This magnificent stupa was built at the crossroads of two very busy roads. One leads to China. The other leads to Nepal. As a border area there is a large presence of troups....India defending, it’s border. Kalu Rinpoche declared that this stupa would help diffuse tension in the volatile area.
The Chariot for Traveling the Path to Freedom
It was such a relief to see the proud spire of the stupa after our endless journey from Bhutan
The Great International Tashi Gomang Stupa.
Founded by His Eminence Kalu Rinpoche to bring liberation in four ways.
When we drove into the courtyard the monks were setting up offerings to Vajra Yogini.
The prayers began
The fire puja was lit
We left as dark descended.
Sherab, Kalu Rinpoche’s cousin, was such a wonderful help to us. Lama Tashi, his good friend, was our escort.
These stairs are magnificent
A wonderful dinner prepared for us
Khenpo, the abbot of the Stupa, is a great Tara devotee. He hopes we will be able to dance at the stupa someday.
A special shrine to Guru Rinpoche
The second floor had a shrine room with Kalu Rinpoche as the focus of devotion
With Dolkar at her guest house
Loading the car.....how will we make it all fit.....did the bags grow bigger during the night?
