W elcome to the Intercollegiate Diamond Way Buddhist Network. This organization was founded in January 2003 by groups and centers affiliated with universities throughout the Americas and around the globe. Our general goal is to create a support structure for all new and previously established university groups and to make Diamond Way Buddhism accessible to all university and high school students and professors. This site offers centralized access to all major Diamond Way Websites and Online Teachings , as well as personalized access for university group organizers. If there isn't currently a Diamond Way Center in your area, resources are readily available for starting a new university-affiliated group on your campus or in town. In addition, we've also provided a means for professors to invite Buddhist teachers to speak in their classes as guest lecturers. Our ultimate aim is to form a chain of well-functioning Diamond Way Buddhist groups, based on friendship and idealism, which will be capable of hosting Karma Kagyu teachers such as The 17th Karmapa Thaye Dorje, Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche, Lama Ole Nydahl, and their senior students for lecture tours on university campuses worldwide. Eventually we would like to translate the site into many languages so that our friends throughout Europe, Russia, and Latin America will be able to use it as well. We are part of a worldwide network of over 400 Diamond Way Buddhist Meditation Centers in the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.

About Us Schedules Drum Team Eagle Dance ... Shambhala Tibetan Buddhism Tibetan Buddhism stems from the influence of two major sources, Buddhism and yoga. Initially brought to Tibet by Padmasambhava in the 8th Century, Tibetan Buddhism incorporates both Hindu yogic and Tantra practices as well as the classical teachings of The Buddha . It concentrates on the removal of suffering from all beings, with the understanding that no one person can alleviate individual suffering until all other beings have been liberated from it as well. The path of traditional Buddhism is based on morality, concentration, wisdom, and denunciation of the personal ego. The second path, the Tantric path, is the cornerstone of Tibetan Buddhism, blending the Buddhist sutra (sacred text) teachings with those of the Hindu yoga and Tantra. The Tantric path seeks to transform basic human passions of desire and aversion into spiritual growth and development. Thus, instead of denying primal sexual and sensual urges as in traditional Buddhism, the practice of Tantra accepts these urges as sacred life force energy, which is purified and transformed into wholesome and healthy forces connecting the individual with higher spiritual awareness. In order to be successful with Tantric work, one must have skill in both self-control and acceptance of self and others. Tibetan Tantra, also known as Vajrayana, draws on the core teachings of both Mahayana and Hinayana, two schools of Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism emphasizes the help that the gods and the bodhisattvas can give to people to help them escape samsara, the continual cycle of death and rebirth. Mahayana doctrines teach selflessness, the bodhisattva stages, perfections and prayers to achieve perfect alignment for the sake of all sentient beings. Hinayana, sometimes called “the little way," emphasizes personal emancipation rather than being concerned with the burdens of others. While those who practice Hinayana initially do not do so with the intent of obtaining Buddhahood, eventually this path too may lead to Mahayana and enlightenment.

Jump from an aircraft at 12,000 feet and adopt the Lotus position. Make sure you have a parachute on. Be aware, though, that when you sit in this meditation pose, you fall much faster than normal spread-eagled skydivers. Lama Ole Nydahl had a parachute on when he decided to jump and "sit" - a position suggested to him by his parachuting instructor. The Danish Buddhist guru is no stranger to dropping from the sky. This was his 88th jump. But caught up in the "wonderful experience", he failed to take full account of the increased velocity of plummeting to Earth "Buddha-like". Lama Ole, as he is known, teaches his students of Diamond Way Buddhism how to prepare for death. On this sunny day in July in Germany he narrowly avoided having to put his teachings of "conscious dying" into practice. Realizing that he was about to hit the ground, he pulled his emergency ripcord. His 'chute partially slowed his descent as his body smashed on to a concrete landing site.

Selective attention is also given to Buddhism in Southeast and East Asia, and the contemporary West. The approach of these programs is non-sectarian, scholarly, and critical, relying on the best of contemporary Western and traditional Buddhist scholarship. At the same time, they are also informed and nourished by students' "hands-on" exploration of the major Buddhist meditative traditions and by contact with the living lineages of Asian and Western teachers.

129. Tibetan Buddhism And Research Psychology: A Match Made In Nirvana? APA Monitor article (December 2003) describes research collaboration between somepsychologists and Buddhist monks in the areas of emotional control and http://www.apa.org/monitor/dec03/tibetan.html

Volume 34, No. 11 December 2003 Spirituality and mental health "There is a lot we can learn from these traditions. The time is right for collaboration." Richard Davidson University of Wisconsin-Madison Tibetan Buddhism and research psychology: a match made in Nirvana? Collaborations between monks and psychologists yield new directions in psychological research. BY SADIE F. DINGFELDER Monitor staff Print version: page 46 With an eye toward understanding the inner workings of the mind and using that knowledge to reduce human suffering, psychologists and Buddhist monks may have more in common than they realize, and possibly even compatible methodology. These commonalities are driving collaborations between some psychologists and Buddhist monks. Richard Davidson, PhD, a psychology professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, for one, believes that the shared goals and empiricism of these two traditions could lead to useful advances for each. Tibetan Buddhism, says Davidson, is not a dogmatic religion; knowledge in the tradition is gained by examining one's own experience. Monks train for years to become expert observers of the inner workings of their own minds, he says. Research psychology, on the other hand, attempts to understand mental processes by focusing on third-person observation and de-emphasizing subjective observations of mental phenomena, he explains. Davidson, who explores brain states and their relationship to human experiences such as consciousness and emotion, recently headed a conference titled "Investigating the mind: exchanges between Buddhism and the biobehavioral sciences on how the mind works." At the symposium, which was held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in September, researchers in psychology, neuroscience and other fields discussed theories of cognitive control and attention, mental imagery and emotion with Tibetan Buddhist scholars, including the Dalai Lama. The conference is the second in a series sponsored by MIT and the Mind and Life Institute. The meetings are part of an ongoing series intended to illuminate potential areas for fruitful collaboration between Western science and Tibetan Buddhism.

