The Tibetan Association of Boston (TAB) was established on Dec 8, 1992, and it is now a registered non-profit organization with 501(C) 3 status. Tibetan have a rich and a distinct cultural heritage that is deeply rooted in Buddhism. It teaches non-violence, compassion and peace. The preservation and promotion of Tibetan culture is not only useful for Tibetans but has much relevance to the present world of materialism and stress. These Buddhist values may enrich people’s lives and encourage them to look at life with a broader prospective, while conferring greater peace of mind and harmony.
In the case of recent wave of Tibetan immigrants to the USA, there is the added concern that those of the younger generation of Tibetans, mostly born here, are slowly losing their language and culture. If the Tibetan culture or way of life that has sustained the Tibetans for countless generations is lost overtimes, then Tibet’s future is also lost. At the same time millions of Americans will lose the opportunity to experience the character and values of this ancient culture.
Tibetan Buddhism, which is the essence of the Tibetan culture, has proven attractive to many Americans searching for a more compassionate and environmentally responsible worldview to enhance the quality of their own live and those of others. We are convinced that conserving Tibetan culture is not only the key to transmitting Tibetan social values to future generation of Tibetan Americans but will also enhance the already rich cultural fabric of the United Sates.
