We tried to do our best to assure that everything was OK at the moment of his arrival. We wanted Rinpoche should feel at ‘home’. Everyone worked hard to prepare neccesary things, and deliver them the best he could. It has been a real collaboration between sangha members. Many of them coming from afar.

25th, Saturday, we were worried, as confused reports were coming about the strong earthquake.

In Nepal the land had started and continued trembling. We saw the first shocking pictures of the earthquake. Rinpoche told us that his familly members and people in the monastery were safe.

26th, Sunday. It was Sangye Menla day, together with Rinpoche we organized a practice to benefit of the deceased in the earthquake.

We were blessed with his presence. About 80 people, repeating calmly the mantra of Buda Menla. Very precious moments for everyone.

29th, Wednesday in Barcelona at the Tibet House, lama Thubten Wangchen received Rinpoche with a tea of welcome. Then the teachings of the ‘Four noble truths’ were listened with attention for those present.

In the pictures you will find the discrete presence of Lama Tenzin. His help and advises were essential and very useful. ¡Gracias Lama Tenzin!
