  • A Report on Rumtek Monastery - Sikkim
    Dated: 24-5-1997 Dear Shri I had sent a brief report to you on the Rumtek situation on 18.12.96. Taking into account recent developments I have carried out a more detailed assessment outlining possible options before us. I am sending herewith this assessment for your kind perusal. I am endorsing copies of this both to the DIB and the Chairman, JIC, with whom I have discussed this matter. Yours sincerely, Sd/- (K. Shreedhar Rao) Shri T.S.R. Subramanian, Cabinet Secretary, Government of India , New Delhi A REPORT ON RUMTEK MONASTERY - SIKKIM The controversy regarding the reincarnation of the seventeenth Gyalwa Karmapa has been persisting ever since 1992. Recently, the arrival of the Karmapa, recognised by the Shamar Rinpoche faction, in Kalimpong (Darjeeling District) has caused considerable apprehension among the members of the Joint Action Committee in Sikkim who have been advocating the cause of the Karmapa reincarnation in Tibet, recognised by the Tai Situ Rinpoche group. There are reports to indicate that the Joint Action Committee is planning to send a delegation to Tibet in an effort to bring the Karmapa incarnate from Tibet to Rumtek. This group is being supported by Lamas not only from the Rumtek Monastery but also reportedly by Lamas from Phudong, Ralang, and even Pemayangtse monastery even though the Pemayangtse monastery does not belong to the Karmapa sect. These developments have made it necessaary to comphrehensively assess the matter in order to develop a suitable strategy to deal with the emerging situation. Tilogaard's website: K. Shreedhar Rao's report on Rumtek www.tilogaard.dk 1 GENESIS OF THE PROBLEM On the demise of the sixteenth Karmapa in 1981, the affairs of the Rumtek monastery were managed by four regents, namely, Tai Situ Rinpoche, Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche, Tsurpu Gyaltsab Rinpoche and Shamar Rinpoche.

Upon arrival meet your accompanying escort and drive (90 km / 3 hours) to Darjeeling. Once the summer capital of India. The name Darjeeling is derived from 'Dorje Ling' (place of the thunderbolt). The area is stunning and quaint with its little villages, tiny waterfalls and even tinier toy train track. The tranquil environs of the surrounding hills offer a perfect setting for the tea estates and monasteries. Sep 21: Darjeeling / The Elgin (B, D) In the early dark hours of the morning, we drive one hour to Tiger Hill to see sunrise over the Himalayas. Wait with patience for an unforgettable experience of catching the black night turning lighter, suffusing with dull-red, then brilliant orange and bright gold as the sun rises over the peaks of the Kanchenjunga Range (27,500 feet). Return hotel for breakfast. Afterwards we ride the Toy Train one way to Ghoom, departing 10:40 am, arriving 11:30 am (subject to operation of the train). It is a treat to arrive at the train station sometime before the departure and watch them prepare the vintage steam engine for the journey. Only about four bogies and a vintage 1st class chair car are attached to this engine which still needs to stop mid way to fill up its tank with water and wait till it heats up enough to make steam.

Mexico City, Mexico, 14–17 October 2014 PERFORMANCE OF MASONRY MONASTERY STRUCTURES IN THE M 6.9 SIKKIM EARTHQUAKE OF 18 SEPTEMBER, 2011: A GENERAL OVERVIEW Sutapa Joti 1, Keya Mitra 2 1 Bengal Engineering and Science University Shibpur, Howrah 711103, West Bengal, India e-mail: [email protected] 2 Bengal Engineering and Science University Shibpur, Howrah 711103, West Bengal, India [email protected] Keywords: Sikkim earthquake, Buddhist monastery, earthquake damage, masonry Abstract. Sikkim, the second smallest state in India, with a population of 540,493 [1], is located between Latitudes 27-28°N Longitudes 88-89°E, in the Himalayan arc, in between the Main Boundary Thrust (MBT) and Main Central Thrust (MCT) in one of the most tectonically active regions of the world. The M 6.9 Sikkim earthquake of 18 September 2011 revealed once again the vulnerabilities of the built environment in general in the highly vulnerable Himalayan region due to various reasons ranging from poor choice of location, inadequate detailing, non compliance with codes and use of vulnerable construction systems and typologies. Of particular concern is the damage to cultural heritage of the region. Many of the religious buildings, primarily Buddhist monasteries suffered varying degrees of damage from slight to partial collapse. This paper pre- sents an overview of the general performance of some Buddhist monasteries in Sikkim in the Sep- tember 18, 2011 earthquake and points to the need for urgent intervention for removal of deficiencies. Sutapa Joti, Keya Mitra 1 INTRODUCTION India is located in one of the most earthquake prone regions of the world.
