Dear friends:
In the name of Garuda Mexico I am pleased to invite all members of the Bon worldwide sangha to celebrate the Internal Consecration of the Great Stupa for World Peace. We would be very pleased if all our Bonpo brothers and sisters, as well as any and all others who feel moved to participate, could come to share with the Mexican sangha in this very special and sacred event.
The consecration will take place on December 4, 2010, in Chamma Ling, Valle de Bravo, Mexico. We will be honored in this great celebration with the presence of our beloved teachers Yongdzin (Lopon) Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche, Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, and Khenpo Tenpa Yungdrung Rinpoche; as well as with the presence of Tulku Jorge Rene.
From November 26 to December 4, we will have various activities surrounding this main event, including a seminar and lectures. Before the consecration there will be a circumambulation of the Great Stupa and a guided meditation, both dedicated to world peace.
