  • The Tulku System in Tibetan Buddhism: Its Reliability, Orthodoxy and Social Impacts
    The Tulku System in Tibetan Buddhism: Its Reliability, Orthodoxy and Social Impacts By Ramin Etesami A thesis submitted to the graduate school in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the International Buddhist College, Thailand March, 20 Abstract The Tulku institution is a unique characteristic of Tibetan Buddhism with a central role in this tradition, to the extent that it is present in almost every aspect of Tibet’s culture and tradition. However, despite this central role and the scope and diversity of the socio-religious aspects of the institution, only a few studies have so far been conducted to shed light on it. On the other hand, an aura of sacredness; distorted pictures projected by the media and film industries;political propaganda and misinformation; and tendencies to follow a pattern of cult behavior; have made the Tulku institution a highly controversial topic for research; and consequently, an objective study of the institution based on a critical approach is difficult. The current research is an attempt to comprehensively examine different dimensions of the Tulku tradition with an emphasis on the issue of its orthodoxy with respect to the core doctrines of Buddhism and the social implications of the practice. In this research, extreme caution has been practiced to firstly, avoid any kind of bias rooted in faith and belief; and secondly, to follow a scientific methodology in reviewing evidence and scriptures related to the research topic. Through a comprehensive study of historical accounts, core Buddhist texts and hagiographic literature, this study has found that while the basic Buddhist doctrines allow the possibility for a Buddhist teacher or an advanced practitioner to “return back to accomplish his tasks, the lack of any historical precedence which can be viewed as a typical example of the practice in early Buddhism makes the issue of its orthodoxy equivocal and relative.

  • The Mirror 31 May-June 1995
    THE MIRROR Newspaper of the International Dzogchen Community May/June 1995 Issue No. 31 H. H. Penor Rinpoche A.S.LA. Current Developments Head of the Nyingma Tradition by Andrea Dell'Angelo and Andrea Sertoli On his first visit to Italy, will give, at the request of Chögyal Namkhai Norbu, The Teaching and Initiation of the Konchok Jidus July 25th- July 31st, 1995 at Merigar, Arcidosso (GR), Italy H. H. Drubwang Pedma Norbu Rinpoche, widely known as H. H. Penor Rinpoche, was chosen head of the Nyingma tradition in January, 1992, by the principal Nyingma masters gathered at Bodh Gaya. Because he was about to visit Tibet, announcement of his appointment was postponed for a year, and made in January, 1993 before an assembly of over 3,000 Nyingma lamas, abbots and disciples. This position is a recognition of his remarkable qualities as an enlightened teacher and scholar, and of his tireless contribution to preserving the Dharma. H. H. Penor Rinpoche was born in 1932, in the twelfth month of the Water Monkey Year, and recognized when two years old as the third Drubwang Pema Norbu. At the age of four, he entered Palyul, one of the six major Nyingma monasteries, each of which has its own unique lineage. He studied with, and received transmissions from revered masters of the time and became the twelfth throne-holder of the Palyul lineage. He left Tibet in 1959 with twelve of his disciples, and resettled in Mysore in south India. In 1963, he founded Nandroling monastery, Chögyal Namkhai Norbu being welcomed in Galenteng in 1993.

  • The Karmapa Controversy
    The Karmapa controversy A compilation of information 1 Foreword This work fills a requirement: to provide all meaningful information for a good understanding about the Karmapa controversy which, since 1992, shakes up the Karma Kagyu lineage. While web surfing, one can notice the huge information unbalance between the two differing sides: on Situ Rinpoche's side, there is plenty of documentation, while that on Shamar Rinpoche's side is sparse. On Situ Rinpoche's side, many websites give out information, with some, dedicated to this task, having almost daily updates. By comparison, Shamar Rinpoche side does not even provide the minimum information sufficient to understand its point of view. Now, complete information easily found is essential for everyone to make up one's opinion. To limit oneself to only one version of the facts does not allow for a full understanding and leads to all extremes, which we have sorely witnessed since 1992. Studying this controversy, one is surprised by the distressing level of disinformation and ignorance surrounding it. Few people know truly the circumstances and the unfolding of all these events which profoundly shook our lineage. Most contented themselves with adopting the view point of their entourage, siding either way, bringing up real quarrels and polemics between disciples of the same masters. It even came up to murders and monasteries attacks ! And yet, without going for any debate or confrontation, simply acquainting oneself with information provided by each side, allows us to stand back, to grasp the ins and outs in a more objective way and finally to reach a valid opinion in this matter.

