An-shu’s Friend Arjia Rinpoche Visits Dayton on Book Promotion Tour
by DQC Staff on October 20, 2010

An-shu Stephen K. Hayes hosts his friend Arjia Rinpoche, Director of the Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center (TMBCC) of Bloomington, Indiana, on his visit to Dayton, Ohio, to promote his new book, Surviving the Dragon, published by Rodale Book Company with a forward written by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
Surviving the Dragon is the story of Arjia Rinpoche’s growing up as the reincarnated Abbot in Kumbum, one of Tibet’s major monasteries. After the death of Mao Tse Tung, Arjia Rinpoche rose to prominence within the Chinese Buddhist bureaucracy. He was slated to become tutor of the Chinese-selected Panchen Lama, but he fled Tibet rather than betray his Buddhist religion and his Tibetan and Mongolian heritage. Rinpoche’s unique experience provides a rare perspective on this tumultuous period of Tibetan and Chinese history as well as a glimpse of life inside a Buddhist monastery in Tibet.
Rinpoche visits Dayton to participate in multiple events. October 25th, Rinpoche will host a book talk and signing at 4 pm at Borders Books and Music . October 26th Rinpoche will deliver a lecture to The Miami School Tibetan Buddhism class. The University of Dayton Cultural Studies Department then hosts Rinpoche at 5:45 pm on campus.
For a complete list of dates and events access the Surviving The Dragon site through the TMBCC.NET website.
