Portland, OR — July 25, 2010

From Ven. Roger Kunsang:

Rinpoche’s retreat is going well.  It is a group retreat with eight other lamas, two Khadro- las,  and 40 senior monks. The schedule is good. The first session starts at 6 a.m., going through to lunch. The second session begins at 1:30 p.m., going until about 6 p.m. That’s it! Rinpoche has a quick lunch with Pari Rinpoche, nicely prepared by Sangpo and Tenzin. When the second session finishes Rinpoche goes to Khadro-la’s place. Khadro-la has Rinpoche do some exercises, similar to those found in the Six Yogas. They then they have dinner together and after dinner Khadro-la kindly brings out her  prostration board for Rinpoche to do  prostrations. This finishes around 10 p.m.

Rinpoche’s sugar levels seem to be slowly coming down, but they are not yet sweet! It is going  to take  time but hopefully with a little rest, medication, exercise and Rinpoche’s new determination (fueled by the advice from His Holiness!), it will be OK.
