Nalandabodhi Nederland, Tweejarig Pad Van Beoefening, Kort Overzicht1 Februari 2013
Nalandabodhi Nederland, Tweejarig pad van beoefening, kort overzicht1 Februari 2013 Nalandabodhi is een organisatie die onder leiding staat van de leraar Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche. Zie voor meer informatie over deze organisatie www.nalandabodhi.org. Zie voor meer informatie over Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche zijn website: http://www.dpr.info. Binnen de organisatie van Nalandabodhi is het mogelijk een driejarig pad van studie, een tweejarig pad van beoefening en een éénjarig pad van ‘mindful activity’ (toepassing in het dagelijks leven) te lopen . Deze drie paden zijn vrij toegankelijk voor iedereen die eraan mee wil doen en meedoen verplicht tot niets. Velen van buiten de Nalandabodhi sangha hebben aan deze paden meegedaan voor het ontwikkelen van meer inzicht in de beoefeningen en de theorie van het boeddhisme. Het driejarig pad van studie, het tweejarig pad van beoefening en het éénjarig pad van mindful activity zijn wel verplicht voor die mensen die zich (later) willen verbinden aan de traditie van Nalandabodhi en op dat pad verder willen gaan. De beide paden zijn in die context te beschouwen als oriëntaties op de boeddhistische visie en meditatie van Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche, zodat mensen bewust hun keuzes kunnen maken of ze daar deel van willen (gaan) uitmaken. Tweejarig pad van beoefening Het tweejarig pad van beoefening bestaat uit vier onderdelen, namelijk de beoefening van shamatha (I), de beoefening van vipashyana (II), de beoefening van de geest-trainingen (III) en overige beoefeningen (IV). Alle beoefeningen vragen training (uren) om die je enigszins eigen te maken. Als er staat: 2 of 9 maanden wordt bedoeld: 2 maanden of 9 maanden lang één uur per dag beoefenen.

SUPPLICATION to the TAKPO KAGYÜ Great Vajradhara, Tilo
SUPPLICATION TO THE TAKPO KAGYÜ Great Vajradhara, Tilo, Nāro, Marpa, Mila, Lord of Dharma Gampopa, Knower of the Three Times, omniscient Karmapa, Holders of the four great and eight lesser lineages—Drikung, Tag-lung, Tsalpa, these three, glorious Drukpa and so on— Masters of the profound path of mahāmudrā, Incomparable protectors of beings, the Takpo Kagyü, I supplicate you, the Kagyü gurus. I hold your lineage; grant your blessings so that I will follow your example. Revulsion is the foot of meditation, as is taught. To this meditator who is not attached to food and wealth, Who cuts the ties to this life, Grant your blessings so that I have no desire for honor and gain. Devotion is the head of meditation, as is taught. The guru opens the gate to the treasury of oral instructions. To this meditator who continually supplicates him, Grant your blessings so that genuine devotion is born in me. Awareness is the body of meditation, as is taught. Whatever arises is fresh—the essence of realization. To this meditator who rests simply without altering it Grant your blessings so that my meditation is free from conception. The essence of thoughts is dharmakāya, as is taught. Nothing whatever but everything arises from it. To this meditator who arises in unceasing play Grant your blessings so that I realize the inseparability of samsāra and nirvāna. Through all my births may I not be separated from the perfect guru And so enjoy the splendor of dharma. Perfecting the virtues of the paths and bhūmis, May I speedily attain the state of Vajradhara.

Univerzita Pardubice Fakulta Filozofická Diplomová
UNIVERZITA PARDUBICE FAKULTA FILOZOFICKÁ DIPLOMOVÁ PRÁCE 2008 Bc. Olga KOUSALOVÁ Univerzita Pardubice Fakulta filozofická Nedávný rozkol v tibetské buddhistické škole Karma-kagjü Bc. Olga Kousalová Diplomová práce 2008 SOUHRN Po úmrtí šestnáctého karmapy Rangdžung Rigpä Dordžeho (†1981), představeného jedné ze škol tibetského buddhismu, Karma-kagjü, začali vybraní regentové vyhledávat jeho sedmnáctou inkarnaci. Došlo mezi nimi ke sporům, které vedly k rozpoznání a intronizaci dvou sedmnáctých karmapů. Za cíl práce si kladu popsat celou situaci a osvětlit příčiny možného vzniku a trvání rozkolu. V první kapitole nastiňuji charakteristické znaky tibetského buddhismu a jeho vývoj – s přihlédnutím ke škole Kagjü. Druhá kapitola pojednává o instituci karmapy a tulkuů. Ve třetí kapitole popisuji historické pozadí sporu a uvádím okolnosti vyhledání a rozpoznání obou sedmnáctých karmapů. Ve čtvrté kapitole dělím spor na náboženskou rovinou, kde se zabývám tím, kdo má kompetence karmapu vyhledávat a jak jednotlivé strany obhajují tradičními způsoby autenticitu svého kandidáta; a politickou rovinu, kde rozebírám vlivy, metody a zájmy dalších stran (čtrnáctého dalajlamy, Čínské lidové republiky a západní společnosti), které do kontroverze zasáhly. Na závěr se snažím veškeré poznatky zhodnotit a propojit, a předkládám několik hypotéz o možných příčinách vzniku kontroverze, z nichž jednu podrobněji rozebírám. KLÍČOVÁ SLOVA Tibet; buddhismus; Kagjü; karmapa; 17; rozkol; dalajlama; Čína ABSTRACT Following the death of the 16th Karmapa Rangjung Rigpe Dorje who was the head of Karma Kagyu, i.e. one of the tibetian schools of buddhism, chosen regents commenced the search for his 17th incarnation. As they came to disagree on whom to choose, two different 17th Karmapas were recognized and enthronized. The primary motive and goal of my dissertation is to describe the entire situation and shed some light on the possible causes which might have led to creation and continuation of the rupture.

