| The
Arjia Lobsang Thubten Rinpoche,
Abbott of the Kumbum Monastery, one of six great centers of Buddhism
in Tibet, is considered the reincarnation of the father ("Arjia")
of Je Tsong Khapa, the founder of the Gelukpa ("Yellow Hat")
Sect of Tibetan Buddhism. The Rinpoche is one of the most important
religious leaders to leave Tibet since the Dalai Lama fled into
exile in 1959. Recognized at the age of 10 by the Panchen Rinpoche
and enthroned in 1952, the Arjia Rinpoche has worked with His
Holiness the Dalai Lama and the late Panchen Lama. As Abbott
of Kumbum Monastery, he established a new order of Buddhist monks,
and created new village schools and charitable foundations such
as the Kumbum Red Cross to provide disaster relief throughout
Tibet. In 1998, due to political and religious pressures, Rinpoche
left China to settle in the United States, where he has established
the Tibetan Center for Compassion and Wisdom in Mill Valley,
California. |
