A Rosary of Rubies: The Chronicle of the Gur-rigs mDo-chen Tradition from South-Western Tibet
Full text linkThe mDo-chen bKa’-brgyud-pa school represents a little known Buddhist tradition from Mang-yul Gung-thang in south-western Tibet. It goes back to a Buddhist yogin known as Ma-bdun-pa or Ma-bdun ras-chen (12th/13th c.) and was later mainly spread by members of the Gur family. Although belonging to the “Upper ’Brug” (stod ’brug) branch of the ’Brug-pa bKa’-brgyud-pa school, the mDo-chen tradition has always been deeply infused with the “spoken teachings” (bka’ ma) and “treasure teachings” (gter ma) of the rNying-ma-pa school, and the cult of the “Seven Ma-mo Sisters” (ma mo mched bdun) was particularly practised and transmitted by its members. This book presents a critical edition, an annotated translation and a photographic reproduction of a manuscript copy of a rare chronicle of the Gur-rigs mDo-chen tradition written by Brag-dkar rta-so sPrul-sku Chos-kyi dbang-phyug (1775–1837). The text provides us with an overview of the tradition’s development mainly through biographical accounts but also through prophecies, prayers and praises for individual masters. The study concludes with two appendices based on the mDo chen bka’ brgyud gser ’phreng, a lineage history composed in the 15th century, and the “records of teachings received” (thob yig) of three important members of the Gur family, thus allowing us to gain an insight into the transmissions of the mDo-chen bKa’-brgyud-pa school and the interactions of its representatives with other important Buddhist teachers up to the 18th century. The present work is a further outcome of the author’s investigations into the cultural and religious traditions of south-western Tibet and the neighbouring Himalayan valleys

Imma phuocbuu Buchsbaum, Chi & Chen, sp. nov. from south Vietnam (Lepidoptera: Immidae)
No full textDuring a faunal survey of Lepidoptera in 2023, Imma phuocbuu Buchsbaum, Chi & Chen, sp. nov. was discovered and represents the first record of the genus in Vietnam. A single male specimen was collected from atransitional biotype between mangrove and semi-deciduous dry lowland forest habitats near the coast. The newspecies is distinguished from Imma transversella (Snellen, 1878), I. semicitra Meyrick, 1937 and I. semiclara Meyrick, 1929 by differences in wing pattern and genitalia morphology.Während einer faunistischen Untersuchung von Lepidoptera im Jahr 2023 wurde Imma phuocbuu Buchsbaum, Chi & Chen, sp. nov. entdeckt und stellt den ersten Nachweis der Gattung in Vietnam dar. Ein einzelnes männliches Exemplar wurde in einem Übergangs biotop zwischen Mangroven und halbtrockenen Tieflandwäldern in Küstennähe gesammelt. Die neue Art unterscheidet sich von Imma transversella (Snellen, 1878), I. semicitra Meyrick, 1937 und I. semiclara Meyrick, 1929 durch Unterschiede in der Flügelzeichnung und der Morphologie der Genitalien.Durante un estudio faunístico de Lepidóptera en 2023, se descubrió Imma phuocbuu Buchsbaum, Chi & Chen, sp. nov. y representa el primer registro del género en Vietnam.

No full textThe Great Tibetan Translator: Life and Works of rNgog Blo ldan shes rab (1059–1109)
Full text linkSecond only to the famous Rin chen bzang po (958–1055) in receiving the title of a “Great Translator” (lo chen) during the period of the “Later Propagation” (phyi dar) of Buddhism in Tibet, rNgog lo tsā ba Blo ldan shes rab (or rNgog lo) was one of the most influential figures in the establishment of Tibetan Buddhist scholasticism. After having devoted seventeen years of his life to the study of Sanskrit under scholars in Kashmir, India and Nepal, he became renowned for his more than fifty painstaking translations and revisions of Buddhist scriptures. Apart from being the foremost Tibetan translator of works on Buddhist logic and epistemology (Pramāṇa), rNgog lo’s activities as a commentator and teacher are regarded as fundamental for the later development of this field of learning in Tibet, and his tradition came to be well-known in Tibetan literature as the “rNgog tradition” (rngog lugs). This book presents a detailed examination of rNgog lo’s life based on the available Tibetan accounts, including his biography (rnam thar) written by Gro lung pa Blo gros ’byung gnas (fl. late 11th to 12th c.). Annotated translations of great parts from the latter work (one of the earliest surviving examples of the rnam thar genre, possibly unique regarding its complicated and elegant style) are included in the book. rNgog lo’s oeuvre as a translator and writer is dealt with in detail, making the book an important source on this hitherto little studied scholar and his tradition
