Numerous people came to celebrate His Holiness Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche's Birthday on the weekend of October 12th, 2013 at Trijang Buddhist Center in Northfield, VT. The weekend was full of blessings, and long life puja for Rinpoche. This was followed by volley ball matches , soccer matches, and rope tug of war between teams Vermont, New York, Boston, and Canada. Tibetan dance and other performances took place in the evening. Most of the people that came were Tibetans this time.
Long live His Holiness Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche.
Here are few pictures from the fun weekend. Enjoy everyone. :-)

Thank you so much donoharm for sharing these beautiful pictures. Rejoice to see so many people celebrating the birthday of HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche.
On the second picture of the first post, HH Trijang Rinpoche with Rabten Rinpoche on the right and is it Zawa Tulku Rinpoche on the left? Rejoice to see so many Rinpoche get together.
It is also very harm warming to see the pictures of Trijang Rinpoche playing games together with the team. He is so humble and down to earth.
May Trijang Rinpoche live long and turn the wheel of Dharma. May the ban be lifted soonest so that more will be benefited from Dorje Shugden practice.

@lotus1 no it is not zawa rinpoche.

@donoharm to the left of trijang rinpoche is Zawa Tulku Rinpoche
It is wonderful to see many Tibetans who are loyal to their lamas and their protector practices. In the west whereby CTA has little control over the livelihood of Tibetans, Tibetans show where their true allegiance is. CTA suppression of Dorje Shugden creates a situation whereby they don't really know who exactly practices Dorje Shugden, people can police one's outer appearance and conduct, but how do you police a person's mind?
The Gaden Trisur case was poignant example, CTA never saw it coming. The holder of Je Tsongkhapa's throne after serving his term successfully chooses to Dorje Shugden faction in the end. CTA's position is precarious at best, surrounded by people they think they can trust, but who next will start defecting to the other side. Who wouldn't take offense to CTA for splitting up tibetan communities and people? CTA divide and conquer policies, serves little purpose and is doomed to fail, why don't they save some of their credibility and end the ban?

I think they were right about the second picture of the first post. In that picture, Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche is performing a puja on the throne with Rabten Rinpoche on his right. The monk sitting on Trijang Rinpoche's left is Zawa Rinpoche. Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche's brother is the one holding the parasol and as far as I remember, he is not a monk.
Anyway, whatever it is, it is wonderful to see Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche has come of age. I believe this is his 30th birthday? I heard that there's a prophecy that things would move up for Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche from now on. His Dharma works would grow and soon the Dorje Shugden ban would come down. I rejoice and I am sure Trijang Rinpoche would be very busy then because he would be traveling, teaching and also reintroducing Dorje Shugden back to the monasteries.

my bad,... you all talking about the first set of pics i uploaded.. yes in that second picture it is zawa rinpoche.
not sure why.. i was thinking about the 2nd set of pictures i uploaded ( soccer pics)
my apology to all. have a great week.

Thank you, Donoharm for sharing all these beautiful pictures. It is indeed rejoicing news to see so many people celebrating the birthday of HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche. It is also wonderful to see HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche playing games and having a great time with the people.
May HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche live long and may the ban be lifted soon.

I love seeing these photos of HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche's birthday celebration. It is amazing to see him being so accessible to the public here. Many high lamas are engulfed with protocol and almost completely inaccessible in their ivory towers, yet here is HH Trijang Chocktrul, playing ball games, no less! What a spectacular lama he is turning out to be... perhaps he is in a unique position of not being a monk and that is why he can act like this, though i do believe that he is a monk/buddha at heart, regardless of what his outer look is. This outer impression will make him very attractive to spiritually searching young people of today.
I am just thoroughly happy that HH Trijang Chocktrul is becoming such a spectacular being. I wonder what lies ahead for this young master.

Donoharm, many thanks for sharing those wonderful photos on the birthday celebration of HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche. Such a nice get together of students and friends from every where. HH Trijang Rinpoche must have inspired so many young people, judging from the crowd of so many youngsters at the event. May HH Trijang Rinpoche live long and continue to turn the dharma wheel to benefit all beings. Counting the days that the Dorje Shugden ban would be lifted.

