hi there, mehereintheeast.  I'm not sure exactly where you can take Chinese classes.  I took some Chinese a few years ago and the way I found a teacher was by going to the campus of a university and asking people who looked Chinese. (Amazingly, every person who I thought was Chinese was actually from China.)\n\nYou answered my question about Guru Rinpoche, and I have a few more questions about it.  Your answer implied that Buddhas are not monks.  Most forms of Buddhism consider Shakyamuni Buddha to have been a monk, and in the Pali texts, he refers to himself that way, as do his disciples.  Is there a different view in the Nyingma school?  In the present case, I am not calling only lamas monks, but all five levels of ordained practitioners as defined by Tibetan Buddhism. Also, is there any record of Padmasambhava having been ordained?  He trained at monasteries in India, but I don't think he was actually ordained.  And finally, have you had any contact with Tibetans, Nyingmapa or otherwise, who feel that his choice to have various female consorts prevents him from maintaining the status of being a monk?  I understand that some people there feel that way.\n\nThanks.

He has a website, and if the tour information isn't posted there, you should be able to contact someone via his site for more information as to his next speaking dates.  \n\nEnjoy your visit with the bishop.  =)

The only one I could find is:\n\nGermaine Greer was born in 1939 Melbourne Victoria. After education at the Star of the Sea Convent in Gardenvale, and then winning a Teacher’s College scholarship, Germaine Greer enrolled at Melbourne University in 1956. She graduated with a BA honors from Melbourne University in 1958, an MA with 1st class honors from Sydney in 1963 and the following year she went to Cambridge University in England on a Commonwealth Scholarship. She received a PhD from Cambridge in 1968.

I have a number of gay friends who do - one is even the Australian leader of a worldwide christian youth movement. It was hard for them to reconcile the two lifestyles though. They are all Catholic and have been told they are wrong for a large part of their lives - luckily they found support within the church. I don't go to church myself but support them as I know how.

HI, well that all depends. What qualifications do you have? And what do you want to do in Australia? Do you want to continue teaching? If so what age range? How long have you been in China?

online? i don't think so; but she has some seminars in singapore, i think. sorry, am not a fan. though i used to study under her mentor (master yap cheng hai) before, later i swtiched to master peter leung. i don't like her... well, not that rumors says that she had a love child with master ych... but if i am paying someone to teach me, i like to pay someone who is the best, or one of the best. she might be a good fengshui writer, but sad to say she's not the best in fengshui to teach.\ni heard from one of her students, that when she teaches fengshui, she teaches you using her own luo pan, not the usual luo pan with all the chinese characters on it... not very authentic, i mean using her luo pan. chinese clients would consider you a fake using her luo pan for an audit. it is not very professional. and i heard that she does not teach what master ych did not divulge to her... very limited knowledge.\nso after that alledged affair, the fengshui business of master ych also was taken over by joey yap. i also took some courses under him, and i did not like it at all. because if you ask him a question, he will likely to tell you to take his other courses for him to answer that... it is all money, money money! so i switched to master peter leung. he taught me a many theories/ techniques including those of master's ych's at a fraction of what ych/joey yap's fees.\n\ni think my main point is that lillian too may be a great writer, but she's not a good fengshui master to learn from... join some yahoogroups, and have some friends there... especially those from singapore, they'd know more. just be careful from teachers who teaches fengshui, yet don't have a long history/ experiences in fengshui (like lillian too). my answer to you is what i experienced from about 5 years of attending fengshui seminars.\n\nwww.fengshuisos.com (master peter leung)

Yeah, why not let him go.  I hear the education system there is great.  They have the newest version of porno. And they even teach etiquette.  How to drink wine.  Sounds like a good idea to me.

Why not just go to your local sensei and seek advice from him directly? Doesn't he know more about asian religion than a PhD figure who is proabbly a Christian? Check out this website (I am familliar with Buddhism only sorry) They will answer your questions if you ask them.

absolutely, as long as you are sensible. use common sense as you would anywhere else in the world. the most prodominant crimes in australia are assaults on males aged between 20-25 years, and theft.\nnaturally you wouldn't advertise the fact that you were living alone, or that you are new to the country and nervous. that is the same in any country. melbourne is relatively safe, but don't stay around the ST Kilda area if you are anxious.\nwhen enrolling in your course speak to the student advisor and relay your concerns, they will be able to give you information about where other overseas students stay, safety issues etc..\nI live alone in the middle of sydney and i have never had a proble, but try to avoid travelling alone at night, again that's the same anywhere unfortunately.

A uk degree is far better than the one offered by australian university , because of the education standards there.besides most of the univ in Uk have a better reputation on world map than australian univ.I ,myself wanted to opt for an engineering degree from AUS but then somebody told me that it is not safe for grls besides they have poor infrastructure facilities.
