DTG's First Year Experience

Visiting the Rueben Museum

It was a great experience that we went to Rueben museum as class. I didn’t really know much about Buddhism before. After going to the Rueben Museum of Art, I learned a lot Buddhism. I learned that Buddhism was originated from Tibet and there are many different gods in Buddhism. I learned how humans have to go through different life forms before getting to nirvana. I also learned how the next Dalai Lama is chosen; they test all the babies that are born the next day when the current Dalai Lama dies. The best part for me in the museum is the shrine room; where they display how the traditional Tibetan shrine room looks like. I’m really glad that we can visit the museum as a class because I know I wouldn’t have visited on my own and I learned a lot from this experience.
