The FPMT is an organization devoted to preserving and spreading Mahayana Buddhism worldwide by creating opportunities to listen, reflect, meditate, practice and actualize the unmistaken teachings of the Buddha and based on that experience spreading the Dharma to sentient beings.

FPMT News Around the World
Preparation for His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s visit to Maitripa College and FPMT International Office are in full swing. With His Holiness arriving in Oregon in two weeks, staff and volunteers are bustling around the Southeast Portland building that is shared by Mandala, International Office, and Maitripa College. This week’s activities span from hanging new prayer flags to finalizing some of the details of three days of events; from talking to reporters to folding 10,000 khatas; and from applying fresh paint to sewing colorful banners for all the windows.
Carl Jensen, office manager for International Office, describes the scene in the building as calm. “People have settled into their various roles for the preparations and are hitting their stride. They’re doing amazing work,” Carl said.
May 9-11, His Holiness participates in an Environmental Summit hosted by Maitripa College. His Holiness will be joined by interfaith community leaders, noted environmentalists and elected officials. Maitripa College is affiliated with FPMT and is the only Buddhist College in the Northwestern United States.
Mandala magazine recently talked with Yangsi Rinpoche, president of Maitripa College, about the event. Rinpoche is pleased with how the arrangements are coming together. Mandala will offer a first-hand coverage of the events with His Holiness on our blog and in our next issue, which will include Yangsi Rinpoche’s thoughts on why it is important to consider the environment.
If you’d like to receive the next issue of Mandala magazine, become a Friend of FPMT. Mandala is a benefit of the Friends of FPMT program, which supports the work of FPMT International Office, dedicated to supporting the fulfillment of all the wishes of Lama Zopa Rinpoche and His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

His Holiness Visits Italy and Switzerland
FPMT News Around the World
His Holiness the Dalai Lama arrived in Europe last week for a two-week tour. On April 11, His Holiness gave a public talk called “Happiness in a Troubled World” in Trento, located in Northern Italy. Senior FPMT student Fabrizio Pallotti served as an interpreter for His Holiness during the visit in Italy and many teachers and students from FPMT Italian centers were in attendance. Photographer Sirianni, another Italian senior student and regular Mandala contributor, shared photos of the Trento event on his Facebook page.
While in Trento, His Holiness also addressed the local government, saying:
“I prefer to begin by greeting you as my brothers and sisters. Why? Because so many of the problems we face today are due to our focusing on secondary differences between us, while neglecting the basic oneness of humanity. As human beings we are all the same mentally, physically and emotionally, and we need to increase our awareness of this.”
Over the weekend, His Holiness was in Fribourg, Switzerland, April 13-14 for public events co-organized by Gendun Drupa Centre, a Swiss FPMT center since 2006. During the two days, His Holiness offered commentary on Atisha’s “Lamp for the Path to Enlightenment,” gave a White Tara empowerment and spoke on “Ethics Beyond Religion.” His Holiness speaks in Lausanne on Monday, April 15, and Bern on Tuesday, April 16.
Later in the week, His Holiness travels to the United Kingdom where he visits Derry/Londonderry in Northern Ireland for events organized by Children in the Crossfire and then travels to Cambridge to give a talk at the Global Scholars Symposium discussing Nonviolence for Conflict Resolution.

Remembering Lama Lhundrup
FPMT News Around the World
“The main method to achieve enlightenment is bodhichitta, the altruistic aspiration towards enlightenment generated out of the mind of compassion,” Khensur Rinpoche Lama Lhundrup, former abbot of Kopan Monastery, taught on the 18 root bodhisattva vows in 1987. “Bodhichitta, the altruistic mind seeking solely the welfare of others, needs to be enhanced limitlessly. It is not enough just to habituate our mind, and generate or cultivate the altruistic mind in our meditation – besides generating the altruistic mind, we also need to actually venture into the deeds of such a mind.”
In May 2013, Kopan Monastery hosts a special program in conjunction with the consecration of the recently completed memorial stupa for Khensur Rinpoche Lama Lhundrup, who passed away in September 2011. Lama Zopa Rinpoche will perform the opening ceremony of the stupa on May 3. The program is scheduled to run May 1-5 at Kopan Monastery. Contact Kopan Monastery for booking information during the stupa consecration events.
You can read Lama Lhundrup’s short teaching on the 18 bodhisattva vows, given during the twentieth Kopan Course in December 1987, on the Lama Yeshe Wisdom Archive.

