Mission accomplished in Kuala Lumpur
Dear All,
On Monday 22nd June I arrived back to Singapore from Kuala Lumpur. I am very happy and deeply satisfied with what we managed to do while we were in Kuala Lumpur for almost a month.
Since my arrival to Kuala Lumpur till the day I left I had a very busy schedule working every day to Organize the events and prepare the return of the monks etc.
I am very happy to have His Holiness Kyabje Lati Rinpoche pleased to see all the programs and events organizes well. Finally, to work out all the paper works and other things to facilitate his visit to Taiwan, which he agreed on genuine, serious and strong request from Taiwan Center's care takers.
On 21st June afternoon I left Kuala Lumpur and I am glad to have Mr and Mrs. Lim and Mr & Mrs Ng to see me off at the bus station. We took bus from Kuala Lumpur to Johor and arrived to Johor by 6pm. In Johor Bahru we were received by Mr. Siew Tuc Seng. It was good to see him and his kids again after a year. Then we went to Maha Prajna Buddhist Society and stayed there for the night.
Next day we did blessings for Ms Jennie and then a blessings service for Mr. Siew's sister. This day we had the lunch with Mr. Siew and his daughters. Then we went to Plaza Plangi mall to meet the group of friends who came from Singapore to receive us.
We were back to Norbu Choeling by the evening.
Tuesday I was busy whole day with some check ups. Then Wednesday too was busy in preparing some mantra docs. Thursday, I was busy with Mei Yie Lee in doing paper works and had my Lunch with Lynda and Albert. Then on Friday I had Lunch with Mr. George and group along with three Shri Lankan Venerable.
Now today I had lunch with Norbu Choeling committee members and devotees. After the lunch I paid a visit to Ven. Geshe Tenzin Tamdin (good friend of mine) at Upper Thompson Road. He is due to return back to Spain on 30th so it was important to see him before he leave. We had very good chat together for some time.
I am still here for few more days and then I will be gone out to the city to return to my monastery in India. Wish you happiness and prosperity you are welcome to call me at my singapore cellphone 0065 94605498 or Delhi cellphone 0091 9990642899.
Sincerely yours,

On arrival to Singapore
Now I am writing this from Singapore. I arrived here yesterday morning to lead Vesak day (Holiest day for Buddhist all over the world) programs. I am invited by Norbu Choling Center to lead special programs they are organizing here in Singapore.
I had very good and relaxing time in Klath Manali while I took bath in natural hot sulfur springs. After that I spent few days with the family of my paternal aunty at Patlikuhl. I also had an excursion trip on the top of mountains next to Klath. I visited the famous pilgrim Temple of Bijli Mahadev on the top of a mountain next to Kullu city. Then I went to Manali and stayed at the accommodation provided by Mr. Tsewang Norphel. His hospitality is remarkable. We had an excursion of Bias Nala and Marhi. Marhi and Bias Nala in very beautiful with plenty of snow for skiing and photography. We also went to Solang valley but it was quite windy there when we arrived there. All total I had very good and pleasurable trip to Manali area.
It is pleasure to return back to Singapore almost after a year. As usual Singapore is hot and humid. On arrival to Singapore Airport I noticed each passenger have to pass through heat scanner. After my sojourn in Manali, on arrival to Delhi I felt the heat prickly, but on arrival to Singapore I found the humid heat less disturbing then extremely hot dry heat of Delhi.
This year's Vesak Day celebration in Norbu Choling includes Namgyal Tongcho, Robe Offering to Sangha community of Kee monastery, Naga Puja, Animal Liberation, Yamantaka and Protector Puja and White Umbrella Puja.
I plan to remain here in Singapore till 24th of May and then I will go to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia to assist His Holiness Kyabje Lati Rinpoche in special programs organized at Times Square.
I welcome every one to write back to me if any one needs information of explanation on any of these activities.
I wish every one happy, good and healthy Vesak day. May the message of great Master Buddha prevail on earth and every body enjoy the happiness of Nirvana (a state free from sorrow and suffering).

Taking bath in hot sulfur water in North India
Now I am posting this from Manali a famous hill station and resort in North India. I am here since 5th April and I am here to take dip in natural hot sulfur springs to help my left leg, where I have been experiencing pain since some time.
Since my arrival the weather has changed a lot. Some times it remains good with sunny days and other days it rains a lot and get cold. Infact, we had rainy days for past few days and today is sunny and good day after long time, so I am enjoying my time. Now I am here in a cyber cafe to check my emails. The Valley here is very beautiful but quite cold specially for me if it rains.
I am taking dip in the hot sulfur spring almost for a week now and I am doing good. This place where I have bath in hot sulfur water it is surrounded by mountains and I can see the snow on the top of the mountains from my living place.
The valley now is filled up with apple and peach blossom so it is really beautiful around. I send my prayers and blessings to all of you living around the world. With love.

Dharamsala vist
Dear All,
Now I am in Gyuto Tantrik Monastery in Himachal Pradesh in Northern India attending an important teaching and today is final day of first leg of the teaching. Tomorrow is long life offerings to His Eminence Kyabje Denma Lochoe Rinpoche. From whom we received the teachings for whole week. This teaching is continuation from last years teachings.
After that we are waiting for the teachings from Dhakpa Rinpoche of Sermey monastery. These are senior masters who grew up and trained in Tibet before the political changes in Tibet. These are rare and important generation of masters that we are receiving teachings from.
I plan to remain here till the beginning of April when all teachings will be complete and then I plan to travel to Manali further north to take dip in natural hot springs. I look forward to enjoy being in deep hills of Himachal in the mid of extraordinary natural beauty of Himalayan valleys and mountains.
I will keep all of you informed about my travelings in coming weeks. With my best wishes and regards,
