November
2007: Kagyu Monlam in Bodh Gaya.
His
Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje led the Monlam
prayers for world peace and liberation for all sentient beings
on Nov 10th through the 14th at the Mahabodhi Temple in Bodh Gaya.
The final two days (13th and 14th) of the event were doubly blessed,
as His Holiness the 14th Kunzig Shamarpa had arrived and was joining
in the morning prayers. On the evening of the 14th His Holiness Karmapa
gave a “lung” for the Arya Bhadra Charya prayer of Samantabhadra.
The final evening of the event, His Holiness Shamarpa gave a “lung” for
Jamgon Kongtrul the Great’s commentary on the Seven Points of
Mind Training. This coincided with a book that was being distributed
written by the Venerable Shangpa Rinpoche on “Lo Jong” practice.
