TAKING REFUGE (PDF-1916)

This next Wednesday, September 15th, 2010 at the Heart Center KKSG here in Big Rapids (309 Marion Avenue, 7 PM), we will have another evening with Lama Karma Drodul, where he will take your questions and speak more about his own experiences life in Tibet and his dharma training. Last Wednesday, he told us something about growing up in a nomad family on the high plains of Tibet. Born and raised in a yak-skin tent, Lama Karma shared how it was so cold in the winter that the members of his family slept right next to each other in a row to conserve warmth. And just a few feet away, in the same tent, the baby animals huddled together to keep warm. His stories are fascinating. This coming Wednesday, we will do more of the same, and this will be the last session at which Lama Karma will be present before he heads back to his main monastery in New York. All are welcome to come, listen, and share.
