Dharamsala
14 August 2006 (phayul.com) - His Holiness the Dalai Lama today began a 5 day long
teaching at the special request by a group of around 200 from Korea
from morning 9:30 local time here at the Tsuglagkhang Temple in the
Northern Indian hill town of Dharamsala. The teaching, beginning today, will end on 18th August.
According to the official Website of His Holiness, www.dalailama.com,
the teaching will cover Chapter 9 on The Perfection of Wisdom from A
Guide to the Bodhisattva's Way of Life (chodjug) by Shantideva along
with a teaching on The 37 Practices of A Bodhisattva (lak-len
so-dun-ma) and Chapters 18, 22, 24 & 26 of Nagarjuna's The
Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way (Uma Tsawa Sherab).
This
is His Holiness' first mass public appearance since His last teaching
to a group of Taiwanese towards the last week of June this year.
Earlier
in August, His Holiness spent much of His time, including His 71st
Birthday on July 6, taking rest due to some minor health concerns and
had to cancel His, otherwise, very tight and busy official programs. The teaching is scheduled to be from 9:30 to 1:30 in the morning and afternoon from 1: 30 to3:30 local time all through the 5 days’ teaching. |
