Corgi Benji had crossed the rainbow bridge

This is benji memorial page:
Benji **( - )**-**Memorial Website

Oh Buddhas & Bodhisattvas of the ten directions and the three times,
Please protect and guide BENJI on her journey.
May she be free from fear and clinging to this life.
May she have a favourite rebirth.”

Benji had crossed the rainbow bridge on 9th December 2008. He passed away suddently and peacefully on ripe old age of 14 years old . He had no special illness, I board him at Paw4 clubs in choa chu kang when i went Bangkok for 5 days. My husband bought him back on 9th dec 5pm and when he back home by 10 plus, he had vomited and in his last breadth. When I am back by 12am, he is gone. I am totally sad and heartache. Full of regret, guilt and loss, but I had to be strong as a tibetan buddhist, I had to be strong to guide him to the rainbow bride.
Before I go for oversea, he is stll youthful and running around happily. His vet Dr Lee from animal clinic suspect he got a heart attact but no one know the true reason of his departure in this life. Perphap he do not want anyone to see him aging and and suffering.Perhap he think I am no more around cause he can't find me and he collapased. He is a dog that loves too much, always pure innocent and child like.
I love Benji forever and deeply
Thankyou Benji for giving me unconditional love
and teach me view this world beautiful and wonderful.
I will like to learn from Benji,
he is just like an angle to come to my life to let me learn how to love.
Now he is united with the all Buddhas & Bodhisattvas, Dakini and protectors in the rainbow bridge.
When my time to pass this life, Benji will bring flowers to greed me at the rainbow brige.Thanks Benji and love you forever and may we meet again.

Benji is cremeted yesterday 17th dec 2008 at 10pm at Mt Pleasant animal hospital. We had two very compassionate lamas from Khyenkong Tharjay Buddhist Charitable Society. ( a society by root guru 2nd Beru Khyentse Rinpoche ) The lamas chanted about 1 and half hours for Benji throughout his cremation process. We left for lunch after that and went back to collect his urn at 2 pm. I will like to thank everyone in Mt Pleasent for giving Benji a full respect and successful cremetion ceremony. Especially I will thank Mr Osman who take charge of cremetion service in Mt pleasant. He is caring and empathetic and totally respect the dead animal made me feel so much peace and warm in my heart. I will never forget Mr Osman, his empathetic and dedicated services and let me feel peace and turn my sorrow into peace. He guide me through the whole process from prayer ceremony till pick up the bones and ashes into the urn. He even send us off when we are leaving.

I also thank Lama sonja and his fellow lamas who gives Benji a wonderful aupicious cermony. When we collect the urn, we wnt back to the center and lama again blessed benji urn and put rice, dharma pills (lamas had gone through many month retreat and chanting to make this pill )and holy water and blessed it wsith holy object. I collected some benji leftover bones and give to lama to make into a stupa or tsa-tsas. I t is believe that there is 108 buddha in a tsa-tsas. The lama will bring the tsa-tsas back to my house on benji's 21 days for chanting. On his 49 days, lama will do prayer for benji in indian Scared Bohagaya ( BUDDHA enlightment place in indain) There is a biggest buddhist event every year in Bohagaya. Sonja lama is attending the puja with many high rinpoche and after he will do Benji's dead 49 days chanting for him and dedicate merits for him. We will contribue under Benji name and a prayer flag will be hang under benji's name in Bohagaya.
Benji is really fortunate and so aupicious ceremony for him. Lama Sonja said even a human being may not lead a quality life like Benji. I am always give him the best and I want to give him the best on his final journey to rainbow brige. Throughout the cremetion journey, I had never cried because I felt peace from the lamas chanting and I knew he had a very successful and aupicious send off.
We bring the urn back and when we get our of the care, there is auspicious dharma rain that sprinkle few drop on us and Benji's urn. When we reached home, there is no rain and the hot sun come out. It seems that the heaven had sprinkle beautiful dew drop for Benji.

During lunch, we went to donate benji foods to the SPCA and donate under SPCA bulletin for his obituary page. I also thank the compassionate staff there who heard that my dog had gone to the rainbow bridge. I also thank Dr Lee from animal clinic and his fellow vets that had attend loving to Benji during his life here.
I will like to thank Guru, Buddha,Bodhisattvas , dharma protector, angles and spitiual guide and everyone that share my sorrow and dedicate prayer to Benji for his favourite rebirth. I will also thank all sentiment that had loved Benji ( Benji had always bring so much happiness to everyone espicall young children and old people, whenever people saw him such a cute and handsome dog, they always had a smile on time. He is always pure and with innocent child-liked smile that create a loving energy whever he goes.) I will thank Especially Kym and my dog Happi that had go through the whole process with me, give me encouragement and warm.
I always tell myself how fortune that I had a dog like Benji.

I am very sad but I cannot help it but let him go.
I know he will be happy where he is now in the rainbow brige, running around happily and no more obstruct by the body.
Benji , my mommy forever love you and will never forget you, not only this life and forever when my soul will exist in this universal.
Deeply missed by Mommy, daddy , Happi , Fuji and others pet at home.

Thankyou everyone who is reading . My advice love your loved one the best and treat and treasure everytimes you are together . For life is full of impermanences, love and enjoy life the fullest and you will have no regret.Wish everyone happy and loved always.

My prayers and sympathy on losing your beloved, Benji.

It sounds like a beautiful ceremony that was given to Benji. One day, the two of you will meet again over the Rainbow Bridge.

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss of Benji. I can tell that Benji was loved very much for 14 years and was very lucky to have your care and attention just as you were fortunate to have the pleasure of his companionship and loyalty during his long and happy lifetime. I'm sure he will have a fortunate rebirth and will undoubtedly be at the bridge to meet you carrying the most lovely bouquet of blossoms.

I hope that you continue to post here, you sound like you were a great dog owner. You should get another Corgi as well! They really are the greatest dogs around.

Hi DarkSephiroth,
thankyou and I have very great passion and love for corgi and I still log on to see other corgi's owner posting especially look at the sweet pictures of those lovely corgis bring me joys. I am looking to get another corgi to carry on my love for this breed. But it is not a replacement for Benji as he is totally unique to me and always live in my heart. I will never forget him but now I am slowly back to life. Everyday I will think of the memories and loves we shared together all this years, it kept me going on. I have gone through the most difficult in my life as Benji is my deepest love. I am very glad to have Benji as he filled my life with so much love and joys . Thankyou

That's great, I really do understand how it would be to lose Benji. There will never be a replacement for Benji, but a new dog may bring a different spark of happiness into your life.

I hope to see you around in the near-future!

Edit: I don't know why, but Benji's story touched me the most out of any I've ever read. I can't put into words the emotions I feel. I just watched the youtube video again, I can feel the love for Benji.
