A warm welcome was given to Khenpo Gyurme on Sunday at the Center. He arrived from Kathmandu on Friday accompanied by Lama Tsering and Lama Karchoe. On Sunday, Khenpo Gyurme and the Lamas attended the morning Chenrezig Practice and participated in an animal release of earth worms in the park. Khenpo Gyurme then gave an open talk about the Tergar Oseling Monastery and answered questions about monistic life. A pot-luck lunch was enjoyed after which Khenpo Gyurme and the Lamas visited with everyone throughout the afternoon. Later on, Khenpo and the Lamas joined with us for our Mahakala Practice at the Center. In the evening, a special Welcome Dinner was held at the Mayflower Restaurant in Milpitas. Khenpo Gyurme and the Lamas will be with us for the coming week before departing for Phoenix. A special teaching on the Medicine Buddha will be given by Khenpo Gyurme this coming Sunday.
