How wonderful to have Christmas in Delhi – with the possibility of an audience with
HH Karmapa during the Karmapa 900 closing ceremonies.
And the New Year 2012 blossoms with showers of blessings and aspirations in Sikkim ─
– a beyul for powerful spiritual practice predicted never to be invaded by the violence of the world.

to remote magical monasteries and sacred Guru Rinpoche caves
with backdrop majestic Kanchendzonga 3rd highest Himalayan peak –
symbolising the immensity, beauty, incomprehensibility, and sacredness of our planet.
Enjoy the natural beauty of Gangtok clinging to steep slopes with its floral paradise & art & crafts,
and shopping in pictureseque Darjeeling, amidst tea plantations.

Margaret may be you can answer me , I am very pleased with the theme of the retreat, ” The Shower of blessings” because, as many other students I’m saying this prayer for the paranirvana of Kyabje Trulshik Rinpoche, unfortunetly I can not go to Sikkim, do you think is possible to post the teatchings in Bodhisharya after the retreat?
with many thanks for your work and dedication
Paula
Paula, I don’t know if the teachings will be recorded but I can find out for you and whether it will be possible to make them available to others or not.
Best wishes,
Margaret ford
