| ARTICLES RELATED TO Kalachakra | | | |  Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Je Tsongkhapa - Early yearsBorn in Amdo province of Tibet during 1357, Tsongkhapa received full lay ordination at the age of three from the 4th Karmapa Rolpey Dorje (Rol-pa'i Rdo-rje) and entitled Kunga Nyingpo (Kun-dga' Snying-po). Then later, at seven, he took a second set of vows from Chöjey Dhondup Rinchen (Chos-rje Don-'grub Rin-chen) and was entitled Lobsang Drakpa (Slob-bsang Graks-pa). It was to his credit then, that at such an early age, he was able to receive the empowerments of Heruka Chakrasamvara, Hevajra, and Yamantaka, three of the most prominent wrath ...

| | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Kelsang Gyatso - Journey to the West In 1968 Kelsang Gyatso accepted an invitation to live and teach in a center (being planned in Canada) by the Christian monk, philosopher and writer Thomas Merton, who was journeying through India that year. These plans were cut short due to Merton's sudden death and so the center did not evolve.
In 1977 Kelsang Gyatso was invited by Lama Thubten Yeshe to teach at Manjushri Institute an FPMT (Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition) center in England, founded by Lama Yeshe. Later he took over the Manjushri Institute ( ...

| | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Sakya - Subschools In due course, two subsects emerged from the main Sakya lineage,
Ngor, founded by Ngorchen Kunga Zangpo (b.1382)
Tshar, founded by Tsarchen Losal Gyamtso (1496 - 1560)
The Bodong and Jonangpa also had strong links to Sakya.
History of the Jonangpa. In the early 14th century the monk Sherab Gyeltsen broke away from the Sakyapa school and established the Jonangpa school at Jonang, about 160 km northwest of the Tashilhunpo monastery in Shigatse. There, the Jonangpa built a large monaste ...

| | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Kelsang Gyatso - Life in India After the exodus of Tibet in 1959, Kelsang Gyatso stayed at the initial location of his monastery, in Buxar. Later, after Prime Minister Nehru donated large tracts of land in South India to the community in exile, the monastery moved South. At this time, Kelsang Gyatso left the monastery at Buxar for Mussoorie (a hill station in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh). According to the Sera Expulsion Letter, he stayed there for several years as a chronic tuberculosis patient. It is during this ti ...

| | | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Kalki - Modern variations of the Kalki Prophecy
Kalki - Theosophy Christianity.
Some Theosophists and New Age speculators have declared the Kalki prophecies and those of the Maitreya Buddha of Buddhism, might actually refer to one and the same individual, and they and others have noted similarities of the Kalki prophecy to the Rider on the White Horse in the Christian book of Revelation who has been interpreted as a herald of the Second Coming of Christ, or by some (who seem to take the passage out of its larger context), to be Jesus himself. In such in ...

| | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Agni Yoga - Divisions The question of divisions within Agni Yoga is a sensitive one. First, the writings themselves urge unity and cooperation within the group, and discourage criticism of anyone else's teacher (on the "by thy God" principle). Second, not every division has been based on reasons which elevate and uplift all those who contemplate them. And yet, the issue of whom to recognize as one's guru is a most weighty one, which cannot simply be glossed over with an appeal to the ultimate unity of all religions.
Outside of Russia a number of Roerich groups have arisen, with none of them aspiring to grou ...

| | | | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Samsara - Saṃsāra in Buddhism
Samsara - Saṃsāra in Nikaya Buddhism.
Whereas in Hinduism some being (ātman, jiva, etc.) is regarded as being subject to Saṃsāra, Buddhism was founded on a rejection of such metaphysical substances, and originally accounts for the process of rebirth/reincarnation by appeal to phenomenological or psychological constituents. Later schools of Buddhism such as the Pudgalavada, however, re-introduce the concept of a "person" which transmigrates. The basic idea that there is a cycle of birth and rebirth is, howe ...

| | | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Buddhist texts - Vajrayana Texts
Buddhist texts - Buddhist tantras.
The canon of the Vajrayana schools includes a number of Nikaya-related texts from a number of the schools, as well as Mahayana sutras. However it is the specifically Vajrayana texts that most strongly characterise it. They are considered to be the word of the Buddha, and the Tibetan Canon contains translations of almost 500 tantras and over 2000 commentaries to them. The texts are typically concerned with elaborate rituals and meditations.
A late Tibetan t ...

| | | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Buddhist texts - Non-canonical texts Non or semi-canonical texts have been important from very early in Buddhism. Extensive commentaries exist in Pali for the Pali Canon and in Tibetan, Chinese and other East Asian Languages.
Important examples of non-canonical texts are the Visuddhimagga, or Path of Purification, by Buddhaghosa, which is a compendium of Theravada teachings that include quotes from the Pali Canon. The Milinda Pañha, or Questions of Milinda, is a popular condensation of the Dharma in the form of a dialogue between the Buddhist sage Nāga ...

Buddhist texts - Perfection of Wisdom Texts.
Deal with prajñā (wisdom or insight). Wisdom in this context means the ability to see Reality as it truly is. Do not contain an elaborate philosophical argument, but simply try to point to the true nature of reality, especially through the use of paradox. The basic premise is a radical non-dualism, in which every, and any dichotomist way of seeing things are denied: so p ...

| | | | | Kalachakra: Encyclopedia II - Buddhist texts - Canonical texts These are, in some way or other, texts associated with Gautama, the historical Buddha. Different schools, however, are not always in agreement about which texts are canonical, and the various recensions of the Buddhist Canon contain widely varying numbers and types of texts. Broadly speaking, the texts come in three types: sutras (i.e. discourses), vinaya (relating to the rules of monastic discipline), and abhidharma (analytical texts). Together these three make up what is known in Sanskrit as the Tripitaka and in Pali as the Tipitaka. Both ...
