On the 21st of November 2013, a commemoration of the second year of all Tibetan schools focusing on dialectic training in Chauntra Tibetan School Village was held with an elaborate celebration and a demonstration of the students' talent in Buddhist philosophy. Following the request by the Principal of the School, Guru Vajradhara Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa blessed the gathering and provided profound teachings on the importance of studying the entire teachings of the Buddha along with Buddhist sciences and modern science. In general, acquiring authentic knowledge of the Buddhadharma depends on the Samaya between teachers and students. Teachers have to have authentic lineage with the right intention to teach students consistent with the teachings of the Buddha. At the same time, students should have the right intention to listen and study the teachings of the Buddha with pure devotion to the teacher. Most importantly, teachers and students should both apply what they have learned from the teachings of the Buddha in daily life and spend time contemplating and meditating on the teachings regularly.
