What an incredible week it has been!

Malaysia - The Fondest Farewell

I am so touched and moved by what I have seen here; the people, the energy, the charisma and charm - everywhere you look there was always someone with a huge smile looking to come over and say hi, to express their excitement and joy, it was a contagious overflowing overwhelming parade of non stop wow from start to finish.

Karmapa was outrageous. He was magnanimous and compassionate, seeming to fill the whole of the space everywhere he went, his bodacious energy matched equally by the myriad of devotees, volunteers and students from all over the world that made this event one to top the history books. It could not have been better. From last night’s gala dinner in celebration of KKDS’s 40th anniversary, and onto the airport for the final goodbye as Karmapa’s flight just left this evening, it has continued to be so incredible, like every single moment contains within it a trillion bursts of joy just begging to come out and explode onto humanity. It was truly beyond description, and I will remember this forever.

I wish to thank everyone that put this on, all the volunteers and everyone from KKDS; you worked so amazingly hard and it was evident due to all your hard work and devotion this was such a huge and triumphant success. To all of you joining in from all over the world, sharing and spreading the word of Karmapa’s activity and all we have seen here: it has been such a joy and my extreme honor to be able to share this with you. In order to truly show my most sincere thanks and appreciation, I would like to offer you all a gift. You have touched my heart with your actions, words and support, and while I don’t have much to offer you, I will give what I can. I want to offer all my pictures for high quality download, so that we can all remember this wondrous time we spent together forever. They are my most cherished of possessions, they are all of me, and they are yours to keep, yours to share, yours to do with as you wish. So, please follow the link below to download my entire photo collection from Karmapa’s visit to Kuala Lumpur, from start to finish, all in print quality, my small gift to you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, you have inspired me and proven time and time again that our Dharma family, this incredible outrageously diverse and crazy family, is quite simply the most amazing family I have ever known or could ever want. I consider it my life’s greatest honor to be a part of it with you all.

Dharma Family United!
