The Ling Lineage: Khyongla Rato Rinpoche teaching Ling Rinpoche (left), Thamtog Rinpoche, Guru Rinpoche, Zopa Rinpoche, Dakpo Rinpoche, Pagri Rinpoche and others. Rinpoche was bestowing the oral transmission of a text written by the previous Ling Rinpoche's predecessor, which Khyongla Rinpoche had received from the previous Ling Rinpoche (b. 1903 d. 1983) and was teaching at the request of the present Ling Rinpoche (b. 1985).

Dharamsala, India: Tibetan Buddhist monk and photographer, Venerable Nicholas Vreeland, Director of The Tibet Center (the oldest Tibetan Buddhist Center in New York City founded by Khyongla Rato Rinpoche), sent photos from his recent stop-over in Dharamsala, the home of HH the Dalai Lama. After years of receiving NV's photo-email updates, I'm now posting his updates intermittently as "A Monk's PhotoJournal".Vreeland's Fine Art Photography was recently exhibited throughout Europe and the U.S., including the Foundation Henri Cartier-Bresson, Paris, with proceeds from their sales going towards the Rato Dratsang Foundation.
The Tibet Center and Richard Gere's Healing The Divide organization will co-host His Holiness The Dalai Lama's Teachings at Radio City Music Hall in NYC May 20-23, 2010. Purchase Tickets.
