In accordance with the recent notification from Tsurphu Labrang and in consultation with His Eminence Drubwang Sangye Nyenpa Rinpoche, the monks of Benchen Monastery had successfully completed the offering of a three-day “Pacifying Fire Ritual” from the Treasure Cycle of Namchö Mingyur Dorje. This is the most important priority for Benchen in our joyous effort to contribute to the pacification of all the obstacles and fulfillment of all the aspirations of His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa. The fire ritual that took place from November 30—December 2 concluded with a mandala offering in front of the enthroned portrait of His Holiness with the prayer that His Holiness may remain among us for hundreds of aeons and continue to turn the wheel of Dharma.
