83. Tibetan Buddhism, The Mongolian Religion This historical background may also indicate that tibetan buddhism, These factorscombined to further the spread of tibetan buddhism among the Mongolian http://www.innermongolia.org/english/tibetan_buddhism.htm

Tibetan Buddhism, The Mongolian Religion By Professor Sechin Jagchid , originally published on Common Voice, Volume 1 Regardless of what explanation monks or clergymen may give regarding religion, it is a phenomenon of human culture and society. As for the reasons why nations adopt a particular foreign religion, they may explain it as a destiny set by God, as the will of Heaven, or due to other affinities. Nevertheless, there are historical and cultural factors. These factors provide some explanation as to why the Mongols, at the peak of their power, adopted Tibetan Buddhism as their religious faith. The Mongolian Khan's choice of this religion seems to have been based on cultural similarities between the Mongols and the Tibetans, and their mutual distance-geographical and culturalfrom the Chinese. Both Mongolia and Tibet are high plateaus of Inner Asia, and their open steppes and cold, arid climate make them well-suited to nomadism. On account of similarities in their geographic circumstances, both Tibet and Mongolia developed a similar cultural style: Nomadic pastoralism. It was thus, easier for the Mongols to mingle with seminomadic Tibetans than with purely agricultural Chinese, who were far different in their social and cultural institutions. Before the Tibetans were converted to Buddhism, their original religious belief was known as Bon, a faith similar to Boe of the Mongols. This historical background may also indicate that Tibetan Buddhism, that fit so naturally into the culture of the "!and of Snows", was also more easily accepted by the Mongols than Sinicised Buddhism, which had naturally accommodated itself to an agricultural civilisation.

The main student of Jetsun Dragpa Gyaltsen was his nephew, the son of Palchen Opoche, the famous Sakya Pandita Kunga Gyaltsen (1182-1251). He studied Buddhist and non-Buddhist philosophy, tantra, logic, Sanskrit, poetry, astrology and art with countless Indian, Nepalese, Kashmiri and Tibetan masters and achieved mastery over all these subjects. His works such as the Treasury of Logic on Valid Cognition (Tsema rigter) and the Discrimination of the Three Vows (Domsum rabye) are famous to this day. In all, he wrote 114 religious treatises. The Treasury of Logic on Valid Cognition was the only text of Tibetan origin ever to have been translated into the Sanskrit language. The translation was rendered by his Indian students at Nalanda University in Magadha, and was received with much acclaim.

To understand how Tibetan Buddhism differs from other Buddhist schools we need to consider its development from two different perspectives, the first ideological and the second historical. Although these are here considered separately, they of course developed with reference to each other. Ideological Development Ideologically Tibetan Buddhism is a derivation of Mahayana Buddhism heavily influenced by Tantrism. To unravel this jargon-cloaked statement, we should take a look at the essential constituents and development of Buddhism, Mahayana Buddhism and Tantrism. Buddhism The term Buddha, meaning "enlightened one", refers to the spiritual awakening of an Indian prince, named Siddhartha Gautama, who lived in the 6th century BCE. Renouncing the privileges of his royal life, he sought to investigate spiritual truth. On so doing, he passed into the state of enlightenment, known as nirvana , which literally means "without desire". Soon he inspired many disciples and came to be known as the "Sage of the Sakya tribe" or Sakyamuni. During his first sermon he established the four core principles of his teaching or dharma: 1) All beings inevitably endure suffering (duhka) 2) The cause of suffering is desire (samudaya) 3) The cause of desire can be contained (nirodha) 4) To contain the cause of desire one must follow the Buddha's path (marga) Sakyamuni taught that enlightenment was predicated on nonattachment to the material world. He found that language could not be used to convey the sense of enlightenment, which was described as consisting of neither fullness nor emptiness, being nor nonbeing, substance nor nonsubstance. However, the process of seeking enlightenment could be identified and defined, as suggested by his ascetic life as well as by his fourth law, written above. The seeker needs a lifestyle and environment conducive to purity of thought, word and action. This is the motivation for Buddhist monasticism.

Sogyal Rinpoche RIGPA is a Tibetan word which in general means 'intelligence' or 'awareness.' In Dzogchen, however, the highest teachings in the Buddhist tradition of Tibet, rigpa has a deeper connotation, 'the innermost nature of the mind.' The whole of the teaching of Buddha is directed towards realizing this, our ultimate nature, the state of omniscience or enlightenmenta truth so universal, so primordial that it goes beyond all limits, and beyond even religion itself. Sogyal Rinpoche gave the name 'Rigpa' to his work and to the vehicle he was developing to serve the Buddha's teaching in the west. Now an international network with centers and groups in 23 countries around the world, Rigpa seeks: To make the teachings of Buddha available to benefit as many people as possible, and To offer those following the Buddhist teachings a complete path of study and practice, along with the environment they need to explore the teachings to their fullest.

94. Buddhist Near-death Experiences The Buddhist concept of the afterlife. The Tibetan Book of the Dead is ostensibly a A guide to tibetan buddhism introducing distinctive Tibetan practices. http://www.near-death.com/buddhism.html

Near-Death Experiences of Buddhists The Buddhist concept of the afterlife The Tibetan Book of the Dead is ostensibly a book describing the experiences to be expected at the moment of death, during an intermediate phase lasting forty-nine days, and during rebirth into another bodily frame. This however is merely the esoteric framework which the Tibetan Buddhists used to cloak their mystical teachings. The language and symbolism of death rituals of Bonism , the traditional pre-Buddhist Tibetan religion, were skillfully blended with Buddhist conceptions. The esoteric meaning is that it is death and rebirth of the ego that is described, not of the body. Tibetan lama Govinda indicates this clearly in his introduction when he writes: "It is a book for the living as well as for the dying." The book's esoteric meaning is often concealed beneath many layers of symbolism. It was not intended for general reading. It was designed to be understood only by one who was to be initiated personally by a guru into the Buddhist mystical doctrines, into the pre-mortem death-rebirth experience. These doctrines have been kept a closely guarded secret for many centuries, for fear that naive or careless application would do harm. In publishing this practical interpretation, we are in a sense breaking with the tradition of secrecy and thus contravening the teachings of the lama-gurus.

By bestowing clothing on others we gain more beauty. By donating abodes of purity and truth we acquire great treasures."

Exploring the Mandala Mandalas In Tibetan Buddhism, a mandala is an imaginary palace that is contemplated during meditation. Each object in the palace has significance , representing some aspect of wisdom or reminding the meditator of some guiding principle. Tradition dictates the shapes, sizes and colors of these objects. There are many different mandalas, each with different lessons to teach. Most mandalas contain a host of deities as well as inanimate objects. An excellent overview and glossary of mandala components is available on the web Sand Paintings Mandalas are usually displayed in two dimension, and are commonly made from paper, textiles, and colored sand. In a sand painting the sand is dyed and then carefully placed on a large, flat table. The construction process takes several days, and the mandala is destroyed shortly after its completion. The three dimensional mandala is projected in a unique way that displays the interior as well as the walls of the palace. The deities are represented as Sanskrit characters. These two images show sand paintings of the Vajrabhairava mandala. It is a fairly simple mandala, containing a mere thirteen deities (many mandalas contain hundreds). Pema Losang Chogyen is shown constructing a sand painting at Cornell University's Johnson Museum of Art in March of 1991. Images from a
