Dear Sangha and friends of Gomde,

Farewell to Lama Drubgyu Tendar
Lama Tendar’s visit to Gomde has been a great gift. Not only is his knowledge of Buddha’s Dharma very rich; he is also a wonderful, humble and thorough teacher. We sincerely hope he will return as soon as possible to give more teachings. The Rangjung Yeshe Sangha association and the Rangdjung Yeshe Foundation have on behalf of the whole sangha sent a letter of thanks to Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche and the monastery in Nepal, in which we also request this. You can read the letter here. Easter courses with Erik Pema Kunsang
At Gomde we are very grateful that Erik passes on the Dharma in Danish, and helps us make practice and understanding more natural and simple.
