On this indescribably sad occasion of our Kyabje Dudjom Yangsi Rinpoche’s parinirvana, we treasure the opportunity to join with our precious lamas and sangha to practice the Vajrasattva Dorsem Lama Chöpa beginning tomorrow at Pema Ösel Ling. From his own deep sadness following Dungse Thinley Norbu Rinpoche’s parinirvana, Lama Tharchin Rinpoche shared this advice in 2012:

“This kind of sadness and feeling of loss will encourage us to recognize how valuable Rinpoche’s teachings are that we received and to realize that if we don’t practice, then how great a loss that is. We received what nobody in this land, under this blue sky, has received. But we need to recognize this, keep it alive, keep Rinpoche’s blessings warm within our heart, without it fading or getting lost or letting it cool down without practicing. Truly, you can see how unbelievably lucky we are. I’m encouraging you not to let it cool down.”

~ Lama Tharchin Rinpoche

Dear Sangha and Friends,
It is with profound sadness that we are sending this email to inform you that our sublime teacher and Lord of Refuge Dudjom Sangye Pema Shepa Rinpoche entered parinirvana on February 15.
Lama Sonam Rinpoche said, “At the time of a great teacher’s parinirvana it is an opportunity to connect with the lama’s wisdom mind, which is always present. This is the best time to do practice.”
We will be doing Vajrasattva puja every day at Pema Osel Ling starting on Saturday, February 19 until the next full moon on March 18. The pujas will be streamed live and the links will be available free of charge with registration here.
With much love,

Vajrayana Foundation

“Even many years after beginning to practice the Dharma, we may experience obstacles, the habitual tendencies of our own various thinking. These definitely arise. As soon as we recognize that we have been carried away by those obstacles – our mental afflictions – then they can turn into spiritual accomplishment.”
