The teaching on how to make every moment and every action of one’s life meaningful, joyful and more imbued with wisdom is based on ‘The Jewel Garland of Bodhisattva’. ‘Bodhisattva-manyavali’ is a poem written by Atisha Sri Dipamkara-jnana, one of the greatest pandits of the ancient Nalanda University. The poem is an essential instruction on how to achieve the perfection of our own and others’ wellbeing by making simple yet profound changes in the way we think and see things around us.
The teaching will be given by Venerable Khangser Rinpoche, a renowned teacher from Sera Jey Monastic University. At the young age of 35 he is one of the foremost Buddhist scholars and practitioners of our time.

The UID (Unique Identity) project is one of the most ambitious projects of the UPA government. The move to set up the UID Authority of India (UIDAI), under the aegis of the Planning Commission, is aimed at providing a unique identity to the targeted population of the flagship schemes to ensure that the benefits reach them. The unique identification number would ensure that any lacuna in these schemes is removed so that the benefits do not reach those they are not meant for.
Karnataka has reportedly been chosen as the pilot state to implement the project. The National Authority for Unique Identity (NAUI), set up under the Planning Commission, has asked the state to implement the programme on a small scale to co-ordinate data on people, from different agencies.
Bangalore is set to become a hub of activities for the Unique Identification Authority of India as Karnataka has been chosen as one of the states where the project, led by Infosys co-founder Mr. Nandan Nilekani, will be implemented first.
We Invite you to a half day workshop on “Unique Identification Number Project (UID)and the Indian Citizen” on Sunday the 20th June, 2010 at Ecumenical Christian Centre, Whitefield, Bangalore, from 2:30 to 5:00pm.

6.00 PM – BLESSINGS: THE TSOKNGYI NANGCHEN NUNS OF TIBET, Victress Hitchcock, 104’| Tibetan |English subtitle
This is the story of an extraordinary journey—a unique meeting of east and west, an homage to the heartfelt dedication of the Tsoknyi Nangchen nuns of Tibet and an inspiration to human beings everywhere seeking a spiritual path through the challenges of 21st-century life.
8.00 PM – The ORACLE, David Cherniack, 52’|English |Tibetan |English subtitle
Can spirits enter this world by taking possession of a human body?
Cloaked in secrecy for almost 400 years, the State Oracle of Tibet, or Nechung, has been a strange and mystical aspect of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. The physical vehicle of the ancient spirit called Dorje Drakden, which has inhabited a succession of thirteen human mediums, advises the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan Government in Exile on matters of public and religious policy. To witness the eerie spectacle of the medium entering a trance state is to confront profound questions about the very nature of human consciousness.
With permission from the Dalai Lama that had never been granted before, THE ORACLE explores this ancient practice of consulting spirits.
9.00 PM – LIGHT AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD, National Geographic Production, 47’|English |Tibetan |English subtitle
National Geographic documentary in which Wade Davis, accompanied by Matthieu Ricard, examines Buddhist practice in the Himalayas.There’s something about the inherent tolerance of Buddhism that is inherently attractive. It’s totally non-judgmental. There’s no notion of sin, there’s no notion of good and evil, there’s only ignorance and suffering. And this is the most important thing, it places all emphasis on compassion; you do not embrace negativity.
Buddhism asks the fundamental question: What is life and what is the point of existence?
Wade Davis goes on an anthropological and spiritual journey into the Himalayas of Nepal to learn the deepest lesson of Buddhist practice.

Lost in time, the Himalayan Kingdom of Mustang is one of the last sanctuaries of authentic Tibetan Buddhist culture. But, long isolated by geography and politics, the people struggle to survive and the center of their culture, the fifteenth century monasteries and the art within are dangerously close to collapse. Mustang – Journey of Transformation, tells the compelling story of the efforts to rescue this ancient place from the brink of extinction and help spark a cultural renaissance. Storytellers include His Holiness the Dalai Lama; the King of Mustang; and Luigi Fieni, the chief art restorer.
7.20 PM – THE BLUE SCARF, Gilles Blaize, 52’|English |Mongolian |English subtitle

May 7, 2010, Friday
6.00 PM – HISTORY OF MOMOS, Tenzin Tsetan Chokla, 10’|Tibetan | English subtitle
A Tibetan man living alone in Seoul, Korea remembers his real home far away in the Himalayas. With no friends and family around in this new city, food connects him to his past and his people.
6.15 PM – FOLLOWING KUNSEL: SAVING OUR PAST FOR THE FUTURE, Thupten N. Chakrishar, 30’|Tibetan | English subtitle
For the last 50 years, the Tibetan Culture has been subjected to systematic destruction inside Chinese occupied Tibet as Tibetans are reduced to minorities in their own land.
Following Kunsel: saving our past for the future tells the story of Tibetans in exile who struggle hard, against all odds, to preserve their ancient and endangered culture. The story revolves around Tenzin Kunsel, an 11 years old popular Tibetan singer in New York City, her experience, education and feelings.
We follow her through her early years, the performances and we join Kunsel in her journey as she reaches for her ultimate dream.

4.30 PM – MELTDOWN IN TIBET, Michael Buckley, 40’|English | English subtitle
“The film draws its power and immediacy from the fact that Michael actually rafted down the rivers he discusses, and that he captured on film the spectacular and overwhelming quality of these greatest of Asian waterways. That he secretly filmed some of the very dams the Chinese were building on these rivers, provides the documentary the extra seal of authenticity, as it were. I may be getting a little picky here but the film seems to slow down a bit when it moves away from the rivers and goes into a general discussion on the Chinese presence in Tibet, and on Tibetan Buddhism and conservation. Nonetheless, Meltdown in Tibet is a very dramatic, informative and even entertaining film that strikes a powerful blow for the environmental and Free Tibet cause. Absolutely a must-see for Tibetans, supporters and friends” —Jamyang Norbu
5.20 PM – GYALYUM CHENMO: THE GREAT MOTHER, Rosemary Rawcliffe, 57’|Tibetan | English subtitle
Gyalyum Chemo and The Great Mother Archetype is the compelling life story of Dekyi Tsering, the mother of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. The Tibetan people call her “Gyalyum Chemo” or “Great Mother.” During the course of her extraordinary life, she gave birth to sixteen children, seven who survived, two of whom were recognized as incarnate lamas, and one who has been recognized by millions around the globe as one of the world’s leading ambassadors for peace.
6.20 PM – WOMEN OF TIBET: A QUIET REVOLUTION, Rosemary Rawcliffe, 57’|Tibetan | English subtitle
A Quiet Revolution is a celebration of the human spirit. For the first time on film, three generations of Tibet’s most dynamic and articulate women come together to share the wisdom that allows them to bridge their ancient and contemporary worlds, the sacred and the secular.
This is the account of women who have lost everything and then survived the perilous escape from Tibet across the high Himalayas. From their principal refuge in Dharamsala, India, to small settlements scattered across the globe, these women have become the architects and builders of the new Tibet. Their goal is singular–to impart to Tibetan children the strength and knowledge of their cultural heritage and spiritual wisdom.
