In the Lap of the Buddha
Following the re-opening of the Rasa Trulnang Tsuklhakhang, the central temple in Lhasa, all of the new images of Buddhas, bodhisattvas, and famous lamas were placed behind glass except for those in the sancta sanctorum, the "Jokhang". When a pilgrim approaches the central figure, the Jowo Śākyamuni, she climbs a ladder on his right side, lays a ceremonial scarf across his lap, and then lays her head there, like a child seeking solace from her mo…
Building a 'cultural city
Nepal's devastating 2015 earthquakes prompted anxious attention to United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO)-designated World Heritage sites in the Kathmandu Valley and the means and methods for rebuilding damaged monuments and residences. As a value-loaded concept, the debate over 'heritage' today lays bare tensions between the national government and local authorities over the use of foreign experts, building tec…
Tsering
This is an ethnographic portrait of Tsering, a Tibetan refugee who is seeking asylum in France under a false name, age, and marriage. The portrait is assembled and disassembled through employing three successive perspectives: first, second, and third persons. In sum, this multiple portrait challenges the notions of the relationship between selfhood and authenticity as Tsering asserts that her truest self is an inauthentic one, that comes into vie…
House, Household, and Home
Through ethnographic fieldwork and analysis of policy documents about private housing reconstruction in the wake of Nepal's devastating 2015 earthquakes, we show how the contemporary "house," "household," and "home" are key sites of regulation for the state, as well as for the development and humanitarian organizations that work within it. Our discussion lays bare a more general set of questions about the relationships between these categories th…
Impermanence
Nothing lasts forever. This common experience is the source of much anxiety but also hope. The concept of impermanence or continuous change opens up a range of timely questions and discussions that speak to globally shared experiences of transformation and concerns for the future. Impermanence engages with an emergent body of social theory emphasizing flux and transformation, and brings this into a dialogue with other traditions of thought and pr…
On the Relationship Between Method and the Object of Study When Studying Religion
If a discipline is defined by the object of its study, then the definition of the object of study has a priori paramount importance. Studies of the evolution of the study of religion show that researchers have been unable to escape their own socio-political contexts. I begin with a brief consideration of the evolution of superstition as a means to gain perspective on the evolution of the study of religion and definitions of religion and as a caut…
Hope and Sorrow
Tibetan activists and their supporters are interpreting the lyrical and visual symbolism of contemporary Tibetan music videos from China as a call for Tibetans to return to a shared Tibetan identity, centered around religious piety and implied civil disobedience, in order to counter fears of cultural assimilation. As the popularity of some videos on social-networking sites dove-tailed with the 2008 protests in Tibet, viewers employed a progressiv…
Discords on Human Rights Buddhist Approaches to Human Rights
Arrested Histories
Arrested Histories: Tibet, the CIA, and Memories of a Forgotten War is a fascinating work from historical anthropologist Carole McGranahan focused on the Tibetan guerilla army (the Chushi Gangdruk/Four Rivers Six Ranges) who fought against the People's Republic of China between 1956 and 1974.Over a course of more than ten years of field research, McGranahan interviewed veterans of the Chushi Gangdruk who live in Tibetan refugee settlements scatte…
A Miscarriage of History
In this article, I examine how Wencheng Gonghzu, the Chinese consort to the first Tibetan emperor Songtsen Gampo, served as a contentious rhetorical site for Tibetan and Chinese historiographers for over 1,000 years. I argue present exile Tibetan and Chinese propaganda on such topics as Tibetan political, cultural, and hereditary independence from China is at least analogous and possibly influenced by historiographic traditions found in texts suc…
Re/Crowning the Jowo S ́ākyamuni
From the eleventh century to the present, the Jowo (jo bo) Śākyamuni statue has served as a perduring index of Tibetan Buddhist ecclesiastical history. Tibetan writers employed the Jowo as a discursive site where religio-political paradigms were negotiated and transformed through accounts of ritual observance and visions received. In 1409, Tsongkhapa Lozang Drakpa (1357-1419) crowned the Jowo, changing his doctrinal and iconographic representatio…