Mujeres Artistas Surrealismo
IPG SPL JULY_ OCT Mujeres artistas Flavia Frigeri Summary * La mujer ha sido durante mucho tiempo tratada por los artistas como objeto de representación, pero su contribución como creadora de arte es poco reconocida. * Aunque las mujeres artistas ya no están obligadas a trabajar en el anonimato ni a aceptar seudónimos masculinos, hace relativamente poco, en 1989, las Guerrilla Girls salieron a las calles de Nueva York para preguntarse si las mujeres tienen que estar desnudas para entrar en el Metropolitan Museum. * En este libro, la autora explora la vida y la obra de más de cincuenta de las más destacadas artistas femeninas de todos los ámbitos desde el siglo xv hasta la actualidad, entre ellas, Artemisia Gentileschi, Georgia O'Keeffe y Louise Bourgeois. "Un excelente estudio dedicado a artistas internacionales decisivas. Estas esenciales figuras femeninas deberían formar parte de nuestra historia del arte, y este libro es parte de esa importante revisión".

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.

Getting to Know the Buddha by the DZOGCHEN PONLOP RINPOCHE
Getting to Know The Buddha BY THE DZOGCHEN PONLOP RINPOCHE How should we understand all the myths and stories about the Buddha's life? It is said that whoever encountered Buddha, whether a king, a queen or a beggar in the street, felt comfortable with him. Everyone, no matter what their circumstances, felt that he was relating directly, fully and properly with them. Everyone who saw Buddha felt the same peacefulness when they were near this enlightened being. The Buddha of the sutras, or the Buddhist scriptures, is a fully enlightened human being. He is the most perfected human being, but he is seen very much as a human being. The Buddha gathers alms, eats food, and drinks water. He walks in the garden. He meditates. He sleeps. Buddha talks with his friends and students. People relate to him as a human being. We often lack this understanding. Nowadays Buddha is a myth, someone who never lived, like King Arthur of England or Gesar of Ling from Tibet. Buddha was never like one of those mythic heroes, nor was he ever like any of the gods, such as Krishna or Ram. Buddha was very much a human being. He interacted with every kind of sentient beings, and worked directly with them. That is how we should remember Buddha, and that is how we can begin to understand the story of his life. The Birth of Prince Siddhartha In the Hinayana tradition, which emphasizes the individual journey to enlightenment, Buddha is presented as an ordinary human being who came to this Earth with a full karmic history - just like the rest of us.

1 Online Talk Mitra Karl
ONLINE TALK MITRA KARL - 29. March 2020 HOSTED BY NALANDABODHI EUROPE TOPIC: REFUGE PRAYER The Meaning of the Refuge Prayer The Refuge Prayer in Sanskrit begins with the opening line that says: Namas tasmai Bhagavate Arhate Samyaksambuddhaya. Namas is basically the same as what you may know from the Indian greeting namaste, greeting or paying homage to the divine within us. Here, it is about paying homage to the Baghavat and the word tasmai means “to that” or “to the” in English: “I pay homage to the Bhagavan” (Bhagavate means “to the Bhagavan”). Let us speak about what Baghavan means a little bit later. Let’s first talk about Arhat, which is easier. Arhat in Sanskrit literally means “a worthy one” but it has been commented on in a different way in Indian Buddhism, which is reflected in its Tibetan translation drachompa that mans “foe destroyer.” That is, Ar- is taken to mean ari (“foe”) and -hat to mean han (“destroy” or “kill”). The “foes” or “enemies” that are destroyed here are not any outer enemies but our own mental afflictions. Thus, an Arhat is somebody who has overcome the mental afflictions in their own mind stream. Samyaksambuddhaya means “a completely perfect Buddha”. The word Buddha, literally “the awakened one,” is originally a general term for a realized or awakened being or a sage in many Indian spiritual traditions. For example, we also have the Pratekyabuddhas, but these are not the ones we are speaking about here. We are talking about completely perfectly awakened Buddhas, such as Buddha Shakyamuni, who have relinquished all afflictive and cognitive obscurations and realized omniscient buddha wisdom.
