Dear Dharma Brother and Sister, Tashi delek.
We hope this finds you in great health and spirits. We pray your every day is filled with much peace and joy, and that wisdom and compassion remain your most trusted guides. You and your family are always in our prayers and dedications. Rinpoche is doing very well and will soon take a short trip to Dharamsala to attend teachings and a special long life ceremony for His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Our resident students are busy with their studies and the young monks are growing very quickly.
On behalf of Lati Ladrang, we cordially invite you to attend the special "Tsokchen Tulku" Enthronement Ceremony for Rinpoche at the Gaden Lachi prayer hall. This auspicious event will take place on August 2, 2022 and confirm Rinpoche as a "Tsokchen Tulku," or a tulku that is recognized by the Tibetan government.

PAP application is now done online, and though approval is relatively faster than it was in the past, it may still take up to 2 to 3 months to receive your permit. Please remember to check on the updated info from the website if you coming to monastery and it may take up to 2-3 months to process, so it's important that you apply as soon as possible if you coming.
