Palpung Monastery (〔}〕) is the name of the congregation of monasteries and centers of the Tai Situpa lineage of the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism as well as the name of the Tai Situ's monastic seat in Derge, Kham (modern Sichuan). Palpung means "glorious union of study and practice". It originated in the 12th century and wielded considerable religious and political influence over the centuries.〔http://www.khamaid.org/about_kham/articles/palpunghistory.htm〕 The current monastery is said to have been founded in 1727〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.palpung.org/english/monastery/briefin.asp )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.tibettravel.org/tibettravel/html/2010460556-1.Html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kagyuoffice.org/kagyulineage.html )〕 by King Denba Tsering. It is the seat of four lines of incarnate lamas, the best-known being the Tai Situpa〔http://www.asianart.com/cers/palpung/palpung.html〕 as well as the Jamgon Kongtrul and the Second Beru Khyentse. The temple has historically been associated with the Karmapas: for instance, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, 16th Karmapa, was enthroned first at Palpung before traveling to his main seat at Tsurphu Monastery in Ü-Tsang. The 16th Tai Situpa, Pema Tönyö Nyinje, has established a new monastic seat in exile at Sherap Monastery (). There are an estimated 40 monks residing in the monastery itself and a larger number resident in the surrounding region. ==History== Palpung Monastery is the historical seat of the successive incarnations of the Tai Situ in Kham. It is also the mother monastery of the Karma Kagyu in Kham and evolved into the center of the Rimé movement. The seat in exile, outside of Tibet, Sherap Monastery, is in India. The congregation has monasteries and centers around the world. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Palpung Monastery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
