Introduction to Buddhism

O The Buddha was born Siddhartha Gautama, a prince of the Sakya tribe of Nepal, in approximately 566 BC. When he was twentynine years old, he left the comforts of his home to seek the meaning of the suffering he saw around him. After six years of arduous yogic training, he abandoned the way of self-mortification and instead sat in mindful meditation beneath a bodhi tree. On the full moon of May, with the rising of the morning star, Siddhartha Gautama became the Buddha, the enlightened one. The Buddha wandered the plains of northeastern India for 45 years more, teaching the path or Dharma he had realized in that moment. Around him developed a community or Sangha of monks and, later, nuns, drawn from every tribe and caste, devoted to practicing this path. In approximately 486 BC, at the age of 80, the Buddha died.

About Thangka Painting

A brief introduction to Thangka painting Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket Tibetan Thangka painting originated in the 7th century during the reign of King Songtsen Gampo, who invited Nepalese artists to Tibet to execute paintings in the new Tsuglagkhang (main temple) in Lhasa. Later, in the 11th century, Thangka painting in Western Tibet began to draw inspiration from Kashmiri schools of painting when the great monk-scholar Rinchen Sangpo brought Kashmiri artists to Tibet. However, these influences diminished as Buddhism began to wane in India, with the result that Nepalese styles prevailed. From the 14th century, Chinese styles also had some impact on Thangka painting, but by that time, a distinctive Tibetan style that combined these various influences had emerged. During the centuries that followed, several schools of painting arose which survive until today.</h6>

"Tibetan Buddhism: Vajrayana"

Vajrayana Buddhism emerged in Tibet in about the 7th century C.E. Its prominent symbol is the 'vajra', translated as diamond or thunderbolt. It has a number of distinctive beliefs and practices that set it apart form earlier forms of Buddhism, including mantras and visualizations as meditation techniques. The third of the four ordinary foundations outlined in the Torch of Certainty, written by the nineteenth century Tibetan scholar Jamgon Kongtrul, is the law of moral causation known as karma. This article explores the concept of impermanence (anicca) with reference to The Torch of Certainty, written by the nineteenth century Tibetan scholar Jamgon Kongtrul. Impermanence is a fundamental concept in Buddhism and permeates the Buddha's teachings. The third of the four special foundations of Vajrayana Buddhism is the Mandala-Offering. Essential to this ritual are the six perfections - giving, morality, patience, vigor, meditation, and wisdom.

    Bhudda's Paranirvana

    Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

    The Buddha's entrance into nirvana [the state without reincarnation] was depicted in quit Buddhist art early on, mostly in monumental stone or rock sculptures. This figur to however is made of bronce, which was firegildet. The Buddha passed away at the acts of eighty to near Kushinagara, the capital of the ancient kingdom of the Mallas in what today the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. Lying down in grove, between two shala trees, he preached his last sermon: “All composite things ploughs by nature impermanent. Work out you salvation with diligence.” The Mahaparinibbana Sutra, the standard canonical Pali account, recalls the death scene. The gods Brahma and Indra recited poems. Gods and men wept. “Too soon hat the Happy One passed away! Too soon has the light one gone out of the world” Only the Arhats, the saints who had passed beyond all worldly sorrow, retained to their composure.