FPMT News Around the World
In May 2013, His Holiness the Dalai Lama will participate in an Environmental Summit hosted by Maitripa College in Portland, Oregon, U.S. His Holiness will be joined in panel discussions by religious leaders and politicians to talk about spirituality and the environment and universal responsibility.
His Holiness the Dalai Lama has been advocating publicly for the environment for several decades. In 2006, Mandala reported on the impending climate crisis, a topic that both His Holiness and Lama Zopa Rinpoche have addressed. In 1988, in a speech entitled “Humanity and Ecology,” His Holiness said:
“Peace and the survival of life on earth as we know it are threatened by human activities that lack a commitment to humanitarian values. Destruction of nature and natural resources results from ignorance, greed, and lack of respect for the earth’s living things. … Just as we should cultivate gentle and peaceful relations with our fellow human beings, we should also extend that same kind of attitude toward the natural environment. Morally speaking, we should be concerned for our whole environment. … This, however, is not just a question of morality or ethics, but a question of our own survival. … We must now help people to understand the need for environmental protection. We must teach people to understand the need for environmental protection. We must teach people that conservation directly aids our survival.”
In the article “What Does Al Gore Know that Everyone Should Know?” Mandala shared Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s perspective on the environment. When Rinpoche saw the movie An Inconvenient Truth, Rinpoche commented that former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, who helped create the movie, knows something everyone should know: We are in an environmental decline of global proportions … Action must be taken. Rinpoche said:
What Al Gore really wishes is for every sentient being, regardless of religion or nationality, including creatures of the land and sea, all to be free of the impure substances, pollution, and the atomic bomb that are harmful to all of us and the environment. … This includes beings such as nagas and worldly gods who are also involved in the elements, and who are harmed and even destroyed due to these man-made pollutions, harmful chemicals, and other things that are damaging the earth and air.
People in business who think only of personal profit without consideration for others and the environment are causing great danger to all of us – the country we live in and this whole world.
Al Gore is making us aware of so many things that harm us and our environment. Your happiness depends on others, and others’ happiness depends on you. We all have to live in this world, so we need to be harmonious and happy in a healthy way. No matter who you are or where you are, we all have a responsibility to protect this world.
Maitripa College is the first Buddhist college in the Pacific Northwest and is affiliated with FPMT. Yangsi Rinpoche, Maitripa’s founder and president, extended the invitation to His Holiness to come to Portland and has been closely involved with the development of the summit. Mandala will offer ongoing coverage of the summit and His Holiness’ visit to Portland.

Choe Khor Sum Ling Studies Bodhisattva Attitude
FPMT News Around the World
Choe Khor Sum Ling, FPMT’s study group in Bangalore, India, had an intensive three-day retreat led by Ven. Tenzin Namjong on the topic “How to Transform Your Mind.” The “city retreat” attracted many new students to the active South Indian study group. In preparation for this retreat, Ven. Namjong, who is an FPMT registered teacher and resident of Sera IMI House, encouraged students to read His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s commentary on the Eight Verses of Mind Training and Bodhisattva Attitude: How to Dedicate Your Life to Others by Lama Zopa Rinpoche.
Choe Khor Sum Ling student Dee Shekhar writes:
On each of the three days of retreat, Ven. Namjong led us through the two kinds of meditation and also the visualization practice of the Avalokiteshvara. He emphasized the need to read and practice the Eight Verses of Mind Training. The retreat also had discussions between Ven. Namjong and students about Buddhism, focusing on the meaning of the Eight Verses. Together, we also recited prayers and practices from the FPMT Prayer Book and read selections from Bodhisattva Attitude.
The format of the retreat worked well, as it led all participants to read and contemplate the teaching in an immersive and intensive manner. On the last day, students also learned tong-len practice and dedicated for the benefit of all sentient beings.

Shedrup Zungdel Inspired by Weekend Teaching with Ven. Rita

Shedrup Zungdel, an FPMT study group in Belgium, welcomed FPMT registered teacher Ven. Rita Riniker in February. Ven. Rita taught on “The Four Immeasurables,” calling them “the immune system for our consciousness.”

Some of the audience remarked on how pleased they were with Ven. Rita’s way of teaching, commenting: “She is so grounded;” “She speaks out of her experience;” “She speaks in a suitable way for me;” and “I can understand; it’s not too high for me.” Others felt encouraged and inspired to continue their efforts in practicing loving kindness and compassion.
