  • His Eminence Chöje Ayang Rinpoche – Background, Lineage and Previous Lives
    His Eminence Chöje Ayang Rinpoche – Background, Lineage and Previous Lives His Eminence Chöje Ayang Rinpoche was born into a nomadic family in Eastern Tibet (Kham). At his birth special signs appeared. His mother dreamed of a Buddha- like being who emanated a golden vajra that merged into the crown of her head. During another dream a bright light appeared, like a shooting star from the west. It dissolved into her body, filling the whole earth and sky with red light. The young boy was recognised by a delegation of high lamas, including His Holiness The 16th Gyalwang Karmapa, Ayang Drubchen Tenpai Nyinpa, Nelong Drubchen, Traleg Kyagbon, and the tutor of His Holiness Drikung Kyobgon Chabra Rinpoche, as the mind (wisdom) emanation of Terton Rigzin Chögyal Dorje and the seventh incarnation of the founder of the Ayang Monastery in Eastern Tibet (Kham), which was built around 1580 C.E. as a branch of the main Drikung monastery. He took his monk's vows and received his early training at Drikung Thil Changchub Ling, the main Drikung Kagyu monastery in central Tibet. From 1951 to 1955 he studied at Drikung Nyima Changra Philosophical College in central Tibet. From Khenpo Tsense Sangpo he received all the Nyingthig initiations and teachings as well as his first Phowa teaching according to the Nyingma tradition. From the great Drikung lama Nyizong Tripa he received all the initiations of Rinchen Ter Dzod and Kagyu Nag Dzod. From his own monastery, Ayang Thupten Rinpoche, who was also the tutor of the head of the Drikung lineage, bestowed on him teachings of the Six Yogas of Naropa and Mahamudra.

  • SPREAD of BUDDHISM INTO TIBET Compilation from Various Sources
    THE SPREAD OF BUDDHISM INTO TIBET Compilation from Various Sources Ven. Kelsang Wangmo ABHISAMAYALAMKARA - YEAR TWO Class One - 01 APRIL 2008 INSTITUTE FOR BUDDHIST DIALECTICAL STUDIES McLeod Ganj, Dharamsala, INDIA 1 SPREAD OF BUDDHISM INTO TIBET {/ë+-} The land of Tibet is called Phö [bod] in the Tibetan language; a name that some texts say derives from the pre-Buddhist religion of Bön. The name Tibet probably derived from the Mongolian word Thubet. As recounted in traditional Tibetan sources, in the distant past, the land of Tibet arose above the waters. This aspect of the origin story of Tibet corresponds to current scientific information on the area’s geographical history. In the distant past, much of what is now the Tibetan plateau was in fact under water. Approximately 40 million years ago the Indian land mass collided with Asia and began to slide underneath the Asian land mass, eventually lifting up land that had been under sea. One result was the formation of the Himalaya, the world’s highest mountain ranges, along with the huge high-altitude plateau that came to be known as Tibet. Tradition has it that Tibet is the land of Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of compassion, and the Tibetan people are his descendents. They trace their ancestry to the copulation of an ape, an emanation of Avalokiteshvara, and an ogress, an emanation of Tara, the Buddha of enlightened activity. Their progeny gave birth to the Tibetan people in the Yarlung valley, which is located about 100 kilometers southeast from Lhasa. Tibet’s oldest spiritual tradition is Bön, which is a system of shamanistic and animistic practices.

  • To the Chairman, Members, and Head of the Drikung Kagyu Centers Across the World
    To the Chairman, members, and head of the Drikung Kagyu centers across the world, The Vinaya Vastu Sutra says, "Bhagawan Buddha pledged to have summer retreat in the Jetavana Grove of Anathapindaka of Shravasti." Thus, among the Lord Buddha' s several abodes, he mainly retreated at Jetavana Grove for twenty long summers. At eastern Mrigdharni' s Grove located near by Jetavana Grove, he retreated for five summers; in total he spent twenty-five long years in summer retreat there. The two supreme disciples of the Buddha, sariputra and Maudgalyoyanaputra, The Five Ascetics, the Sixteen Sthaviras and Mahaka§yapa, those known as eighty closest disciples also spent many years along with the Buddha there. Many arhats passed into parinirvana there as the ruined stupas of their relics stored are still to be seen at the date. At this holy site, for last few years, His Holiness the Drikung Kyabgon Rinpoche,has been working hard on related measurements for organizing a Buddhist cultural gathering and finally the same has been scheduled in November 2015. The event is witnessing mainly by people from Himalaya region this occasion. The main purpose of this mission is to bring primary prosperity of peace, happiness & brotherhood symphony among the human community joining inter-religious faiths on one platform. During the event, every morning session is scheduled for dharma teaching, sutra reading, and prayer recitation. While in the evening, various traditional culture programs will be presented. The formal "Great Shravasti Buddhist Cultural Assembly 2015" is being held from November 3rd to 7th for five days. Accommodation & meal will be arranged for the audiences.
