YESHE MELONG “Mirror of Wisdom” NEWSLETTER April 1998 News and Advice from Gyatrul Rinpoche A Brief Prayer that Spontaneously Fulfills All Wishes EMAHO!

O Guru Rinpoche, in your glory you embody Buddha, Dharma and Sangha; Lama, Yidam and Khandro; and all the Sugatas, the sole refuge of beings, who are without protection in this dark age. Your compassion is as swift as lightening, Töd Treng Tsal. Maha Guru, wrathful Pedma Heruka, with fervent longing and devotion, we pray to you. Avert enemies, obstructing forces, obstacle-makers, curses and spells. Bring all negative forces—gyalpo, senmo and jungpo demons—under your subjugation. Grant your blessings so that all our wishes be spontaneously fulfilled! Tashi Delek! The old Fire Ox has gone away. He’s wagging his tail at us, therefore we are getting lots of stormy weather from East to West. Hopefully we’ll make it out okay because now the golden Earth Tiger is here. So, I’d like to say to everyone, “Happy New Year!” I am in Hawaii now, everything is fine. My feet are getting better, but I still have a slight problem with my shoulder. Everyday I swim with the fish, and I have lots of friends—mostly around three-years-old—that I play with in the water. -

Dolpo Tulku Sherab Zangpo
DOLPO TULKU SHERAB ZANGPO Dolpo Tulku, also called Tulku Sherab Zangpo, was born into a Lama family in Dho Tarap, Dolpo, in 1982. He became a monk at Kanying Shedrub Ling Monastery, Nepal, at the age of 9 in 1991 and was recognized by Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche to be the reincarnation of the third Dolpo Nyingchung Drubthob shortly thereafter. He was then sent to Namdroling Monastery, India, to receive his monastic education under the guidance of Penor Rinpoche. 1994 the Dolpo People’s Welfare Association sponsored his grand official enthronement ceremony at Shechen Monastery, Kathmandu, in the midst of more than ten thousand natives from Dolpo and adjacent regions. Hence he got the responsibility to guide the three main monasteries, three retreat centers and the people of Dolpo. Whilst studying tantric rites and rituals in the monastery, he assumed the responsibility of a Vajracharya. In 1997, when he was just 15 years old, he entered Nyingma Ngagyur Institute, the prestigious monastic college of Namdroling Monastery where he studied, debated and researched all the sutra and tantra teachings of Lord Buddha for ten years under more than forty scholars and masters including His Holiness Penor Rinpoche. He also studied Tibetan literature, Poetry, Tibetan History and Tibetan Religious History. He secured first division marks in all examinations. Owing to the high scholarship and experience, he was appointed junior teacher and a member of the Rigdzod Editorial Committee whilst an eighth year student. Penor Rinpoche instructed him in the practices of the Namchö Cycle, which combines the practices of Mahamudra and Dzogchen. Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche now teaches the instructions according to his students abilities. -
Guru Padmasambhava
Guru Padmasambhava Guru Padmasambhava From the heart of Buddha Amitabha, light rays radiated into the bud of a lotus on Danakosha lake. Upon its ripening, appeared an amazing child, adorned with the major and minor marks sitting atop a thousand petalled lotus. Glorious Guru Padmasambhava, please protect and guide me until I attain complete enlightenment. Inseparable from the Primordial Buddha Samantabhadra, the all-pervading Lord of the three jewels of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha, and master of the three roots of lama, yidam, and dakini, the glorious Guru Padmasambhava should be definitively understood as being the essence of Buddha Amitabha. In order to propagate and spread the teachings of the Dharma in general, and particularly the secret mantra and Dzogchen teachings, he appears to every being of the three thousand billion world systems in a form to benefit them according to their personal karmic vision. In this way Guru Padmasambhava has countless unimaginable biographies, one biography for each being. Although that is the definitive biography of Guru Padmasambhava, the historical figure Guru Padmasambhava’s life-story as known to the common disciples is as follows. When the time for Guru Rinpoche to liberate the beings of this world approached, on the tenth day of the sixth month of the Monkey year, he appeared miraculously in the blossom of a lotus in the lake called “Ocean of Milk” in South West Odiyana, which is also known as Lake Danakosha located on the Afghanistan-Pakistan frontier. However there are different interpretations regarding his birth. Some Indian historians affirm that he was born to a minister or a King of Odiyana, and some claim that he appeared instantaneously on the summit of Mt. -

