The Grove of Wondrous Lotus Flowers: A Brief Account of the Lineage Holders of the Secret Mantrayāna Schools, Old and New, in the Snowy Land of Tibet

༄༅། །གངས་ཅན་བོད་ཀྱི་ཡུལ་དུ་བྱོན་པའི་གསང་སྔགས་གསར་རྙིང་གི་གདན་རབས་མདོར་བསྡུས་ངོ་མཚར་པདྨོའི་དགའ་ཚལ།
By Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo

Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo’s main work on the history of the Dharma is conceived as a comprehensive summary of the lineal succession of each of the schools of Tibetan Buddhism.

This remarkable religious history is a survey of all Buddhist traditions of Tibet. It typifies the pluralistic, or “Rimé” perspective Khyentse Wangpo shared with his close friend and collaborator, Jamgön Kongtrul, in that while Khyentse Wangpo’s own Sakya tradition is given the most attention, all traditions are presented as valid paths to enlightenment.

The Bodhisattva Path : The Second through Fifth Bhumis and the Paramitas of Discipline, Patience, and Meditation
By Mahamudra Master Chogyam Trungpa

Karme Choling, Barnet, Vermont, USA

Second through fifth bhumis. Stages of path develop organically. Out of the generosity of the first bhumi, the second bhumi is connected with the paramita of discipline, the source of all enrichment, the action or expression of generosity. This leads to the third bhumi, connected with the paramita of patience, which expresses the confidence of putting generosity into action. Patience as reflected in a harmony between mind and body, the action of which is virya, or "hard working", the paramita connected with the fourth bhumi. Immovability of mountain associated with fifth bhumi, "hard to accomplish," connected with the paramita of meditation.

Mahayana Uttaratantra Shastra
By Khenpo Sodargye

Mahayana Uttaratantra Shastra is one of the five great treatises given by Lord Maitreya to Asanga. It is a commentary on the teachings of the third turning of Dharma Wheel in explaining the buddha nature. Many great masters say it can be revered as a “commentary bridging the Exoteric and Vajrayana Buddhism”. It provides an important philosophical foundation for understanding the workings of the Buddhist path, particularly for Vajrayana practitioners.

The Truth Taught by All the Buddhas
By Ven. U Revata

"The Buddha of this era and the Buddhas of past eras have all taught only two kinds of truths, and nothing more than these.

‘I have taught the Dhamma that I myself have directly penetrated. All the Dhamma I taught between the day I became enlightened and the day I took final Nibbāna – all the Dhamma I have taught are true. There is nothing I have taught which is untrue.’

‘I have not taught a Dhamma which you cannot practise.

Sañjaya Belatthiputta replied, ‘All the wise will go to the Buddha. The fools will come to me. Do not worry.’

A person can poison others, but the Dhamma will never poison anyone. Depend on the Dhamma, then, and not on the person.

Mentality does not originate in the brain. In fact, there is not the slightest trace of mentality in the brain."

A Naughty Jataka

By Bhante Shravasti Dhammika

The Kacchapa Jataka is one of several rude stories in the Jataka and has, I think, never been translated into English before. Like several other risqué stories in the collection, Professor E. B. Cowell who edited the first complete English translation of the Jataka, thought it best to render it into Latin so that only scholars could read it. The purpose of the story is to highlight the Bodhisatta’s equanimity and non-retaliation. But the author or authors also uses the opportunity to poke fun at greedy brahmans who carry away more food than they can eat from various festivals and rituals, the tortoise’s shell looking something like a begging bowl. A ribald element is included to add to the fun and the tone of the story is generally light-hearted. In keeping with this ribald light-heartedness I have translated angajata as ‘dick’. The Kacchapa (Tortoise) and the Kondannas were the totems of two clans or tribes that usually did not intermarry. The monkey (makkata) in this story is a Rhesus Macaque, the most aggressive and mischievous of the several species of primates found in northern India. Interestingly, while the Bodhisatta is often depicted in Jataka stories as being reborn as one of these other types of monkeys, he is never reborn as a Macaque. One can well imagine village people roaring with laughter as a monk or learned lay person related this story to them at a religious festival or on a full-moon night. I would like to thank Anandajoti Bhikkhu for helping me with this translation.

Yamantaka Short Sadhana Practice
By Geshe Tenzin Zopa

Owing to the sacred and deeply symbolic nature of the practices associated with Initiations of the Vajra Vehicle, books on tantra are delicate matters. Without the requisite initiations and the receiving of transmissions on Commentaries, books on many aspects of tantra cannot be read by non-Initiates.

In line with this, this book “Yamantaka Short Sadhana Practice” is intended only for those who have received the Solitary Yamantaka Initiation.

The sole motivation for the publication of this book is in tandem with the great Dharma generosity of Geshe Tenzin Zopa in giving such precious guidance to initiates - to enable them to do their daily sadhana practice correctly and in a meaningful way; to bring practitioners closer to the goal of actualizing Buddhahood to benefit all beings.

The Gelug Kagyu Tradition of Mahamudra
By Dalai Lama and Dr. Alexander Berzin

Mahamudra literally means Great Seal and refers to the fact that all phenomena inevitably are stamped by the fact of wisdom and emptiness inseparable. Gampopa Sönam Rinchen (1079-1153) synthesized the Mahayana Kadam teachings with the tantric teachings he received from Milarepa.

May We Leave This Legacy With You
By Bhikkhu Buddhadasa

“I have no inheritance to leave behind for Buddhist friends, my comrades in birth, aging, illness, and death, except for what is spelled out in the following statements. My hope is that for however long these legacies are passed along the activity of Suan Mokkhabalarama will continue and ‘Buddhadasa’ will remain in that place for that long. Please receive these legacies in your contemplation from this very moment which will create ease in passing them further along. May you accept them as a Dhamma inheritance for all Dhamma Comrades who have offered body and life in service to the Buddha’s Dispensation for the benefit of human beings throughout the world without the least personal consideration.”

The Bodhisattva Path : The Two Types of Confidence and the Bodhisattva Vow
By Mahamudra Master Chogyam Trungpa

Karme Choling, Barnet, Vermont, USA


Commitment to bodhisattva path based on two types of confidence: inspiration and application. Inspiration as awareness of buddha nature; application as the taking of the bodhisattva and devoting oneself to all sentient beings. Arises from view "that there is no definite, solid individuality as myself to be saved." "[W]orking with other people is the occupation, but it is not increasing yourself." The bodhisattva views the whole environment as being friendly.
