Tento institut byl založen v roce 1977 Ctihodným Geše Rabtenem ve švýcarském Le Mont Pelerin nad Ženevským jezerem a spolu s dalšími centry v Rakousku, Německu, Francii a Maďarsku tvoří síť respektovaných studijních center.

Liberecké centrum vzniklo s cílem umožnit a zpřístupnit studium autentických pramenů tibetské buddhistické tradice se všemi jejími aspekty a přispět tak k jejímu zachování. Navazuje na tradici linie velkých duchovních Mistrů minulosti jako byli Buddha Šakjamuni, Nágardžuna, Asanga, Atiša a Dže Congkhapa až po Mistry naší doby jako Kjabdže Tričhang Dordžečhang a Geše Rabten Rinpočhe.

Background: Rajasthali Bouddha Shishu Sadan (R.B.S.S.) Buddhist Welfare Orphanage is a charity, non-profit child development organization. In 1990, aimed to helping the helpless, a Noble Monk namely Ven. Shanta Joti Mahathero, with some well-wisher was founded to this organization and the name was given “Rajasthali Bouddha Shishu Sadan (R.B.S.S.) Buddhist Welfare Orphanage Firstly, this organization was initiated only with 5 orphans, but presently more than 60 orphans and deprived children are getting opportunities from this organization. 

The organization is primarily committed to educate the children who remain uncared for, and deprived of opportunities of education, particularly in the tribal/indigenous families of Chittagong Hill Tracts, Bangladesh. Since its inception, the (RBSS) organization has relentlessly educated desolate children and to educate them with true human values for a better future.

 Rajasthali Bouddha Shishu Sadan (R.B.S.S.) Buddhist Welfare Orphanage is a charity non-profit child development organization. (A child care home) There is a fundraising initiative in Perth, W.A. supported by the Buddhist Society of W.A. that helps to raise money to run a small orphanage named Rajasthali Bouddha Shishu Sadan (R.B.S.S.). The orphanage is located in the Rajasthali,Rangamati Hill Tracts outside Chittagong in Bangladesh and is currently 6O children from various tribal groups in the region. The orphanage are provides all necessary accommodation, food,clothing and medicinal supplies for the children as well as facilitating their education and spiritual development.

The orphanage began in 1990 on the impetus of kindness generated by both lay and monastic Bikkhu sangha within a particularly impoverished area of the Rangamati Hill tracts. Here they were finding the incidence of parentless children and children considered to be living in hard-core poverty’ to be very high. The orphanage thus began as a volunteer- driven initiative, a theme which still continues circa 19 years later, the Orphanage has been very pro-active in seeking help for their project and thus 1997 they wrote a letter to the Buddhist society of W.A seeking assistance as a fellow Buddhist organization. The Buddhist Society decided to support the project but not to run it. Thus its responsibility was taken up by Ms. Judi Rushforth who facilitated and developed the link for 6 years until 2003, when it was handed on to Mr. Scott Andrews from Australia. Rajasthali Bouddha Shishu Sadan (R.B.S.S.) Buddhist Welfare Orphanage\\\'s mission is to help children living in dire poverty. Through the generosity of contributors, we provide needy children with a variety of programs and services to meet their basic needs and enhance their self-esteem; raise their physical and educational levels in a meaningful, lasting way. Since 1990, Rajasthali Bouddha Shishu Sadan (R.B.S.S.) Buddhist Welfare Orphanage has been providing assistance to children and families struggling in terrible poverty. With the help of above who have been supporting to RBSS, we are continuing to help the poor children and growing up healthy and educationOrganization name:  Rajasthali Bouddha Shishu Sadan (R.B.S.S.)

Notes and Events:

Rime is the principals of a non sectarian approach to Tibetan Buddhism, the not for profit trust actively invites teachers and organises events at a minimal cost for the benefit of the community. 

Raupo Bay Retreat is situated on a secluded bay with plenty of space in Banks Penninsula, it is available for any organisation to use for group retreats or come for a visit or stay for a solo retreat.

We meet twice a month on special practice days at the Nyingma Buddhist centre for Tsok (Tibetan) or Gana Chakra Puja (Sanskrit) - a Circle Gathering Feast offering. Dates are according to powerful astrological days - the 10th day of the waxing moon (Guru Rinpoche Day) and the 25th day of the waning moon (Dakini Day).

Tsok is primarily a practice of offering. It is a very rich practice with many layers of meaning, and it can be practised on various levels. Further it can be explained: “Ganapuja is a tantric ritual, made up of various phases, whose aim is the reconfirming of the “promise” or commitment (samaya) between the disciple and the master, and also between disciple and disciple. In addition to this, through consuming food and drink in the ganapuja, the practitioners develop their capacity to integrate contemplation with the sense-pleasures, as well as entering into the state beyond dualism, which is the inner meaning of the samaya” - Chogyal Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche, Dzogchen - The Self Perfected State, 1989.
