Visit
of Sharmar Rinpoche in Dhagpo Kagyu Ling
( August, 2002)
Sharmar
Rinpoche came in Dhagpo Kagyu Ling when the Gyalwa Karmapa was present
(15 -17 of august).
He took part to the ritual of "consecration of the land"
(rabne) and to the laying of the foundation stone of the Dhagpo Kagyu
Ling Institute.
We were all happy to see the Gyalwa Karmapa and Kunzik Shamar Rimpoche
displaying together the activity, in accordance with the intention
of the 16th Karmapa.
