Do Tibetan Buddhism divided into many Sect? I heard ppl said it has Red ,Black Yellow ,green Sect etc,so what?
what are the differences between these few sects
Yes, Tibetan Buddhism consists of many different sects.
There are basically four major lineages, and three minor lineages, and the four major ones are:
(1) Nyingmapa, known as the Old School/Old Tradition/Old Translation, also known as the Red sect. by the Chinese, because in ceremonies they wear the red ceremonial hats.
Then other three are known as the New Schools/New Translation/Sarma, and they are
(2) Kagyupa, also known as white sect by the Chinese, I guess at one point they have more yogi than monks, and yogis wear white dress.
(3) Sakyapa, also known as color sect to the Chinese, because their temples are usually painted with multi-colors decorations, with white chalky walls (where their name is coming from- Original Temple is on a Grayish white mount/mud).
(4) Gelugpa- known as the yellow sects because they wear yellow hats at ceremonies.
There are three other minor lineages and they are (1) Joonanpa, kick out Central Tibet by the 5th Dalai Lama, and settle into part of Gansu China, and maintain a few temples in that area all of this thousand years; (2) Chod- but this lineage had been incorporate into many of other lineages, and they are no longer function as a distinct sect; (3) Kadampa- also cease to exist as one distinct sect. and absorb into Gelugpa.
Nyingmapa was the original Tantric Buddhism School introduced by the well known Indian Saint- Padmasambhava; he is recognized as the Second Buddha by the Tibetans. They have eight mother temples and therefore they are divided into eight major sects within the Nyingmapa system, they are especially powerful with Tantric system.
Kagyupa was introduced after the Trisong Detsen, the Great Grandson of the Original King Songtsan Gampo, re-instate Buddhism, after several decades of anti-Buddhism environment, so the new masters reconnect with Buddhism by traveling to India. They specialize in Meditation, they have four major and eight minor sects within their system.
Sakyapa- their practices are from Nyingmapa and Kagyupa, and they start their students with Saravakayana teachings first, before they will introduce Tantrayana system to the students. They have four sub-sects.
Gelugpa is the school of thought based on the teaching of the Tibetan Saint- Je Tsongkhapa, he absorbed the Kadampa and some Nyingmapa and Kagyupa teachings, but the sect. very much concentrates on Sutrayana debates and recitation. One of their main concentrations is to get the “Geshe” title, a title somewhat like “Doctor of Philosophy of Buddhism”, therefore they are the weakest in Tantrayana compare to the other three sects.
Even though Dalai Lama is the most recognized Gelugpa monk, he is but one of the three leaders of Gelugpa in Tibet. Gaden Tipa is the spiritual Head of Gelugpa, Dalai and Panchen Lama each in term rule the temporal part of Gelugpa and part of Tibet. So they are divided into minimum three leaders and four sub-groups.
The Mongolian Gelugpa has their own system of ruling monks, and may confer to the Spiritual Head of Gelugpa; but it is questionable, whether they will confer to the other two Tibetan Lamas (Dalai and Panchen Lamas) as their leaders?