Happy Birthday to Trijang Rinpoche!
There is so much to rejoice about in these pictures.
And this is only a beginning, with the lineage that He holds, with the message that He has, with the looks also, with the line of incarnation that Trijang Rinpoche has going back all the way to Siddharta charioteer's, Trijang Rinpoche, an ally of Dorje Shugden, is on His way to become a superstar (with all respect due), one that spreads not music and movies but spirituality, happiness and the end of all sufferings: enlightenment!
-
HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche is truly a Lama of these times. His style and obviously being still young appeals to many in the west. To have volley ball and soccer games during his birthday celebration is in line with the times. The Lama is skillful and will endorse activities to hook and connect people with the Dharma.
Happy Birthday Rinpoche. May You live long!

This is Trijang Rinpoche's 31st birthday as he was born in 1982. What a delight and rejoicing to see these photos of HH Kyabje Trijang Choktrul Rinpoche – the reincarnation of the great and enlightened Master Buddha Vajradhara HH Trijang Dorje Chang Lobsang Yeshe Tenzin Gyatso (1900-1981), one of the greatest Gelugpa Buddhist Masters of the 20th Century and the lineage holder of Dorje Shugden practice. May Rinpoche live long and confer the Dorje Shugden practice far and wide!
-
Nice photos, thanks! It seems that many great lamas were born in the month of October and in the year of the Snake.
Happy Birthday Your Holiness, Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche, and please live long.

It is indeed true that HH Trijang Rinpoche is seemingly accesible to those who come and seek blessings and celebrate his birthday. But I am very sure that security is tight as well. Protocols and security are expressions of devotions necessary for students to practice and gain merits from.
Look at this video here where HH Trijang Rinpoche is constantly escorted by bodyguards to ensure his safety. We call our gurus "Rinpoche" or the Precious One for a reason, because they are precious and should not be taken forgranted of.

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY and LONG LIVE H.H. TRIJANG RINPOCHE and ALL LINEAGE MASTERS!!!
I love this new post UPDATE! H.H. Trijang Rinpoche is sure no "push over".
Point No.6 Trijang Rinpoche told the abbot: H.H. the Dalai Lama says he has to ban Dorje Shugden because the 5th Dalai Lama banned Dorje Shugden, so he is following in the footsteps of his own predecessor. H.H. the Dalai Lama is continuing the works of his predecessors as this is only ‘right’ since he is the incarnation of his predecessor. This is the logic H.H. the Dalai Lama gave. Then Trijang Rinpoche refuted this and said, then Trijang Rinpoche himself must follow in the tradition of his own predecessors by continuing his practice of Dorje Shugden, which is a very logical point. How come only H.H. the Dalai Lama can continues with his predecessor’s ‘legacy’ and no other Tulku or reincarnated lama may do so? Very powerful and valid point. There are more Tulkus who have practiced Dorje Shugden in their previous incarnations, so why are they not allowed to continue in this incarnation without persecution? Why is one man’s decision (Dalai Lama) allowed to override all others? Where is the religious freedom? H.H. the Dalai Lama’s policies do not allow for other lamas who wish to continue their predecessors legacies to do so in freedom. In fact there are hundreds of Monasteries, regions in Tibet, families that have practiced Dorje Shugden for centuries that are persecuted. This is their freedom to continue their legacy. Why is this not allowed is what Trijang Rinpoche questioned. This is what millions of Dorje Shugden practitioners have been questioning since the ban started.
See all 6 points of H.H. Trijang Rinpoche's refute and the messages the Abbots were asked to send back to HHDL and the CTA! http://www.dorjeshugden.com/all-articles/news/update-abbots-urgently-sent-to-the-usa/ (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/all-articles/news/update-abbots-urgently-sent-to-the-usa/)
H.H. Trijang Rinpoche's points are so powerful, wise, logical and truthful. He stands firm to what He believes and He has every right! And so do we ;) INSPIRING and COURAGEOUS LIKE A LION.
Yes I can H.H. Trijang Rinpoche taking over as the biggest and most influential Tibetan Lama very very soon! Bigger than HHDL most are already predicting and probably true!

Heard threats from anti shugden people on HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche, during his birthday celebration. Also being Ganden shartse abbot from india etc. At first glance it doesn't look like there is much security but security was very tight, even at the soccer games. There were a minimum of few people watching from out side and on the Vermont team with HH trijang rinpoche la, there were about 5 people that are very close to him including both of his brothers.

What do you mean "Also being Ganden shartse abbot from india etc." ????
There were threats from the Shartse abbot to Trijang Rinpoche? I can't believe that there are people who would dare to threatened a Buddhist teacher's life... especially one that has done so much for Tibet and the people! This is really times of degeneration... even sangha members are hard to trust. Very shameful for Buddhism as a whole!
