	WHAT THE BUDDHA TAUGHT: Remembering Dr. Walpola Rahula
		Rahula influenced generations of monks, including me. Reading his `Heritage of the Bhikkhu' gave my whole generation of monks, a new understanding of our role in society, and gave us courage to practise a Buddhism which was both traditional and in touch with our modern society.
		Rahula was later instrumental in encouraging the formation of the first Theravada temple in the United States, the Washington Vihara, against fierce opposition from traditionalists in Sri Lanka.
		Rahula, whose initial support and constant encouragement were fundamental to the establishment and growth of the teachings of the Buddha in this country.

		In 1999, Rahula told the gathered students, faculty and community members, he embarked on a pilgrimage to the Gangotri glacier and then to Yamuntori, both in the Himalayas.The Gangotri glacier is the mouth of Ganges River and Yamuntori is the mouth of Yamuna River.
		Rahula and a friend took an older path than most travelers that is used only by sadhus (Hindu and Buddhist holy men) and slept in caves, temples or abandoned buildings.
		Rahula also spoke in several religious studies classes throughout the two days he was at IUP.Rahula was born Scott Joseph DuPrez in southern California in 1948 and raised as a nominal Methodist.

	Buddhist Studies: The Buddha and His Disciples - Rahula
		When Rahula was still a boy, the Buddha discussed with him aspects of Dharma that were suitable for the young and in such a way as he could understand and remember.
		Rahula was trained in the Ten Precepts and monastic discipline and when he was eighteen, the Buddha decided that he was ready for meditation and then gave him advice on how to practise.
		It is likely that Rahula kept himself in the background so that he could not be accused of taking advantage of being the son of the Enlightened One.

	Wife
		Rahula grabs Buddha's robe and declares his wish to follow him as an holy man. Hearing this, the court women and King beg Buddha to refuse so their royal lineage can continue.
		Rahula even ignores the fact that Buddha is his father, this being the principal theme and pivotal point, further compounded by the Shakya ordaining a death penalty for breaking the silence, which Yasodhara does by confessing his origins to her son.
		In accordance with the tradition that calls Rahula Buddha's son it explains the total absence of the ancient wife of Buddha in all posterior episodes the big departure- as told by all the Sutrapitaka and by most Vinayapitaka, with the exception of the "scenette" where Yasodhara tells Rahula that he is Buddha's son.

		Rahula Walpola, scholar and monk, discovers this foundation of Buddhism for us first through straightforward explication, never skipping over a point that has yet to be substantiated, then through translations from key scriptures.
		Rahula, a Theravadan Monk, begins his discussion by relating the life of the Buddha (the dhamma) and continues with an exposition of "The Buddhist Attitude of Mind".
		Rahula translates it as 'conditioned genesis', but much more to the point is the contemporary Vietnamese Buddhist Thich Nhat Hanh's translation of the idea as 'Interbeing'.
