I have never seen Ole smiling so big, or Rinpoche look more proud, they were positively beaming. Such a grandiose feeling of accomplishment they must feel, we all can feel, to see the cloth pulled back and the glorious Stupa finally unveiled in full and brilliant form. The bright blue sky, the flags softly waving in the wind, flower petals flying through the air covering everything in beauty and amazing color. The radiance of our Dharma family was overwhelming. Playful smiles and contagious giddy love was rippling through the space like a tidal wave of joy. True blessing in this life cannot be contained or measured, special moments such as this are forever etched into our heart memories as glimpses of perfection. A perfect day in a modern world needing as much light as one can muster. A world of color turned ever brighter through the unveiling of this treasured monument of devotion and inspiration for generations to come.
