TIBETAN CULTURAL INSTITUTE OF ARKANSAS ORGANIZATIONAL MEETING

Projects_civic_05_01THE TIBETAN CULTURAL INSTITUTE OF ARKANSAS will hold its first organizational meeting on Wednesday March 12 at 6:00 p.m. at the Fayetteville Public Library.  The meeting will be held on the first floor in the Willard and Pat Walker Community Room.  Everyone--students, faculty, citizens--is invited to be a part of our organization and to contribute to its vision for the future.

We need your input and your ideas as we formulate ways for our Institute to serve the growing community who have shown a substantial interest in what Geshe la and Rinzin la have to offer us.  Because many of you have already helped us immeasurably, we are able now to envision a future with more confidence and clarity than we had ever thought possible. 

With a little planning, a bit of co-operation, and a degree of commitment from all of us, I believe that we can lay the groundwork for an enduring Institute here in Northwest Arkansas.

I hope to see you on Wednesday, March 12, 6:00 p.m., Fayetteville Public Library.  For directions, click here.

Who We Are, What We Do, and Where We Do It

  • We are a diverse group of individuals of all ages from all backgrounds who simply have an interest in what Geshe Dorjee and Rinzin Dorjee have to teach us. We meet every Sunday at Dramis Hardwood Floors (see directions below) at 11:00 a.m. for meditation, instruction, and discussion. Typically, we are finished betweeen 12:30 and 1:00 p.m. Some of us are Buddhists, some of us are not, and all are welcome. You may bring a cushion if you have one, but we provide cushions for those who do not.

What We're Reading

  • The Dalai Lama: The Meaning of Life

    The Dalai Lama: The Meaning of Life
    The book that we're currently reading (having begun January 2008), THE MEANING OF LIFE, by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, addresses the 12 links of dependent origination and other issues.

  • Ven Lobsang Gyatso: The Four Noble Truths

    Ven Lobsang Gyatso: The Four Noble Truths
    The first book we read together, and a detailed--at times, overly detailed--treatment of the founding platform of all Buddhist philosophy and practice.

  • The Dalai Lama: Stages of Meditation

    The Dalai Lama: Stages of Meditation
    The book we finished, January 2008. It's actually the second part of a three-part work by Kamalashila, an Indian monk and scholar from the 8th century. The Dalai Lama has supplied copious commentary to Kamalashila's translated text.
