On 17 August the making of the Tsatsas, mantras and puja texts to insert into Kyabje Tenga Rinpoche's stupas began. Chagdzö Tashi Öser and Karma Lama are in charge of supervising all of the preparations. Now the summer retreat (yarne) started in our Benchen Monastery and all senior monks are helping by enthusiastically putting their full time efforts towards the preparations. There are going to be a few thousand Tsatsas to be made.
Drubwang Sangye Nyienpa Rinpoche left to Singapore and Malaysia on 30 August. Rinpoche's health is much better. Nevertheless, it would be very nice if all of us could continuously pray for Rinpoche to become healthy and strong. Rinpoche is going to attend the Vajrakilaya Drubchen this November. On the last day of the Drubchen 23 November the Vajrakilaya lamadance is going to be performed.
That's all for now.
Namaste, Tempa