    2014-15 Shamar Rinpoche's unwavering commitment to preserving the lineage was his clear priority, as 2013/14 evidenced by his response to the criticism he was receiving: “I understood very well that what was good for the Karma Kagyu tradition would not be very good for me as an individual under these circumstances. Yet, I sacrificed myself for the greater good in order to protect the lineage. The reason I chose to sacrifice myself was that I had already by that time taken on the role of leadership, in accord with my position as the Shamarpa. How could I ignore something so important in order to save myself from any hardship? I took this responsibility seriously, as is my duty. I tried to be a bulldozer, in order to build up the strength of the genuine Karma Kagyu tradition.” TRIBUTE TO THE 14TH SHAMARPA MIPHAM CHOKYI LODRO Presented on the one year commemoration ceremony KARMAPA INTERNATIONAL BUDDHIST SOCIETY B 19/20 Qutab Institutional Area, New Delhi -110016 INDIA +91-11-41087859 [email protected] Special Edition www.facebook.com/KIBSociety Editor: Sally J.

    Vision of Samantabhadra - The Dzokchen Anthology of Rindzin Gödem Katarina Sylvia Turpeinen Helsinki, Finland M.A. University of Helsinki (2003) A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Religious Studies University of Virginia May 2015 Acknowledgements When I first came to the University of Virginia as a Ph.D. student in January 2005, I had no idea what journey had just started. During the course of my research, this journey took me to rigorous intellectual study and internal transformation, as well as leading me to explore Tibet and Nepal, and to more than four years of living in Tibetan religious communities in the Indian Himalayas. During my years of dissertation research, I was fortunate to meet a great array of bright, erudite, committed, kind, humble and spiritual minds, who have not only offered their help and inspiration, but also their deeply transformative example. I am particularly grateful to three individuals for their invaluable support in my dissertation project: Professor David Germano for his brilliant and patient guidance in all the stages of my research, Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche for his extraordinary insight and kindness in my contemplative training and Khenpo Nyima Döndrup for his friendship, untiring answers to my questions about Northern Treasures scriptures and generous guidance to Tibetan religious culture. In addition to Khenpo Nyima Döndrup, I am very grateful to have been able to study the texts of The Unimpeded Realization and The Self-Emergent Self-Arisen Primordial Purity with several other learned teachers: Khenpo Chöwang from Gonjang monastery in Sikkim, Khenpo Lha Tsering from the Nyingma Shedra in Sikkim, Khenpo Sönam Tashi from Dorjé Drak monastery in Shimla, Khenpo Chöying from the Khordong monastery in Kham and Lopön Ani Lhamo from the Namdroling monastery in Bylakuppe.

Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje to recognize the 15th Shamar Rinpoche August 26, 2014, Dordogne, France: Following the passing of Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche in Germany on June 11th, representatives of Bodhi Path Buddhist Centers, the Diamond Way Buddhist Foundation and the French Federation of Karma Kagyu Buddhist Centers met in France to discuss ongoing activities within the lineage in the absence of the Shamarpa.

    SEPTEMBER 2012 AT BODHI PATH NATURAL BRIDGE TEACHING SEPTEMBER 21-23, 2012 Shamar Rinpoche’s Annual Teaching Program: The 3rd Karmapa’s Mahamudra Aspiration Prayer Program includes: Daily Q & A, Dharma Movie Night, Dharma Teacher’s Panel Discussion, Sitting Posture Tune-up and Celebration The Mahamudra Aspiration Prayer by the 3rd Karmapa Rangjung Dorje provides profound instructions on how to realize Mahamudra, the ultimate nature of mind. Simple and pithy, it lays out the essential points for training the mind to realize its natural uncontrived peaceful nature, which, in fact, is already present within us. Shamar Rinpoche, a widely recognized Mahamudra master, will give a rare extensive commentary to this prayer, explaining the profound practice and making it accessible to meditators of all levels. Understanding this prayer helps create conditions to realize the profound state of Mahamudra. Rangjung Dorje, the 3rd Karmapa (1284-1339), was both a supreme meditator and a great scholar. Receiving the full transmissions of both the Kagyu and Nyingma schools of Tibetan Buddhism, he reintroduced a high level of intellectual understanding as part of the practice and unified the traditional Kagyu Mahamudra teachings with the Nyingma Maha-Ati or Dzogchen teachings. An important figure in Tibetan Buddhism, his many texts and commentaries are still being used today, with perhaps the most famous one being The Mahamudra Aspiration Prayer. Shamar Rinpoche, the 14th Shamarpa, or Red Hat Lama, is the second-oldest reincarnate lineage of Tibet. Rinpoche was born in 1952, and received the full teachings and transmissions from the 16th Karmapa as well as many important lamas of other lineages.
