Eequor - Why did you removed the Category:Buddhism link? Csbodine 21:38, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Year origin Nyingma

The year of origin in the document was 817 which can't be correct, however I can't find an exact date so it's now around 760, because the lower limit is 755, the year Trisong Detsen became King, and the upper limit is 767, because Padmasambhava's monastry is known to exist in that year. If somebody knows a more correct year, please feel free to change the document. KittenKlub 12:52, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

By what source is Padmasambhava's monastery known to exist in 767?—Nat Krause(Talk!) 01:26, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List of teachers

I have removed Khenpo Choga's name from this list because obviously this list is made up of the most famous teachers, and public figures like Khyentse Norbu. Nothing against Khenpo Choga, but not in one line with the great masters, please. Would you agree? Menmo 15:35, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tantric system

This entry starts with "The structure of tantric teachings of Nyingma is significant aside from the terma-tradition." Could anybody explain what this is to mean? Menmo 19:43, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
