July 13th 2013
Hunsur, Karnataka, India, 12 July 2013 (Tenzin Desal, The Tibet Post International) - After visiting the Tibetan settlement in Bylakuppe, the spiritual leader of Tibet His Holiness the Dalai Lama commenced teaching at the Rabgyaling Tibetan settlement in Husur.
On the first day of his visit to the settlement, His Holiness conferred the Preliminary Yamataka Initiation at Dzongkar Choede Monastery whose sister monastery in Tibet is one of the oldest monasteries in Tibet.
Yamataka is what Tibetan Buddhists believe to be the wrathful manifestation of Manjushri, the Bodhisattva who embodies enlightened wisdom, the practice that to Buddhist believers serves as an antidote to ignorance.
Earlier, speaking to a group of Vietnamese-American attendees, The Dalai Lama said while alluding to the tortuous war-torn years in Vietnamese history, You have been very wonderful and very strong; you try to keep your own tradition.
We feel very close to the Tibetans because of our shared struggle, she added.
His Holiness is scheduled to teach at Gyumed Tantric University after conferring Yamataka initiation at Dzongkar Choede Monastery.
