'''Bylakuppe''' |
'''Bylakuppe''' is an area in [[Karnataka]] which is home to the Indian town Bylakuppe and several [[Tibetan people|Tibetan]] settlements, established by Lugsum Samdupling (in 1961) and Dickyi Larsoe (in 1969). Bylakuppe is the largest Tibetan settlement in the world outside Tibet. It is located to the west of [[Mysore district]] in the Indian state of [[Karnataka]] which is roughly 80 km from Mysore city. |

In 1960, the Government of Mysore (as [[Karnataka]] was called at that time) allotted nearly {{convert|3000|acre|km2}} of land at Bylakuppe in [[Mysore district]] in Karnataka and the first ever Tibetan exile settlement, [[Lugsung Samdupling]] came into existence in 1961. A few years later another settlement, [[Tibetan Dickey Larsoe]], also called TDL, was established. This was followed by the establishment of three more settlements in Karnataka state making it the state with the largest Tibetan refugee population. |

The Government of India built special schools for Tibetans that provide free education, health care and scholarships for those students who excel in school. There are a few medical and civil engineering seats reserved for Tibetans. Tibetans live in India with a stay permit which is processed through a document called Registration Certificate (RC). It is renewed every year, or half-year in some areas. Every Tibetan refugee above the age of 16 must register for the stay permit. RCs are not issued to new arrival refugees. The Indian Government also issues "Yellow Books" after one years' processing with a RC, which allow Tibetans to travel abroad which is an Identity Certificate. |

However, it is unclear whether these figures included the [[Vajrayana]] [[bhikkhu|Buddhist monks]] living there. Today, an estimated 70,000 Tibetans live in the settlements; these were established on land leased by the state government to accommodate some of the Tibetan expatriates who came to resettle in India after 1959. Bylakuppe consists of a number of agricultural settlements, colonies are close to each other, and has number of [[vihara|monasteries]] and temples in all the major Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Most notable among them are the large educational monastic institution [[Sera Monastery]], the smaller [[Tashilhunpo Monastery|Tashi Lhunpo Monastery]] (both in the [[Gelug]] tradition) and [[Namdroling Monastery]] (in the [[Nyingma]] tradition). Bylakuppe also has many Buddhist universities for advanced Buddhist practices. |

Bylakuppe is an area in Karnataka which is home to the Indian town Bylakuppe and several Tibetan settlements, established by Lugsum Samdupling (in 1961) and Dickyi Larsoe (in 1969). Bylakuppe is the largest Tibetan settlement in the world outside Tibet. It is located to the west of Mysore district in the Indian state of Karnataka which is roughly 80 km from Mysore city.
History
[edit]In 1960, the Government of Mysore (as Karnataka was called at that time) allotted nearly 3,000 acres (12 km2) of land at Bylakuppe in Mysore district in Karnataka and the first ever Tibetan exile settlement, Lugsung Samdupling came into existence in 1961. A few years later another settlement, Tibetan Dickey Larsoe, also called TDL, was established. This was followed by the establishment of three more settlements in Karnataka state making it the state with the largest Tibetan refugee population.
The Government of India built special schools for Tibetans that provide free education, health care and scholarships for those students who excel in school. There are a few medical and civil engineering seats reserved for Tibetans. Tibetans live in India with a stay permit which is processed through a document called Registration Certificate (RC). It is renewed every year, or half-year in some areas. Every Tibetan refugee above the age of 16 must register for the stay permit. RCs are not issued to new arrival refugees. The Indian Government also issues "Yellow Books" after one years' processing with a RC, which allow Tibetans to travel abroad which is an Identity Certificate.
Population
[edit]The town is mainly inhabited by Tibetans who, according to a demographic survey carried out by the Central Tibetan Administration's Planning Commission[1] in 1998, accounted for 50,727 individuals at that time. However, it is unclear whether these figures included the Vajrayana Buddhist monks living there. Today, an estimated 70,000 Tibetans live in the settlements; these were established on land leased by the state government to accommodate some of the Tibetan expatriates who came to resettle in India after 1959. Bylakuppe consists of a number of agricultural settlements, colonies are close to each other, and has number of monasteries and temples in all the major Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Most notable among them are the large educational monastic institution Sera Monastery, the smaller Tashi Lhunpo Monastery (both in the Gelug tradition) and Namdroling Monastery (in the Nyingma tradition). Bylakuppe also has many Buddhist universities for advanced Buddhist practices.
