Background and Notes
Dorje Yongten Rinpoche has just left the Tibetan monastery that he has called home for most of his life, ordered by his master to see the world, and so has come to the nearest part of the world that he has been told encompasses all the world - Shanghai! Men (and even women!) of all nations are here, and so Dorje Yongten will be able to meet all peoples and learn about all cultures.
Having lived in the monastery since he was 4 years old, he certainly has an open mind about different cultures - some (if kind) would say a little too open-minded, others (if plain spoken), too naive. Luckily though, Dorje Yongten has little to be stolen, his only belongings his robes and his bowl with which he begs for food each day. His naivety can still get him into trouble, however - he is always far too trusting, and knows little of politics, scheming or confidence tricks, taking almost everyone at face value. Seeing that he is a Rinpoche, Dorje Yongten's master has decided that a spell in the world will cure him of these delusions; after all, the world if dhukka (suffering) - unless he witnesses some of this dukkha firsthand, Dorje Yongten will never be truly able to transcend it.
Dorje Yongten is protective of innocents, which unfortunately can often encompass anyone who is currently on the receiving end of street justice, whether they deserve it or not - Dorje Yongten has not yet learned to discern the good fromt he bad, and while he can be taken advantage of rather easily, is a formidable opponent to those he sees as wrongdoers. His Radiant Steel Fists of Doom carry him through any physical trouble that might occur, though he often reserves his Fearsome Righteous Donkey Kick for only the truly deserving of enemies. Quick to pick up languages, Dorje Yongten knows Sanskrit and Pali from his studies, Tibetan from his mother culture, and has picked up a smattering of several Chinese dialects on his travels. He has only been in the city for a week or two, but has already learned a few words of some of these European languages, and looks forward to practicing his new skills more as he discusses the benefits and philosophies of Tibetan Buddhism with westerners, who are no doubt dying to hear what he has to say on these important matters.
