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.
The 10th abbot of the Dzongsar Tashi Lhatse Monastery, Khenchen Pema Dhamchoe Rinpoche, died on February 26 aged 83. He stayed in the Thuk-dam state – the final meditative stage before nirvana – for a week. Although clinically dead the body sustains warmth and does not decay during Thuk-dam. Mandala prayer and ceremonies will be held for the next 16 days. Rinpoche was born in Drakyap.
