Lama Tsenjun Rimpoche was

public talk on the culture of
Tibet. The Lama is the recently
retired senior spiritual teacher of
the Kagyur Kunkhyab Churing
(Dharma Centre) in Vancouver.

In celebration of the Interna-
tional Year of Tibet, the Terrace
and District Multicultural Asso-
ciation, the Terrace and District
Teachers’ Association and
Northwest Development Educa-
tion sponsored Lama Rimpoche’s
presentations.

Lama Rimpoche was forced to
leave Tibet in 1958 because of
the Chinese invasion of the
country and the aftermath of
communist dominance, China

- and Tibet had both practised the
Buddhist philosophy until that |

time. He followed his teacher
Kalu Rimpoche to Buton, India,
where he worked for a number
of years. Lama Rimpoche

explains that Buddhism teaches
and advocates the most positive

CITY OF TERRACE

in Terrace recently to give a_

karma (cause and effect) which

" brings ultimate happiness. It is
"a process of training, learning

and experience through natural
methods to understanding."

To become a lama or teacher
of the Buddhist philosophy,
Lama Rimpoche says, the
requirements are commitment,
celibacy, hard work and three
years and three months of medi-
tation and study with other Bud-
dhist followers. He notes proud-
ly that Saltspring Island houses
a centre for this purpose. The
most recent group began their
meditation there on Nov. 7.

Lama Rimpoche did his three
years, three months meditation
in India and commenced his role
as a lama when he came to
Vancouver in 1971 to establish
the Dharma Centre.

Lama Rimpoche shared his
practical philosophy with recep-
tive audiences at Skeena school
and at a luncheon provided by
the Terrace and District
Multicultural Association. Re-

Lama explained, “Eastern

children are trained very strictly

from a very carly age. The
mother is the teacher. If you

‘don’t train them when. they're

small, it’s impossible when
they’re big. They have to be
taught the difference between
right and wrong."

organizations put together a
display on Tibet at the Terrace
Public Library. The display
included artifacts from Tibet,
