I'm agreeable to that, but in that case would suggest to have titles redirect to title holder names, rather than title holder names redirect to titles.  ie, 1st Karmapa redirect -> dus gsum mkhen pa, and 17th Karmapa as a page with links to both who have been called by the name and individual descriptions under their wylie names.  I will leave it to the editors to come up with the naming standards.  [[User:Tshering|smyo po]]

:I believe Thomas Roth already has made a lot of redirects, at least for the first 16. Try a search for "Karmapa" in the wiki search box. [[EPK]]

The successful application of confession must be undertaken within the framework of what are known as the four antidotal powers: 1) the power of repentence with respect to the negative acts one has commited; 2) the power of reliance on the Three Precious Jewels and enlightened mind; 3) the power of the actual antidote, which may entail meditation on emptiness, loving kindness, or mantra recitation; and 4) the power of resolve never to indulge willfully in such negative acts again. For a discussion on the confession of negativity, see also Dil-'go mKhyen-brtse Rin-po-che, The Wish fulfilling Jewel, pp. 41-44; and dPal-sprul Rin-po-che, The Words of My Perfect Teacher, p. 322.
