Saturday, April 12th and Monday April 14th  are Canceled

Rinpoche still has a slight illness and needs to rest in the coming weeks. This past trip has been particularly taxing and Rinpoche is still feeling some of the aftereffects. Nevertheless, he has been thoroughly examined by both Eastern and Western doctors and all tests are normal. His overall health is good.

We think overexertion from travel and sleep disruption are the main factors. Please allow Rinpoche to rest and understand that he may not reply to your well-wishes and communications. We continue to ask students to refrain from requesting appointments and dropping by to allow Rinpoche the rest he needs.

While of course we don’t want to see our Guru with illness, times like these provide excellent opportunity for our Buddhist practice. Please recite the Medicine Buddha mantra “TAYATA OM BEKANDZE BEKANDZE MAHA BEKANDZE RANDZA SAMUDGATE SOHA” and pray for Rinpoche’s good health and long life!

Thank you sangha!
