Hidden Gobi Desert Relics Found

from the August 1 BBC News:

Rare Buddhist treasures, not seen for more than 70 years, have been unearthed in the Gobi Desert.

The historic artifacts were buried in the 1930s during Mongolia's Communist purge, when hundreds of monasteries were looted and destroyed.

The relics include statues, art work, manuscripts and personal belongings of a famous 19th Century Buddhist master.

The leader of the search team, Michael Eisenriegler, described it as an "adventure of a lifetime".

A total of 64 crates of treasures were buried in the desert by a monk named Tudev, in an attempt to save them from the ransacking of the Mongolian and Soviet armies.

They belonged to Buddhist master Danzan Ravjaa and only Tudev knew where they were hidden. He passed on the secret to his grandson who dug up some of the boxes in the 1990s and opened a museum.

The current Austrian-Mongolian treasure hunt team found two more boxes. Mr Eisenriegler told the BBC World Service they were filled with "the most amazing Buddhist art objects".

"It is of tremendous value for Mongolian culture because Buddhism was almost extinct in the Communist times, especially in the 1930s.

"I'm totally exhausted right now but I'm also totally impressed with what I've seen."

The latest finds will be put on show at the Danzan Ravjaa Museum in Sainshand, 400km (450 miles) south of the Mongolian capital, Ulan Bator.

About 20 boxes remain hidden in the desert.

On Earth Day What the Dalai Lama Might Say

"Every human should have the idea of taking care of the
environment, of nature, of water. So using too much or wasting
water should have some kind of feeling or sense of concern.
Some sort of responsibility and with that, a sense of discipline."

- The 14th Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso

Or here is another quote by His Holiness:

"Interdependence is a fundamental law
of nature. Many of the smallest insects are
social beings who, without any religion,
law or education, survive by mutual cooperation
based on an innate recognition of
their interconnectedness."

Here is my challenge to you. Lets see how many
Dalai Lama quotes we can accumulate as of Earth Day.
Simply add any related quote you find in the
comments. Thanks for participating!

This post is entered in the Earth Day Contest for a chance to win some great organic products.

A New Reincarnation Enthroned

Tulku Tsenyi Kentrul Tenzin Tseten Rinpoche who
is only nine years old was enthroned in Dharamsala
on April 6, 2009. He is believed to be a reincarnation
of Geshe Lobsang Gyatso who founder the Institute of
Buddhist Dialectics. Lobsang Gyatso, was murdered
in February 1997. He was a close confidant of the Dalai Lama.

Tenzin Tseten was born May 14, 2001 and was recognized
as a reincarnation by HH the Dalai Lama in 2006. The
new Tulku comes from Leh in Jammu and Kashmir.

What joyful occassion to be celebrated.

If anyone has a picture taken of Tenzin Tseten, please

Cool Vermont Action!

Give diplomatic recognition to Tibet: US senate 7 Apr 2009

WASHINGTON : An American state Senate has adopted a resolution asking the Obama Administration and the US Congress to give "diplomatic recognition" to Tibet and take "forceful" action to end "repression" of human rights by China in the Himalayan region. Passed by the Vermont state Senate, the resolution called on the US Congress and the international community to treat the plight of the Tibetan people as an "urgent matter of highest priority." The resolution adopted last week sought recognition of the Tibetan political autonomy and also urged the US Congress and the Obama Administration to ask China to sincerely negotiate with the representatives of the Dalai Lama to solve the Tibet Problem. Condemning the continuing "repression" of the Tibetan people, the Vermont state Senate expressed its solidarity with the individuals who participated in the anti-China protests that occurred around the world on March 10. The resolution emphasised that the people of Tibet "lived in peace and harmony for centuries" and that the "army of the People's Republic of China illegally invaded" the peaceful Himalayan region. Alleging the Tibetans have been deprived of any right to self-determination, the resolution said "it is now nearly impossible" for the people of Tibet to continue their "distinctive cultural practices and religious observances." The resolution also highlighted those Tibetans who were killed, and those who remained missing or were in prison in the aftermath of China's crackdown on Tibetans in March 2008.

Penor Rinpoche Has Passed Away

The Supreme Head of the Nyingma Lineage and the 11th throne holder of the Palyul Tradition, His Holiness Drubwang Pema Norbu Rinpoche [Penor Rinpoche, head of the Nyingma school] was admitted into the Columbia Asia Hospital in Yeshwantpur, Bangalore on 24th March 2009 following a chronic illness.

On 27th March, 2009, many high lamas of the Nyingma Lineage as well as various other dignitaries were allowed to receive blessings from him at the intensive care unit of the hospital. As his condition deteriorated, he was carried back to the monastery at 3.30 pm the same day in an ambulance with VIP treatment, and arrived at the monastery at 6.40pm. The khenpos, tulkus and faculty members went to see him and prayed before him. After the prayer, without any sign of pain, he smiled and at 8.20pm, he passed away into parinirvana for the benefit of beings. Presently, he is in thugdam meditation state, and the parinirvana prayers are being performed by his followers worldwide.

Would You Like to Contribute an Article for This Blog

Hi I'm inviting all you little Buddha's to create an article and submit it to me via email at rdtibet@yahoo.com for consideration for publication here on Wisdom Loving Mother. REMEMBER TOPICS INCLUDE BUDDHISM, FENG SHUI, AND NATURAL HEALING ONLY. I'm thinking that there may be people out there who do not want to create and maintain their own blog - too much work, but would like to write an article or two maybe not even on a regular basis only when you are moved to write. Of course, I would allow backlinks to your website if you have one.

I got this idea from a new concept called blog our blog where people share one blog rather then each person being responsible for creating new material frequently. I like this idea because I now work full time and also commute 10-15 hours a week especially if the weather is bad. Of course, I also need time to meditate. But I also want to maintain control of the content which I choose to publish here in order to keep it sacred and show integrity.

So please contact me and lets collaborate! Post your comments or ideas or just email me. Thanks for your input in advance.
