Long Life Initiation Ceremony [Tibetan: Tsewang]
The Eight Verses of Training the Mind Teaching [Tibetan: Lojong Tsig Gye-ma]

On Sunday October 24, 2010 the following will take place at the Tibetan Canadian Cultural Centre:

Long Life Empowerment – Tsewang
Long Life Ceremony – Tenshug (Jointly sponsored by CTAO & Tsengdok Monastery, Vancouver)
Mind Training Teaching – Lojong

His Holiness will offer a Long Life Empowerment ~ Tsewang. An empowerment creates the necessary conditions for the development in us of the same qualities as the Buddha. This initiation is open to all, and can also be received by non-Buddhists as a blessing.

The Long Life Ceremony or the practice of Tenshug has existed for a long time in the Buddhist tradition. It consists of a religious offering destined to request a spiritual Master to live for a long time, so that he can work for the welfare of all beings as long as possible. This ceremony realized by the Tibetan community of Ontario and Tsengdok Monastery, Vancouver are a great occasion to pray for the long live of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and at the same time are a unique opportunity for each practitioner to strengthen their connection with His Holiness. The Tibetans who participate in the Tenshug aspire to develop a pure motivation and compromise, reciting as many long life prayers as possible for His Holiness the Dalai Lama. It is a ceremony open to everyone.

The Long Life ceremony – Tenshug for His Holiness the Dalai Lama is jointly sponsored by the Canadian Tibetan Association of Ontario and Tsengdok Monastery, Vancouver.

Lojong - Mind Training Teaching

The Eight Verses of Training the Mind [Tibetan: Lo-jong Tsig Gye-ma], a classic text by Kadam Geshe Langri Thangpa, is a topic that His Holiness frequently chooses to teach.

Lojong (often translated into English as Mind Training) is a practice in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition based on the Eight Verses formulated in Tibet by Geshe Langri Thangpa. Practitioners undertake to connect with the world in an unconditionally positive way, and also to take full responsibility for their experience of it. The practice involves redefining, reconceptualizing and reprogramming one’s intent and way of thinking. The practice involves refining and purifying one’s motivations and attitudes – hence “Mind Training”.

It is recommended to read the text before taking the teaching.

In today’s modern world, science and technology play vital roles in bringing unprecedented material comfort to the lives of human beings. However, the basic human problems of suffering, fear and tension still remain and form part of our daily lives. We are still constantly confronted with devastating news such as violence, crime, wars and natural disasters. Thus, it is only logical to try to strike a balance between material developments on the one hand and the development of spiritual, human values on the other hand. In order to bring about this great adjustment, we need to revive our humanitarian values. His Holiness will share his personal outlook on how we may bring about peace not only on a personal level but at the community and world wide level.

Event Information

“Compassion and forgiveness, these are the real ultimate sources of power for peace and success in life. We need to use differences in a positive way. Try to get energy from different views, from different opinions. Make dialogue – this is the proper way to solve problems. Only then will genuine peace between nations come – from mutual respect not from weapons or force.”

His Holiness has been a champion of World Peace for over 50 years and on this day 20 years ago, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his non-violent, middle way approach to finding a solution to the situation in Tibet.

Today His Holiness will speak of the responsibility we all have for World Peace. By applying wisdom and compassion, we have the ability to resolve firstly our own differences with offers and then work together to create peace and harmony in our own community and the greater world.
