요약This dissertation investigates the meanings, uses, and implications of a Buddhist approach called rime within the Tibetan-exiled community living in India. Rime has been understood as an ideal of impartiality, a nineteenth movement of non-sectarianism led by Jamgon Kongtrul and Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo, and a practice of non-bias originating in the Buddha's teachings. Scholarly work on this topic thus far has focused on historical understandings and deployments of rime as non-sectarianism but has overlooked contemporary perspectives of this fundamental Buddhist approach. I first revisit the historical scholarship, specifically about Kongtrul and Khyentse's efforts, by contending that the rime movement was a trans-sectarian endeavor aimed to preserve teachings, as a response to the sectarian environment in Tibet. Building onto this understanding of Tibetan Buddhist history, this dissertation foregrounds contemporary theories and practices related to rime by highlighting the voices of monastics and renowned Tibetan leaders from the four main Tibetan Buddhist traditions based primarily in India. Through extensive interviews in Tibetan, combined with textual analysis, this study advances scholarship by underscoring the myriad interpretations and uses of rime today. Although Tibetan Buddhists today by and large talk about rime in terms of non-sectarianism, I argue that the rime approach cannot be understood holistically without noting what I outline as a framework of different categories or levels of rime, such as individual rime practice, rime seminars, institutional rime, and ultimate rime.The importance of these distinctions to rime becomes contentiously evident in the second half of the dissertation. I move on to demonstrate how Tibetan Buddhist masters use teachings on rime as tools for their immediate needs, expanding understandings of rime beyond impartiality to include equality, non-sectarianism, fairness, and the most unprecedented, secularism. Thus, I reveal how the Fourteenth Dalai Lama's deployment of rime extends outside Buddhism for the purposes of Tibetan nation-building, inter-religious harmony, and secular ethics. Khyentse lineage holders, conversely, strive to safeguard the authenticity of rime according to its historical teachings and deployments as only a Buddhist practice. By analyzing this divergence, I suggest how the consequences of rime practice, discourses, and teachings can potentially extend well beyond Buddhist practitioners as a crucial intervention to the problems of sectarianism, bias, and prejudice so prevalent in the world today. Hence, I conclude by proposing a middle way approach that prevents the appropriation of rime for political or economic gain, by emphasizing its soteriological roots and addressing its historical importance, while accommodating its applications inside and outside Buddhism.

■520    ▼aThis  dissertation  investigates  the  meanings,  uses,  and  implications  of  a  Buddhist  approach  called  rime  within  the  Tibetan-exiled  community  living  in  India.  Rime has  been  understood  as  an  ideal  of  impartiality,  a  nineteenth  movement  of  non-sectarianism  led  by  Jamgon  Kongtrul  and  Jamyang  Khyentse  Wangpo,  and  a  practice  of  non-bias  originating  in  the  Buddha's  teachings.  Scholarly  work  on  this  topic  thus  far  has  focused  on  historical  understandings  and  deployments  of  rime  as  non-sectarianism  but  has  overlooked  contemporary  perspectives  of  this  fundamental  Buddhist  approach.  I  first  revisit  the  historical  scholarship,  specifically  about  Kongtrul  and  Khyentse's  efforts,  by  contending  that  the  rime  movement  was  a  trans-sectarian  endeavor  aimed  to  preserve  teachings,  as  a  response  to  the  sectarian  environment  in  Tibet.  Building  onto  this  understanding  of  Tibetan  Buddhist  history,  this  dissertation  foregrounds  contemporary  theories  and  practices  related  to  rime  by  highlighting  the  voices  of  monastics  and  renowned  Tibetan  leaders  from  the  four  main  Tibetan  Buddhist  traditions  based  primarily  in  India.  Through  extensive  interviews  in  Tibetan,  combined  with  textual  analysis,  this  study  advances  scholarship  by  underscoring  the  myriad  interpretations  and  uses  of  rime  today.  Although  Tibetan  Buddhists  today  by  and  large  talk  about  rime  in  terms  of  non-sectarianism,  I  argue  that  the  rime  approach  cannot  be  understood  holistically  without  noting  what  I  outline  as  a  framework  of  different  categories  or  levels  of  rime,  such  as  individual  rime  practice,  rime  seminars,  institutional  rime,  and  ultimate  rime.The  importance  of  these  distinctions  to  rime  becomes  contentiously  evident  in  the  second  half  of  the  dissertation.  I  move  on  to  demonstrate  how  Tibetan  Buddhist  masters  use  teachings  on  rime  as  tools  for  their  immediate  needs,  expanding  understandings  of  rime  beyond  impartiality  to  include  equality,  non-sectarianism,  fairness,  and  the  most  unprecedented,  secularism.  Thus,  I  reveal  how  the  Fourteenth  Dalai  Lama's  deployment  of  rime  extends  outside  Buddhism  for  the  purposes  of  Tibetan  nation-building,  inter-religious  harmony,  and  secular  ethics.  Khyentse  lineage  holders,  conversely,  strive  to  safeguard  the  authenticity  of  rime  according  to  its  historical  teachings  and  deployments  as  only  a  Buddhist  practice.  By  analyzing  this  divergence,  I  suggest  how  the  consequences  of  rime  practice,  discourses,  and  teachings  can  potentially  extend  well  beyond  Buddhist  practitioners  as  a  crucial  intervention  to  the  problems  of  sectarianism,  bias,  and  prejudice  so  prevalent  in  the  world  today.  Hence,  I  conclude  by  proposing  a  middle  way  approach  that  prevents  the  appropriation  of  rime  for  political  or  economic  gain,  by  emphasizing  its  soteriological  roots  and  addressing  its  historical  importance,  while  accommodating  its  applications  inside  and  outside  Buddhism.
