Indeed, I have learnt from him my first lesson of history, society, economy, politics and administration of the hill town Darjeeling. My rearing in Darjeeling hills (from Kindergarten to College days) helped me to understand the issues with a difference. My parents provided the every possible congenial space to learn and understand the history of Darjeeling and history of the people of Darjeeling. Soon after my post- graduation from this University, located in the foot-hills of the Darjeeling Himalayas, I was encouraged to take up a study on Darjeeling by my teachers.

    Buddhism in Sikkim: a Study in Cultural Syncretism Richa Raj*, Alice Rai, Maxine P

    DU Journal of Undergraduate Research and Innovation Volume 1 Issue 2, Page 291-302 Buddhism in Sikkim: A Study in Cultural Syncretism Richa Raj*, Alice Rai, Maxine P. Mathew, Naina Johnson, Neethu Mathew, Osheen Magu, Shivangi Singh, Srishti Gupta, Supriya Sinha, Tanya Ranjan, Urvashi Bhardwaj [email protected] Jesus and Mary College, University of Delhi, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi. 110021 ABSTRACT This study aims at „de-mystifying‟ the diverse Buddhist culture of Sikkim through an analysis of its origins, belief systems, symbols, architecture, as well as the evolving culture of the monasteries using audio and visual documentation and interviews as tools. At the same time it attempts to document the cultural assimilation of other traditions (such as Hinduism) into this religious tradition. It was observed that the religious practices of Buddhism in Sikkim were influenced by the dominant Hindu religion and pre-Buddhist religions such as Bonism. The religious assimilation of different cultures in Buddhism is mainly seen in the ritualistic practices while the architectural style was influenced by the Tibetan and localized artistic forms. This assimilation can be widely viewed among the recently-converted Buddhists, that is, the Tamang and Gurung castes. Keywords: Buddhism, culture, philosophy, rituals, Sikkim, Tibetan. INTRODUCTION About 2,500 years ago, Shakyamuni Buddha attained enlightenment after many years of intensive spiritual practice, leading to the development of one of the world‟s great religions. Standing for compassion, forbearance, love, non-violence and patience, Buddhism further percolated to the neighbouring countries forming its own identity therein. As heresy against Brahmanism, it sprang from the kshatriya clans of eastern India and advocated the middle path.

    Dina Bangdel (*1963-2017) by Christiane Brosius

    Dina Bangdel (*1963-2017) by Christiane Brosius Dina Bangdel is no more, at least not on this earth. She died on 25 July 2017 in a US-American hospital from the aftermath of a sinus-operation and meningitis. With her demise, we pay farewell not only to a remarkable scholar and energetic colleague, but also to a passionate teacher, facilitator and curator of art in Nepal, both in Nepal and beyond. With most of her higher education undertaken in the USA, she received her PhD from Ohio State University. Since several years, she was director of Art History Program at Virginia Commonwealth University in Doha, Qatar. She was also on the Board of Directors of the Nepal Art Council, among other positions of patronage and expertise. At the time Dina fell ill, she was involved in many different activities, most in collaboration with different agents and institutions, both in Nepal and internationally. She had several exhibitions in the planning: one exhibition was a retrospective on the work of her belated father Lain Singh Bangdel, famous ‘pioneer’ of Nepal’s modern art. Another exhibition on Buddhist art was planned, with the Musee Guimet, a precious Paris museum concentrating on Asian art. In March 2017, she curated an exhibition in the context of the Kathmandu Triennale 2017, entitled Built / Unbuilt : Home/City, involving artists based in Doha and artists from Kathmandu, Nepal. One of her attempts was that of enabling respectful dialogue – between ‘traditional’ and ‘contemporary’, but also between Nepali and international art worlds. She brought Qatari art history students to India, to visit the Kochi Biennale and the India Art Fair in Delhi (2015), she invited Doha-based artists to Nepal, to learn more about art from Nepal, from each other.

    Sir Charles Bell, K.C.I.E., C.M.G., F.R.G.S. by the Death of Sir Charles Alfred Bell We Have Lost a Leading Scholar of Current Tibetan

