During the Tibetan New Year 2007, Tenga Rinpoche went to Pulahari
Monastery to pay respects to H.E. Jamgon Rinpoche and Jamgon
Rinpoche’s general secretary, Tenzen Dorje, requested Tenga
Rinpoche to offer initiations to His Eminence.

The course concluded, as has been a tradition, with a short
pilgrimage to Pharping. Rinpoche said that it would be auspicious
to give a short teaching at the Benchen shedra, and this took place
in the shedra’s courtyard. Nearby, within the compound of the retreat
center, some of the participants have sponsored the building
of retreat huts, and their construction will be completed quite soon.
Rinpoche made the condition that these places would be made
available to other disciples of our Rinpoches when they are not
occupied by the actual sponsors. Rinpoche indicated that these
places are only for dharma practice.
After the course Rinpoche left for Dharmasala as His Holiness
Karmapa wanted Rinpoche to offer his service to His Holiness’s
education.
