Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.
When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.
His Holiness the Karmapa, who is in Canada, has said that he left a written message behind when he escaped for India in 1999 saying that he had no option but to leave, but that “In the future if I could be beneficial to Tibet, the Land of Snow, I will return soon”. He was speaking to an audience of about 4,000 Tibetans and devotees in Toronto, Canada.
