H.E. Ling Rinpoche concluded today three days of profound and heartfelt teachings and initiations at Fuqing Association Singapore, in celebration of the auspicious occasion of Rinpoche’s 40th birthday.
We extend our appreciation to Maha Tare Buddhist Centre for their devoted organization and gracious hosting of these joyous events.
H.E. Kyabjé Ling Rinpoche arrived in Singapore and was warmly welcomed at the airport by the representatives of the various Dharma centers, the monastic community and devotees.
H.E. Kyabjé Ling Rinpoche participated in the celebrations marking the 70th Birth Anniversary of His Majesty the Fourth Druk Gyalpo, which this year coincided with the holy occasion of Lhabab Düchen (the Descending Day of Lord Buddha).
The celebrations were graced by India’s Prime Minister, His Excellency Shri Narendra Modi, who was the Special Guest of Honor.
The event brought together the entirety of Bhutan—His Majesty and the Royal Family, the government, and over 27,000 people filling the stands, many of whom had gathered since the previous evening.
Foreign guests, including ambassadors, heads of international organizations, and Buddhist masters from around the world who are in Bhutan for the Global Peace Prayer Festival, also joined the celebration.