STATEMENT DB-565-4 TIBETAN BUDDHISTS: Exiled from Their Homeland, Extolled in the West (Part Four in a Four-Part Series on Buddhism in North America) by J. Isamu Yamamoto Summary After the Chinese communists annexed Tibet and severely oppressed the Tibetan people, thousands of Tibetans, including the Dalai Lama, fled their homeland. Many came to the West, bringing with them their religion, which is the focus of their cultural identity and which they have imparted to a growing number of Westerners. Like the other branches of Buddhism, Tibetan or Tantric Buddhism traces its roots to the teachings and life of Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha. Meanwhile, having adopted elements of Bon, the indigenous religion of Tibet, and Tantrism, an Indian metaphysical system, Tibetan Buddhism has developed into an exceptionally distinctive form of Buddhism. David Young and I served the Red Cross together in the 1960s — a time when many of us in our college years were struggling with political and social issues while searching for meaning for our lives. It was during those years, but prior to our meeting each other, that David became a Tibetan Buddhist and I became a Christian. As an African American, David grew up in a black Baptist church, but he felt his religious upbringing inadequately equipped him for the struggles he would face as an African-American adult. After a couple of white college students befriended David, they shared their newly found faith in Tibetan Buddhism with him. This Asian religion intrigued David. He identified with a people who were being oppressed by another people. He was fascinated with the emphasis on world peace preached by the Dalai Lama. But most of all, he was captivated by the unity and love he saw among different races within this religion — something he hadn’t seen in Christianity.

The two-year suspended death sentence handed down by the Chinese authorities was due up on the 7th April 2004. The manner in which the initial trial was conducted and the sentence handed down on 7th April 2002, were deemed by many to be highly suspect. There is every chance that Tenzin Deleg Rinpoche will face a life sentence, or worse still, death by execution. There is little time left to make an impression on the Chinese, but what time is left can be used to great effect. Follow the link to Free Tibet Campaign's information on how you can help, by clicking on the image of the Houses of Parliament. Further links to Tenzin Deleg Rinpoche's case are listed in Free Tibet News The resistance movement inside Tibet is facing an intensified crackdown by the Chinese authorities in their pursuit of eradicating any opposition to their rule. The lack of any substantive effort on the part of the British, European and United States governments to stop the Chinese abusing the Human Rights of Tibetans is appalling! What chance have the Tibetans got of the UK government's support, when Tony Blair will not even make room in his diary to meet the Dalai Lama when he visits Britain in May and June of this year? The Foreign Office and 10 Downing Street may well turn around and hint at the quiet diplomacy that goes on, but frankly, it is not good enough. For decades now, ever since the 1950s, the Tibetans have been terrorised by Chinese authority over their homeland, and the world has effectively stood by and watched it happen.

We know very little of history of Buddhism till the reign of emperor Ashoka , who transformed Buddhism into a great world religion. In the following pictures, two distinct aspects of Buddhism in India can be seen: one ancient (Ashokan and subsequent) and the other the Buddhism as practiced and advocated by the Tibetans (now in India as refugees). The contribution of Buddhist teachings on the Hinduism (sixth century B.C. onwards) was great and led to several reforms of Hinduism. Some Hindus believe that Buddha was one of the avatars of Lord Vishnu himself. The contribution of arts inspired by Buddha was also great and can be seen in the caves of Ajanta and many other edicts spread across India. Indeed, the lions of Sarnath became the emblem of free India.

137. Tibetan Art Of Divination Article explaining various tibetan divination techniques. From The Office of Tibet, the official agency of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in London. http://www.tibet.com/Buddhism/divination.html

Tibetan art of divination By Dorjee Tseten Tibetan Bulletin March - April 1995 Although means of telling the future were employed in Tibet, before the advent of Buddhism, they are not regarded as an alien remnant outside the Buddhist framework that it is occasionally convenient to call upon. Rather, they are used within the sphere of Buddhist concepts, functioning in accordance with Buddhist principles such as karma. There are no references to divination in the collections of sutras, but many can be found in the tantras. Purpose: By looking into someone's future, the diviner or medium can assess the particular situation and recommend how to respond or deal with it Remedial action, in the form of rituals, evokes positive forces and can result in a change in the person's fortune. Rituals will not change a person's karma, and those requesting and performing a divination are aware of this. However, they can induce latent positive potential to take precedence over that which is perceived as the cause of an impending misfortune. The efficacy of a ritual involves the patron making offerings of food and money to the monks or adepts performing it. The merit acquired from this gift is used to trigger the forces of latent positive potential in oneself or others. Thus, one is not transferring merit and stepping outside the laws of cause and effect, but merely using merit to awaken the forces of one's own or other's good karma.
