I just returned after a
wonderful retreat at the Holy Place of Achi Choekyi Dolma called Ati
Tse in Ladakh and have dedicated my practice to all sentient beings
and special prayers for your well being and for the success of your
dharma practices.
I would like to send my
appreciation and thanks to all who attended the recent opening of the
Amitabha Foundation Retreat Centre in Nepal, and the enthronement of
HE Palchen Galo Rinpoche.
Due to the last-minute
approval of the visit by HH Drikung Kyabgon
Chungtsang Rinpoche, and the fact that the project itself was not
fully completed in time for the event except for the temple which was
our focus, everyone involved in this project had to accomplish many
things very quickly at the last minute. With so much needing to be
achieved so fast, we wish to express our apologies for any
inconvenience that our guests experienced. We know that in some cases
arrangements for your stay, including food and transportation, were
not to the high standard that we had wished for.
Nevertheless, the
ceremony itself proceeded in a very auspicious way, in an atmosphere
of harmony and joy. I pray that now the temple and retreat centre
will be a great blessing, produce great realized practitioners and be
serving people from around the world.
Once again, I thank you
all very much for your continued and unconditional support in helping
to preserve the precious Buddha Dharma for many future generations to
come. May the accumulation of merit from all our virtuous deeds
benefit all sentient beings.
Yours in the Dharma,
His Eminence Choeje Ayang
Rinpoche
