The Life of Shabkar\_ The Autobiography of a Tibetan Yogin Shabkar Tsogdruk Rangdrol, Matthieu Ricard, Padmakara Translation Group, His Holiness the Dalai Lama Snow Lion Publications, Incorporated, 2001, 2001

<p>Regarded by many as the greatest yogi after Milarepa to gain enlightenment in one lifetime...a source of inspiration to Buddhist practitioners and general readers alike.--The Dalai Lama</p> <h3>Library Journal</h3> <p>Shabkar (1781-1851) was a Tibetan master who, according to the introduction by the Dalai Lama, is second only to the sage Milarepa in the regard in which he is held at all levels of Tibetan society. His reputation rests on a clear and sometimes playful style of presentation--amply illustrated, alternating prose with verse--in which he covers all aspects of spiritual practice. Shabkar also transcends the sectarian snares of the Tibetan tradition, incorporating aspects of all the teachings with no apparent prejudices. The translation group, headed by Ricard (The Monk and the Philosopher), has done a meticulous job, including the copious accompanying textual apparatus. This thorough, well-conceived edition of an important text will be welcomed by scholars and serious practitioners of Buddhism. For the average reader, however, it will be rough going, as the style tends to be repetitious and sounds a bit stilted to modern Western ears. Also, it is an account of a life that--while extraordinary in a spiritual sense--was largely uneventful. Essential for larger academic collections with an interest in Buddhism, it should be considered by collections serving serious students and practitioners of Buddhism.--Mark Woodhouse, Elmira Coll.

Modern Tibetan Literature and Social Change Hartley, Lauran R. (editor);Schiaffini-Vedani, Patricia (editor) Duke University Press Books, 2008 jul 16

"Modern Tibetan Literature and Social Change" is the first systematic and detailed overview of modern Tibetan literature, which has burgeoned only in the last thirty years. This comprehensive collection brings together fourteen pioneering scholars in the nascent field of Tibetan literary studies, including authors who are active in the Tibetan literary world itself. These scholars examine the literary output of Tibetan authors writing in Tibetan, Chinese, and English, both in Tibet and the Tibetan diaspora. The contributors explore the circumstances that led to the development of modern Tibetan literature, its continuities and breaks with classical Tibetan literary forms, and the ways that writers use forms such as magical realism, satire, and humor to negotiate literary freedom within the PRC.They provide crucial information about Tibetan writers' lives in China and abroad, the social and political contexts in which they write, and the literary-critical merits of their oeuvres. Along with deep social, cultural, and political analysis, this wealth of information clarifies the complex circumstances under which Tibetan writers negotiate the realities they face in the PRC and in the diaspora. The contributors consider not only poetry, short stories, and novels but also other forms of cultural production - such as literary magazines, films, and Web sites - that provide a public forum in the Tibetan areas of the PRC, where censorship and restrictions on public gatherings remain the norm. "Modern Tibetan Literature and Social Change" includes a previously unavailable list of modern Tibetan works translated into Western languages and a comprehensive English-language index of names, subjects, and terms

Esoteric Buddhism at Dunhuang : Rites and Teachings for This Life and Beyond Matthew T. Kapstein; Sam van Schaik Koninklijke Brill N.V., Brill Academic Publishers, Leiden, 2010

Esoteric Buddhism in late first millennium Tibet and China is nowhere in evidence so clearly as in materials from Dunhuang. In the original contributions presented here, Robert Mayer and Cathy Cantwell examine the consecrations of the wrathful divinity Vajrakīlaya, while Sam van Schaik considers approaches to the vows of tantric adepts. Philosophical interpretations of Mahāyoga inform Kammie Takahashi's study of the ‘Questions of Vajrasattva'. The background for later Tibetan tantric mortuary rites are examined in chapters by Yoshiro Imaeda and Matthew Kapstein. In the closing chapter, Katherine Tsiang investigates early printing in relation to esoteric dhāraṇīs, and their role as amulets accompanying the deceased. The collection is an important advance in our understanding of the historical development of Buddhist tantra.

Contributions to the cultural history of early Tibet / edited by Matthew T. Kapstein, Brandon Dotson. edited by Matthew T. Kapstein, Brandon Dotson Brill, 2007., Brill's Tibetan studies library -- v. 14, Leiden, Boston, Netherlands, 2007

The study of the rise and institutions of the Tibetan empire of the seventh to ninth centuries, and of the continuing development of Tibetan civilization during the obscure period that followed, have aroused growing interest among scholars of Inner Asia in recent decades. The six contributions presented here represent refinements in substance and method characterizing current work in this area. A chapter by Brandon Dotson provides a new perspective on law and divination under the empire, while the post-imperial international relations of the Tsong kha kingdom are analyzed by Bianca Horlemann. In “The History of the Cycle of Birth and Death”, Yoshiro Imaeda's investigation of a Dunhuang narrative appears in a revised edition, in English for the first time. The problem of oral transmission in relation to the Tibetan Dunhuang texts is then taken up in the contribution of Sam van Schaik. In the final section, Matthew Kapstein and Carmen Meinert consider aspects of Chinese Buddhism in their relation to religious developments in Tibet.

lgli/Matthew T. Kapstein - Les Tibétains (2015, Les Belles Lettres).epub

Les Tibétains Kapstein, Associate Professor in the Department of South Asian Languages and Civilizations Matthew T Les Belles Lettres, Sep 14, 2015

Dans le passé, le Tibet vécut isolé du reste du monde pour des raisons qui tiennent essentiellement à sa situation géographique. Il s'ensuivit qu’en plus d’avoir à baigner dans une sorte de mystère, notre pays, notre peuple et notre culture pâtirent également d’être les victimes d’une profonde méconnaissance. Plus récemment, l’intérêt grandissant suscité par le Tibet s’accompagna d’une surprenante multiplication des études académiques dont il devint l’objet, avec toutefois la particularité que celles-ci étaient le plus souvent limitées à des domaines hautement spécialisés. À l’inverse, ce que Matthew Kapstein nous livre ici, au fil d’un ouvrage copieux, est le fruit d’une investigation panoramique – les Tibétains et leur civilisation – menée dans une perspective historique elle-même d’une très grande ampleur. L’expertise et la clarté qu’a su apporter l’auteur à son écrit résultent d’une longue amitié tissée avec le Pays des neiges et son peuple dont il est un observateur attentif. Sa Sainteté le Dalaï-lama Éminent spécialiste du bouddhisme, tibétologue et indianiste, Matthew T. Kapstein est directeur d’études au sein de la Section des sciences religieuses de l’École pratique des hautes études de Paris et Numata Visiting Professor à l’université de Chicago. Il dirige également depuis 2009 l’équipe Tibet, Bhoutan et aires culturelles tibétaines du Centre de recherche sur les civilisations de l’Asie orientale. Il est notamment l’auteur de Reason’s Traces : Identity and Interpretation in Indian and Tibetan Buddhist Thought (2001) et Buddhism Between Tibet and China (2009).
