Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life SHANTIDEVA’S Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life An oral explanation of Chapter 7: Enthusiasm Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche Teachings 2002 - 2003 Ann Arbor, Michigan Jewel Heart Transcript Gelek Rimpoche, Shantideva’s Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life, Chapter Seven ©2008 Ngawang Gelek Jewel Heart Transcripts are lightly to moderately edited transcrip- tions of the teachings of Kyabje Gelek Rinpoche and others teach- ers who have taught at Jewel Heart. Their purpose is to provide Rimpoche’s students, as well as all others who are interested, with these extremely valuable teachings in a way that gives one the feel- ing of being present at the teachings. JEWEL HEART 1129 Oak Valley Drive, Ann Arbor, MI 48108, USA Phone (1) 734.994.3387 www.jewelheart.org Acknowledgements This book is a moderately edited transcript of oral explana- tions given by Kyabje Gehlek Rimpoche on Chapter Seven of Shantideva’s Bodhisattvacharyavatara, A Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life. Rimpoche gave these teachings on Tuesday nights in Ann Arbor, Michigan, from May 2002 to November 2003. Rimpoche’s teachings on Shantideva’s text have continued to the present; he has now completed Chapter 8. Transcripts of Chapters Nine and Ten will be issued in separate volumes as they are completed. The transcripts on Chapters One through Eight are already available through Jewel Heart. Throughout this transcript, Rimpoche uses the English translation by Stephen Batchelor, published by the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives. Since Rinpoche frequently makes reference to Tibetan words and phrasing, the Tibetan translation of the Sanskrit original is included in Wylie translit- eration in Apprendix II. Rinpoche did not introduce a traditional extensive outline in giving this teaching. For those interested, an outline of this sort may be found in Geshe Kelsang Gyatso’s Meaningful to Behold. The headings, subheadings and footnotes in this pre- sent volume have been added by the editor for ease of refer- ence, and to help delineate changes of topic. A brief bibli- ograpy is included. For a glossary, see the transcript on Chap- ters One through Three in this series. The transcription of these teachings from recordings was done by Hartmut Sagolla. It has been my great good fortune to be able to work on this volume. Errors in this transcript are solely due to my carelessness or lack of knowledge. Please let me know about any you may find in order that we may improve fu- ture editions. May this work be of great benefit to all who read it or even hear about it! Jang chub sem chog rin po che May the precious bodhimind Ma kye pa nam kye gyur chig Not yet born arise and grow.

  • Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh
    Marjaana Jauhola Marjaana craps of Hope in Banda Aceh examines the rebuilding of the city Marjaana Jauhola of Banda Aceh in Indonesia in the aftermath of the celebrated SHelsinki-based peace mediation process, thirty years of armed conflict, and the tsunami. Offering a critical contribution to the study of post-conflict politics, the book includes 14 documentary videos Scraps of Hope reflecting individuals’ experiences on rebuilding the city and following the everyday lives of people in Banda Aceh. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh Banda in Hope of Scraps in Banda Aceh Marjaana Jauhola mirrors the peace-making process from the perspective of the ‘outcast’ and invisible, challenging the selective narrative and ideals of the peace as a success story. Jauhola provides Gendered Urban Politics alternative ways to reflect the peace dialogue using ethnographic and in the Aceh Peace Process film documentarist storytelling. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh tells a story of layered exiles and displacement, revealing hidden narratives of violence and grief while exposing struggles over gendered expectations of being good and respectable women and men. It brings to light the multiple ways of arranging lives and forming caring relationships outside the normative notions of nuclear family and home, and offers insights into the relations of power and violence that are embedded in the peace. Marjaana Jauhola is senior lecturer and head of discipline of Global Development Studies at the University of Helsinki. Her research focuses on co-creative research methodologies, urban and visual ethnography with an eye on feminisms, as well as global politics of conflict and disaster recovery in South and Southeast Asia.

Conditions for the preservation of skeletal material were highly favourable, and the three major dumps of rubbish on the site were found to contain large quantities of animal bone. Many of the specimens recovered were sufficiently intact to allow measurement, and for the first time for the city of London, it has been possible to carry out a detailed statistical analysis of mammalian bone from late medieval and early Tudor contexts. An account of this study, carried out at the British Museum (Natural History) between 1974-77, forms the subject of this th e sis.

As a witness to this amazing cultural exchange in the culinary world, it gives me great joy to see Japanese knives highly regarded and used by esteemed chefs worldwide. Although I am not a chef or a restaurateur, I believe that my role in this industry is to find the highest quality tools from Japan in hopes that they may assist you in reaching your career goals. While making this knife catalog, we did extensive research to provide our readers with as much information as possible so as to maximize the potential of the knives and services offered through Korin.