Details on content of the course, teacher and organisation (how to reach us etc.) The Treasury of Precious Qualities Vajrayana Studies in 3 Parts Ven. Tolpo Tulku Rinpoche Tibetan – German by Daniela Hartmann Please ask for english Translation Jigme Lingpa (1729-1798) is one of the best known masters of the Nyingma tradition in Tibet. Also known as ‘Khyentse Ozer’ (light beams of wisdom and compassion), he was an excellent teacher and visionary who received the Longchen Nyingthik instruction and practice cycle from Longchenpa, the great master of the 14th century through a series of visions. Thanks to the support of the royal family of Derge, Jigme Lingpa published the Nyingma Gyubum, a detailed compendium of all Nyingma tantras. Another famous text in the Nyingma tradition is his Treasure of precious Qualities (Yonten Rinpoche Dzo). Here all the stages of the Buddhist path, from the Four Noble Truths to the highest insights of dzogchen are explained in unique and systematic detail. The first nine chapters are devoted to the Hinayana and Mahayana paths and were commented on by Kangyur Rinpoche in the book Treasury of Precious Qualities. In this course, Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche will begin directly with explanations based on chapter 10, the Vajrayana chapter. Course Structure and Participation: This course will continue over a period of 3 years. The prerequisite for participation is that the student should practice either ngondro or a sadhana. This year Dolpo Tulku Rinpoche will give three lectures daily for four days. The following year, at the beginning of the course, Rinpoche will ask questions to make sure that the participants have understood the material so far. -
Tibet Insight News, 1-15 February 2020
TIBET INSIGHT NEWS, 1-15 FEBRUARY 2020 1 TAR NEWS New PSB directive mandates ‘zero distance’ between police and people in TAR February 14, 2020 The Central Public Security Bureau (PSB) issued a new directive mandating the Police Headquarters in TAR to launch a new propaganda campaign entitled ‘One million policemen into ten million homes’ and asking it to maintain ‘zero distance’ between the police and the people. Launched on January 14, 2020, the new campaign is scheduled to end by December 2020. The Tibet Entry-Exit Border Inspection Station organized a meeting in this connection and discussed the overall deployment activities to be carried out in TAR. It was decided that grassroot civilian police units would enter into all aspects of a community, into pastoral areas, monasteries, nunneries, campuses, market, construction sites, homes, border areas, and ‘mingle’ closely with the common people. The grassroot civilian police units were asked to grasp the root causes of a ‘problem/risk’ and conduct preventive measures accordingly. Damshung County of Chengguan District, Lhasa started the campaign on February 14, under the leadership of the Tashi, Director of the Damshung Public Security Bureau and Secretary of the local Political and Legal Committee. At a deployment meeting he told local Township police units that to carry out the campaign they should enter into village groups (including virtual ones like WeChat), monasteries, nunneries, campuses and entrepreneurial sites. He added that the Township police units should keep as close contact as possible with the people, ensure their safety and maintain stability in the region. After the deployment meeting, policemen of Damshung County packed rice, dumplings and other necessities and went to their respective jurisdictions to conduct the campaign. -
Yuthog Nyingthig Empowerment and Oral Transmission
YUTHOG NYINGTHIG EMPOWERMENT AND ORAL TRANSMISSION BY VEN. TAKLUNG TSETRUL RINPOCHE Yuthog Nyingthig Empowerment and Initiation remains one of the most sacred and esoteric practice of Buddhist Tantric Traditions capable of rewarding complete enlightenment in one’s life time for the most fortunate and dedicated practitioners. It falls into the sublime category of Nyingmapa’s rZogs-chen or Great Accomplishment Tradition. Yuthog Yonten Gonpo, the Father of Tibetan Medicine who attained rainbow body while on his final departure to the glorious land of Medicine Buddha, transmitted this sacred knowledge to his chosen disciple Sumton-Yeshe-zun. Sumton in turn nurtured and cherished this practice like a jewel from the heart of his own Guru and, very secretly passed the precious knowledge down through the centuries of legendary spiritual Masters and physicians to maintain the continuum of its sacred lineages. It is said that Yuthog, throughout his lifetime, practiced and cherished two jewels from his own heart: Yuthog Nyingthig and Sowa Rigpa( Tibetan Medical System) hand in hand together. Realizing the great need of such a profound empowerment and Initiation in today’s degenerating era, and particularly for the practitioners of Tibetan Medicine, the members of the Central Council of Tibetan Medicine (CCTM) made a fervent and repetitive request to Kyabje Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche, one of the rare Buddhist Spiritual Masters who holds the precious lineage of this sacred Initiation, to bestow the empowerment and oral transmission to our Tibetan doctors for the glory of Sowa Rigpa. Our prayer was answered when Rinpoche, disregarding his age, health and all the travel hardships, on the most auspicious date of 1st to 4th day of celestial star ‘Wo’ month of Tibetan Earth Ox Year( 27th to 30th March, 2009),blessed and satisfied all the fortunate devotees numbering about 400( including many devoted practitioners of Tibetan Medicine in the Himalayan regions of Ladakh, Spiti, Bhutan and Nepal). -
Tulku Thadral Rinpoche
Tulku Thadral Rinpoche Tulku Thadral was born in India in 1970 – the son of Drolma and Dondrub, a yogi from the Sang- ngak Choling Monastery. At the age of four Tulku Thadral was recognized by HH Dudjom Rinpoche as the reincarnation of Lama Thadral Dorje, a student of the Dudjom Lingpa lineage. He received refuge vows from Nyoshul Khenpo Jamyang Rinpoche and Bodhicitta vows from His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche, Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Rinpoche, followed by novice vows and full ordination from Kyabje Trulshik Rinpoche and Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche. Tulku Thadral received the Vajrayana vows as well as the Kama and Terma transmissions from HH Dudjom Rinpoche, HH Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, HH Dodrupchen Rinpoche, Kyabje Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche and Kyabje Khetsun Sangpo Rinpoche. Since childhood Tulku Thadral has lived and studied at the Nyingmapa Wishfulfilling Center for Study and Practice, the Shedra established by HH Dudjom Rinpoche. At a young age he progressed through his studies with astonishing speed. Regarding the Vajrayana, Rinpoche completed his preliminary practices in the Dudjom Tersar cycle following instructions received from Kyabje Thinley Norbu Rinpoche, and in the Longchen Nyingthik under Khetsun Sangpo Rinpoche, his root teacher. He focused his studies and practice in the Dudjom Tersar Three Roots and received teachings on philosophy, meditation and ritual training from Khenpo Thubten, Pema Tsewang Lhundrup, Khenpo Tsewang Rigdzin, Khenpo Gelek Tenzin and Lama Chimed Rinpoche. He balanced his studies with private retreat whenever he had the time. In early 1998, after graduating from his studies of sutra and tantra, Taklung Tsetrul Rinpoche and Khetsun Sangpo Rinpoche enthroned Rinpoche as Khentrul Thadral Rinpoche, “Khentrul” being the title bestowed on one with a Khenpo degree, also recognized as a tulku, and possessing a high level of realization.
