Shambhala Community Celebrates and Supports Unbroken Lineage of Profound Teachings

His Holiness Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche was a principal teacher to both the Vidyadhara Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche and the Sakyong, Jamgon Mipham Rinpoche. 2010 marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of His Holiness as well as the first visit of his tulku, Dilgo Khyentse Yangsi Rinpoche to the west.

The Sakyong Foundation is gathering contributions to offer a grant to support this historic visit. Gesar Mukpo, Sechen Kontrul Rinpoche, will present this collective gift on behalf of the Sakyong and the entire Shambhala community at the tea and rice ceremony at the Boulder Shambhala Center on 11 August.
