The video of Jhado Rinpoche's visit: "The Monastery will be perfect, both internally and externally"

We are happy to be able to share the video of His Eminence Jhado Rinpoche's visit on the hill of the Lhungtok Choekorling Monastery, which took place on 18 April last.
We had the precious opportunity to receive from Rinpoche the oral transmission of the text The Recitation of the Holy Names of Manjushri (Manjushri Namasamgiti) and an oral transmission of the short self-initiation of Guhyasamaja to be done daily, for those who have done the retreat and wish to do all days self-initiation, and oral transmission with brief explanation of prayer for the speedy return of Kyabje Zopa Rinpoche which he composed in Palermo a few minutes after hearing the sad news.


Rinpoche speaking about the Monastery project told us:
 “with everyone's help it will be realized quickly and easily”.


“I am very happy to be here in this place where in the past the omniscient victorious His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Kyabje Zopa Rinpoche and many others blessed with their presence and where the Monastery will be built.
About ten years ago I had already been to this place, where the monastery will be built, and I had already made prayers and dedications. I remember very well what I thought at that moment, I was so happy with the Dharma activities that take place at the Lama Tzong Khapa Institute where people study and practice and, seeing so many monks and nuns, I thought that in such a place it is necessary to have a place for the sangha tidy. So I think it's really perfect now to make the Monastery, with people inside preserving and practicing the teachings, developing realizations within them.


I want to share with you my certainty and faith that thanks to the blessings of all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, the strong intention and determination of the monks and nuns, the representatives of the Lama Tzong Khapa Institute, the directors and all those in to the Institute, thanks to their merits this project will be realized very soon, easily and there will be a great flowering of listening and meditation in this place. […] The Monastery will be perfect, both internally and externally, with all the qualities I have explained.

This project, initially carried out thanks to the superior intention of Ghesce Ciampa Ghiatso and then later with great determination and courage by Ven. Massimo, I hope it continues in this direction with all of you together, just as brothers and sisters of Vajra.
You have to push this project, help and put the effort together, for this to happen.
I wanted to tell you these things. Thank you."
