Par labirintiem un Ariadnes pavedienu Labirinta iziešana kā garīgs rituāls daudziem no mums ir svarīgs arī tagadnē. Taču diez vai tas saista mūs ar senā iniciācijas rita nozīmi. Drīzāk mēs šodien saredzam tajā nevis ceļu, kas ved mūs no savas sākotnes zaudēšanas uz tās no jauna atrašanu, bet gan psiholoģisku iespēju kādu brīdi aizmirst par racionālu domāšanu, ļaujoties labirinta centrā esošās dvēseles balsij, citiem vārdiem, bezapzinātā vēstījumam jeb savai intuīcijai, vai gluži otrādi, pārbaudīt savu loģiku un orientēšanās spējas. Iespējams, vēl vienkāršāk – mūsdienu cilvēkam labirints ir vien veids, kā uz brīdi aizmirst par ikdienas stresu. Ne jau velti visbiežāk mūsdienu labirinti ir daļ…

Teacher-Student Relations in Two Tibetan Buddhist Groups in Helsinki

2017

AbstractBased on sixteen interviews with members of two Tibetan Buddhist groups in Helsinki, Finland, this article investigates how the role of the guru, power imbalance and power abuse are perceived by the students. This qualitative study aims at understanding what shape the reverence to the Vajrayana teacher takes in the egalitarian environment of a European country, where Buddhism is a relatively new phenomenon. The interviews show that while teachers are not losing importance, ways of choosing and paying respect to them changes. They also reveal confusion in defining abuse, and emphasis on personal agency and teachers’ accountability for avoiding it.

Discovering Buddhism Online : A Translocative Analysis of Tibetan Buddhist Forum Discussions

2018

The study investigates how tenets, meanings and practices of Tibetan Buddhism are re-contextualized by non-Tibetan students of online courses offered by a major Tibetan Buddhist organization. The research adopts transcultural and translocal perspectives and aims to enrich the understanding of how Tibetan Buddhism is establishing itself globally through online facilities. A 'translocative' analysis, suggested by Tweed (2011) for the study of Buddhism, is employed as the main lens for analysing the online program’s closed forum discussions. The data analysis reveals general trends in the development of Tibetan Buddhism as a transnational religion, and invites an extension of Tweed’s (2011) mo…