    OBITUARY NOTICE Sir Charles Bell, K.C.I.E., C.M.G., F.R.G.S. By the death of Sir Charles Alfred Bell we have lost a leading scholar of current Tibetan. His Grammar and his Dictionary of Colloquial Tibetan (1905) are standard works, and in his three works, Tibet Past and Present (1924), The People of Tibet (1928), and The Religion of Tibet (1931), he has given the most complete and authentic account of that country, its history, its people, and its religion, both from original Tibetan sources and from his own intimate knowledge of the country. Bell was the son of an Indian civilian. He was educated at Winchester, where he was a scholar, and at New College, Oxford. He entered the Indian Civil Service in Bengal in 1891, and in 1904 was appointed Assistant Political Officer in Sikkim, being promoted its Political Officer in 1908. He conducted a Political Mission to Bhutan in 1910, concluding a Treaty by which its foreign relations were placed under the British Government. He was employed at the Tibet Conference, in India, between Great Britain, China, and Tibet in 1913. He retired from the Indian Civil Service in 1919, but was recalled to conduct a Diplomatic Mission to Lhasa in 192D, remaining there for eleven months. Afterwards he travelled in Tibet, Mongolia, and Siberia. In 1937 he received the Lawrence Memorial Medal of the Royal Central Asian Society. Sir Charles Bell began his study of Tibetan in 1900, when he was Joint Magistrate at Darjeeling, and he compiled his Grammar and Dictionary of Colloquial Tibetan when he was Sub-Divisional Officer of Kalimpong in that District, both under the present writer.

The Buddha lived and taught in the northeastern Indian subcontinent some time between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE.[2] He is recognized by adherents as an awakened teacher who shared his insights to help sentient beings end suffering (or dukkha), achieve nirvana, and escape what is seen as a cycle of suffering and rebirth. Two major branches of Buddhism are recognized: Theravada ("The School of the Elders") and Mahayana ("The Great Vehicle"). Theravada—the oldest surviving branch—has a widespread following in Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, and Mahayana is found throughout East Asia and includes the traditions of Pure Land, Zen, Nichiren Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism, Shingon, Tendai and Shinnyo-en. In some classifications Vajrayana, a subcategory of Mahayana, is recognized as a third branch.
  • Locating Nepalese Mobility: a Historical Reappraisal with Reference to North East India, Burma and Tibet Gaurab KC* & Pranab Kharel**

    Locating Nepalese Mobility: a Historical Reappraisal with Reference to North East India, Burma and Tibet Gaurab KC* & Pranab Kharel**

    Volume 6 Issue 2 November 2018 Kathmandu School of Law Review Locating Nepalese Mobility: A Historical Reappraisal with Reference to North East India, Burma and Tibet Gaurab KC* & Pranab Kharel** Abstract Most literature published on migration in Nepal makes the point of reference from 19th century by stressing the Lahure culture—confining the trend’s history centering itself on the 200 years of Nepali men serving in British imperial army. However, the larger story of those non-military and non-janajati (ethnic) Nepali pilgrimages, pastoralists, cultivators and tradesmen who domiciled themselves in Burma, North East India and Tibet has not been well documented in the mobility studies and is least entertained in the popular imagination. Therefore, this paper attempts to catalog this often neglected outmigration trajectory of Nepalis. Migrants venturing into Burma and North East India consist of an inclusive nature as the imperial army saw the overwhelming presence of hill janajatis in their ranks whereas Brahmins (popularly known as Bahuns) and Chettris were largely self-employed in dairy farming and animal husbandry. In tracing out the mobility of Nepalis to North East, Burma and Tibet it can be argued that the migrating population took various forms such as wanderers (later they became settlers), mercantilist, laborers, mercenary soldiers, and those settlers finally forced to become returnees. In this connection, documenting lived experiences of the living members or their ancestors is of paramount importance before the memory crosses the Rubicon. Introduction: In the contemporary Nepali landscape, the issue of migration has raised new interests for multiple actors like academicians, administrators, activists, development organizations, planners, policymakers, and students.

    Wheel-Weapon Mind Training

    Wheel-Weapon Mind Training by Dharmarakshita Translation Geshe Lhundub Sopa with Michael Sweet & Leonard Zwilling excerpt from Peacock in the Poison Grove Two Buddhist Texts on Training the Mind © Wisdom Publications All rights reserved Permission granted for use in the FPMT Basic Program by Wisdom Publications. The Wheel-Weapon Mind Training Homage to the Three Jewels. The Wheel-Weapon That Strikes at the Enemy’s Vital Spot I bow down to the Great wrathful One, Yamantaka. 1 When the peacocks roam the jungle of virulent poison, the flocks take no delight in gardens of medicinal plants, no matter how beautiful they may be, for peacocks thrive on the essence of virulent poison. 2 Similarly, when the heroes roam the jungle of cyclic existence, they do not become attached to the garden of happiness and prosperity, no matter how beautiful it may be, for heroes thrive in the jungle of suffering. 3 Therefore, it is due to cowardice that persons avidly pursue their own happiness and so come to suffer; and it is due to heroism that bodhisattvas, willingly taking the suffering of others onto themselves, are always happy. 4 Now here, desire is like a jungle of virulent poison: the hero, like the peacock, masters it; the coward, like the crow, perishes. 5 How can persons concerned only with their own desires master this poison? If they involve themselves in the other afflictions as well, it will cost them their chance for emancipation, just like the crow. 6 Thus the bodhisattva roams like the peacock in the forest of cyclic existence, converting the afflictions, which are like a jungle of virulent poisons, into an elixir.
