Buddhismus -Great Collection

You know that I have some sites where I write about Buddhismus, Bon, Dzogchen ed other schools. First of all is Yungdrung Bon Blog in Italian and in English. But I post there many interesting things that do not need translation or explanations.

Now, because different persons said me about it, I opened a new site -a forum

Yungdrung Bon Forum

where I want to collect informations about the thems we all are interested in.

The beginning was only for Yungdrung Bon, but I could not avoid other schools, and there are and will be created forums for all interesting themes.

The main idea of this site is to collect interesting information to study this or that form of Dharma.
For example, I wanted to study everything possible about Sherab Chamma -and the links I found about her I collected in one insertion of that forum.

I was interested in cosmogonic theory in religions -and there is a place where I collected what I found about it.

So, this is the idea.

I wanted to ask all of you, my friends, to join that my site.
Just if you only SIGN IN will help me.
First, I need the list of partecipants because the site is on free platform and I have to demonstrate that it's interesting for others.
Than, if you would like to partecipate on collecting links and informations about buddhismus -it will be GREAT. I dream to create a very useful excellent collection about Buddhismus.

Some Words About Sherab Chamma

I promised to Bharat to write about Sherab Chamma. Finally I can say that I'm ready to speak about her.

Sherab Chamma is one -and maybe the most important- Goddess, pacific Goddess, of Bon panteon. If we think that Bön is one of the most ancient, "cosmic" religions, this fact becomes more interesting, from my point of view. Because the later religions prefere males as main Gods.

Sherab Chamma is Wisdom and Loving Mother of all Buddhas etc, sentient beings. Infact the name has these meanings. She is Golden Light, her practice heals from illnesses and donates long life. Some links you can find in my "Yungdrung Bon Forum"

Symbolism of "Great Mother":
this is the empty nature of all the phenomena of the reality, wisdom of the understanding of the absence of the individual ego, pure space, essence free from all the ignorance, absolut nature of the existance.

The wrathful aspect of Chamma is Si(d)pe Gyalmo and other, semi-wrathful aspect is the protector of Dzogchen Yeshe Walmo (read more Ya Shi Wal Mo)

Important Events In My Life

This month was rich on important evnts in my lif and I wanted to describe them here.

I visited a conference of Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, the founder of the Dongyu Gatsal Ling Nunnery in the state of Himachal Pradesh, India (for additionary information and HELP visit www.tenzinpalmo.com). The conference took place in Naples. My photo camera is unfortunatelly very capricious and I have not better photos.



To be short in this post, I'll only describe the idea hat touched me more than others.

Normally we behave as little children. Emotions as waves carry us up and down. And we go with them up and down.
The main question is not to avoid samsara -it's very difficult. And not to remain always ON the top of the wave.
The main question is to learn to to feel certainty in this uncertain world.

Second important event in my life was the ritrit with our teacher Geshe Gelek Jimpa. This ritrit was dedicated to the second part of the text "Gyalwa Chaktri" that is Dzogchen teaching of Bon. More photos and other links you can find if you visit my Yungdrung Bon Blog in Italian language
