During this past week of our Karmapa Public Course at KIBI, New Delhi, we gained thorough knowledge from His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa Thaye Dorje, His Eminence Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche, Ven. Khenpo Lobsang, and Ven. Lama Jampa Thaye. Today, we concluded the course in an atmosphere brimming with joy and blessing.
On this final afternoon of the program, after an extensive Mandala Offering of Body, Speech, Mind, Qualities, and Activities to His Holiness the Gyalwa Karmapa, His Holiness’s bestowed a Namjom Empowerment to the gathering.
In a short Conclusion ceremony, the contributions of everyone involved in the course conduction were then acknowledged, and the Gyalwa Karmapa handed over tokens of appreciation to all volunteers. We thank you all for your working greatly during the entire course!
Foremost, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to our teachers who spent their precious time with us; it is thanks to your kindness that we were able to further our knowledge and also gain greater clarity about the importance of utilizing the time that we have to benefit both ourselves as well as others through the practices of compassion and wisdom.
Next, we would like to sincerely thank our Public Course Team, as well as all the participants who are always happy to visit our institute. Only through the coming together of all of us can such occasions develop their full potential. Thus we pray that these joined efforts will ripen into most wonderful fruits of genuine benefit for countless beings!
An on a final note, we are happy to announce our Public Meditation Course 2024 which will again take place in the month of December, yet this year from the 1st to the 10th, and which shall provide yet another platform for meeting with authentic meditation masters of the Karma Kagyu lineage. We are looking forward to seeing you back in KIBI very soon!
