Ein Vortrag von Ringu Tulku Rinpoche
Seminarraum 1 des Instituts für Südasien-, Tibet- und Buddhismuskunde
Spitalgasse 2, Hof 2.7, 1090 Wien
Vortrag
Indo-Tibetan Buddhist practice systems have traditionally emphasized the direct transmission of teachings and blessings from teacher to student in an unbroken succession originating from an enlightened being. This line of transmission is understood as sustaining the authenticity and accuracy of Buddhist instructions as it is transferred over time and space from one generation of practitioners to the next. Ringu Tulku Rinpoche, a scholar, lineage older, and transmitter of a number of Buddhist traditions including Mah?mudr? and Dzogchen, will discuss from a Buddhist perspective what is to be transmitted, the methods for transmission, and the overall meaning and significance of transmission according to the tradition itself.
