We are pleased to know that Mr. Sonam Topgyal,
Director, Sumico Online, G-78, Lajpat Nagar-II,
New Delhi 110024, India, has decided to launch
a new website project introducing Tibetan Buddhist
teachers, their teaching activities and translation
of their teachings in seven major languages.
We welcome the project and wish Mr. Sonam Topgyal
success in his valuable endeavour.
A
website providing information on personal history
and activities of the Tibetan Buddhist teachers
in several languages would certainly be of great
value to all interested persons all over the
world. However, in view of the growing number
of cases of fraud in the name of religion or
religious teachings, the proposed website must
make sure that what it holds is more than a
mere collection of information gathered from
all kinds of sources.
It
may not be right to weigh everything in terms
of public benefits like information, income
and employment. Leading devoted persons-even
inadvertently - to the webs of fake spiritual
teachers and teachings is said to be extremely
serious and sinful. It was for this very reason
that publication and circulation of new religious
books in ancient India and Tibet were placed
under strict control.
We
recommend all organizations and individuals
who may be concerned for their valuable support
and co-operation in the successful completion
of the above project. |

The preservation and propagation of authentic
culture and religion of any kind is very important
for the human race. Among various religions
and cultures, Tibetan Buddhism is outstanding,
as it has pure leaving lineage and great depth
of reach culture, through the Blessing of the
Lord Buddha, Guru Padma Sambhava and the great
masters of the past and present.
Now
is the time that many people learn and gather
information through the Internet. This is one
of the fastest ways of spreading information,
but what is most important is that the information
is authentic and not misleading.
I

has started a web site www.tibetanlama.com,
which has the aim of introducing the teachings
and teachers of Tibetan Buddhism to the world.
I
