Nalandabodhi : ウィキペディア英語版 | Nalandabodhi
Nalandabodhi is a Tibetan Buddhist organization founded in the United States by Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche in 1997 and named after the historic Nalanda university of India. There are now Nalandabodhi centers and study groups in Mexico, Canada, Europe and Asia. "Nalanda" translates literally as "the place that confers the lotus (of spiritual knowledge)," and Bodhi translates as "enlightenment." The stated goals of Nalandabodhi are to provide a curriculum of study for students of the Dharma, publish commentaries by contemporary teachers, translate and publish historical teachings, and support the communication between western and international Buddhist practitioners. In 1998, Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche was named Spiritual Director of Nalandabodhi and has worked closely with Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche in developing the Nalandabodhi Path of Study and Path of Meditation courses.〔''Nalandabodhi: Courses''. http://nalandabodhi.org/courses/〕 ==Organization== The organization encompasses meditation centers, study groups, the Mahasiddhi Retreat Center, Nalandabodhi Publications (a publishing house), and other enterprises. Nalandabodhi is overseen by Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche and the Nalandabodhi ''Mitras'' as well as lamas and acharyas. The Mitra Council are Nalandabodhi teachers appointed by Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche in 2005 who guide the Path of Meditation and Path of Study courses for Nalandabodhi. "Mitra" is a Sanskrit word derived from kalyanamitra or "spiritual friend." Mitras are available for teaching programs, personal practice interviews and study questions, giving refuge vows, giving bodhisattva vows, reading transmissions for the preliminary practices ("ngöndro"), and wedding, funeral, and other ceremonial services.〔''Nalandabodhi: Teachers''. http://nalandabodhi.org/teachers/〕 Nalanda West, located in Seattle, Washington and inaugurated in 2005, is the primary seat for Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche and Nalandabodhi. There are also centers in other major cities throughout the United States and Canada including New York, New York; the Maitrivana center in Vancouver, British Columbia; Boulder, Colorado; and West Hartford, Connecticut. Individual study groups are located globally, and Nalandabodhi also offers the option of independent home study and online classes for their Path of Study courses.〔''Nalandabodhi: About Us''. http://nalandabodhi.org/about-us〕〔''Nalandabodhi: Centers''. http://nalandabodhi.org/community/centers〕
