''Sure this is not the word of that Exalted One, Arahant, the Fully Enlightened One"
Last Days of the Buddha,Maha parinibbαna Sutta (Digha Nikαya Sutta 16) & Anguttara Nikαya Sutta 4.180 "In this case. Monks, a monk might say : Face to face with the Exalted One, your reverence, your reverence, did I hear it; face to face with him did I receive it. This is Dhamma, this is Vinaya, this is the Masters teaching. Now, monks, the words of that monk are neither to be welcomed nor scorned, but without welcoming, without scorning, the words & syallables are to be closely scrutinized, laid beside Sutta (Abidhamma is obviously a much later collection) & compared with Vinaya. If, when thus laid beside Sutta & compared with Vinaya, they lie not along with Sutta & agree not with Vinaya, to this conclusion must ye come: Sure this is not the word of that Exalted One, Arahant, the Fully Enlightened One, & it was wrongly taken by that monk. So reject it, monks."
http://dhammapada.buddhistnetwork.com/ Anguttara Nikaya Sutta 5.88 (The Buddha Gave Us This Warning For The Future It is possible that a world-renowned monk of very senior status, with a huge following of lay & monastic disciples & who is highly learned in scriptures, can have wrong views. In Anggutarra Nikaya 8.51,(Refer also to The First Sangha Council-The Thera Mahakassapa has made the blessed Buddhas message to endure 500 years - from the Mahavamsa book) the Buddha warned that the true Dhamma would remain unadulterated for 500 years after his passing into Nibbαna. Thereafter, it will become very difficult to distinguish the true teachings from the false. Why? Because although many of these later books contain a lot of Dhamma, some adhamma (i.e. what is contrary to the Dhamma) are added here and there. These alterations scattered throughout these texts are only noticeable if one is sharp and very well versed in the earliest suttas. Otherwise, one would find it very difficult to distinguish the later books from the earlier ones. http://Dhammapada.Buddhistnetwork.com http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Dhammapada2all/ http://geocities.com/dhammapada2all/

http://www.jewelheart.org/ - Jewel Heart is a spiritual, cultural, and humanitarian organization that translates the ancient wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism into contemporary life. Founded by a marvelous teacher in the person of Nawang Gehlek Rinpoche. The goal description: Buddhism is a path for stabilizing and transforming the mind, leading to greater happiness and the fulfillment of human potential. Introduced in India over 2,500 years ago by the enlightened teacher Shakyamuni Buddha, Buddhism spread throughout Asia. In the seventh century Buddhism began to take root in the remote Himalayan region of Tibet. During the next several hundred years many Indian masters made the journey to teach in Tibet. There Buddhist texts were translated into Tibetan and great masters such as Je Tsonkhapa composed new commentaries. Thousands of monasteries were founded, unique artistic and literary traditions were inspired, and extraordinary yogic practitioners flourished outside the monasteries, many of them in solitary retreat. Buddhism so radically transformed the culture over the next thousand years that Tibet has become a world symbol of spiritual mastery. In recent decades, Buddhist principles and wisdom have begun to penetrate Western thinking in diverse disciplines such as science, psychology, medicine, metaphysics, and the arts. Jewel Heart seeks to serve as vehicle and witness to this process of personal and cultural transformation by translating the principles of Tibetan Buddhism into contemporary life, so that all may benefit from this living tradition.
