The Meaning Of OM MANI PADME HUM
H.H. the 14th Dalai Lama
It is very good to recite the mantra OM MANI PADME HUM, but while you are doing it, you should be thinking on its meaning, for the meaning of the six syllables is great and vast. The first, OM is composed of three letters, A, U, M. These symbolise the practitioner’s impure body, speech and mind; they also symbolise the pure exalted body, speech and mind of a Buddha.

Mahamudra Course In Israel, December 2008
Mahamudra (Great Seal) course on the Dead Sea, Israel, December 2008
The Great Seal teachings are Buddhism’s highest. They are aimed at the radiant and boundless space of our mind and expose what is beyond the mistaken separation between experiencer, experienced object and the experience itself. Discovering mind’s nature gives us tremendous freedom, frees us from fear and fills us with joy. The wish to share this state of high bliss is the essence of compassion and is a natural outcome of overcoming the separation between I and other.
The world we live in (yes yes, even our Middle East) turns at once into a game, into visible and hidden expressions of deep wisdoms, into a field fertile with possibilities, and into an arena for performing beneficial activities. Lama Ole Nydhal, like his predecessors in the Karma Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, shares with us this liberated state of mind and invites us to partake in the happiest adventure of all. The course will take place in Masada between the 20th and 23th of December.
During the course Lama Ole will teach Diamond Way meditations, answer questions, and present a fresh and modern interpretation of the “Great Seal” text, originally composed by the 3rd Karmapa around 700 years ago in Tibet.

Democracy by royal decree in Bhutan
By Henry Chu, Los Angeles Times
The tiny Himalayan kingdom moves, albeit reluctantly, toward people power under monarch Jigme Singye Wangchuck, who prefers evolution rather than revolution.
On Monday, Bhutan is set to become the world's newest democracy, with the first general elections in the history of this isolated Buddhist kingdom. At the heart of this brave new world lies a paradox: It is people power by royal decree. The Bhutanese are choosing their leaders because, essentially, they were told to by their king.

Daughter of Tibet's Panchen Lama calls protest in Lhasa ugly
(Reuters) - The daughter of Tibet's late 10th Panchen Lama on Monday invoked her

and left dozens dead.
Yabshi Pan Rinzinwangmo is the only child of the late 10th Panchen
Lama, the most senior religious figure in Tibetan Buddhism after the
Dalai Lama who fled to India in 1959 after an abortive uprising.
