these creatures and dedicate the merit to beings everywhere. We Invite all, far and wide, to participate by making a donation to help us sponsor this meritorious release!
The powerful tradition of Tsetar:
The traditional practice of tsetar saves beings that would otherwise be killed, and releases them back into a safe environment where they can
continue living. Among the many virtuous practices in the Vajryana tradition, this one has exceedingly great benefits and is taught to be the best of all longevity practices. In Tibet, animals sent for slaughter are often “ransomed” by Buddhist masters and practitioners who buy them from the slaughterhouse and set them free. This not only pacifies the fear of imminent death, it also frees these animals from ultimately rebirth in the lower realms, and extends the lives of those participating in the practice.
This practice is traditionally done for the sick or dying, to help purify the karma of their illness through saving the lives of other beings.
