I travelled to India in September 2013 and while in Dharamsala, I visited Kyabje Denma Lochoe Rinpoche and reminded him about a teaching that he had agreed to give and he said that he was willing to give this in South India. Therefore, I prepared thangkas and mandalas and so on in a very short time for this occasion and, according to plan, he gave this teaching in Drepung Loseling Monastery. This is a very important and secret teaching and traditionally can only be given to five students at a time, and only five times in one’s lifetime. I am therefore so glad that this teaching has been passed on and is now safe, and Professor Samdhong Rinpoche is also very relieved about this matter.

 In July 2013 I attended the 13th Seminar of the International Association for Tibetan Studies in Ulaanbaatar in Mongolia and it seems that this particular one had the highest attendance to date. I gave a presentation about the Geden Phacho Bhucho Preservation Centre and it’s work, after which many people told me that they thought it was a wonderful project. I met many fascinating people there and exchanged thoughts with many of them.

In December 2012 I was able to be in Mundgod for His Holiness the Dalai Lama's teachings on Lam Rim, Stages on the Path to Enlightenment by Je Tsongkapa and after these teachings, the highly respected teacher, Denma Lochoe Rinpoche, gave two days teaching to a large group of  lamas, tulkus and geshes only, over three hundred in all. There were some other teachings which were scheduled to be given by Rinpoche but he decided to give these at another time. This was an unexpected change in the schedule, but we hope that Rinpoche will see the right time to give these teachings soon.

On December 15th  2010 H.H. Ganden Tripa Kyabje Rizong Rinpoche has finished the lung (oral Transmissions) of Ngulchu Nyngwang Dorjes’ teachings, a small volume and also has given lung (oral Transmissions) of two volumes teachings by Wensapa Lobsang Dondrup 1505-1565 (dben sa pa blo bzang don grub). 

He is the 3rd embodiment of the Panchen Lama line and just before Panchen Lobsang Chokyi Gyaltsen the 4th Panchen Lama.

There were over 300 monks and also many lay people attended the teachings.

Towards the end, Geden Phacho Bhucho Preservation Centre and Tashi Lhunpo Monastery offered a long live ceremony to His Holiness Ganden Tripa.  There were many representatives of monasteries and organisations present.

The Geden Phacho Bhucho Preservation Centre is very pleased to announce that, as requested by Gyuto Tantric Monastery and the Geden Phacho Bhucho Preservation Centre, oral transmission of the teachings of Aku Sherab Gyatso (1803-1875), a great Gelug master from Amdo, have now been completed.. Kyabje Denma Locho Rinpoche started giving the teaching on the 15th  April 2010 and fully finished on 3rd May 2010. There were over 500 monks, including some Tulkus and Khenpos.  On the morning of 3rd May 2010 there was a TenZhug for Kyabje Rinpoche. This is a long life request ritual.

His Holiness The 102nd Ganden Tripa Kyabje Rizong Rinpoches' Teaching at Tashi Lhunpo Monastery.

From 17th to 28 November 2009 H.H. The 102nd Ganden Tripa Kyabje Rizong Rinpoche gave oral transmission on Ngulchu Yangchen Drubpai Dorjes' precious three Volumes.

Teachings took place at Tashi Lhunpo Monastery in Southern India. 

His Holiness Tri Rinpoche arrived at Bylakuppe with a welcoming by the Tibetan settlement and had held a brief ceremony. All the guests offered Khatak and Tri Rinpoche gave blessings to all. Morover, on that day also in the sky appeared very positive signs like clear rainbows.  

As Geden Phacho Bhucho Preservation Centre organized these teachings Tashi Lhunpo Monastery have kindly supported them in all ways necessary. Therefore we would like to thank you the monastery and all official staff.

Due to H.H. Tri Ripoches' enthronement ceremony at Gaden Monastery we had to shorten the teaching days, therefore, Ngulchu Ngagwang Dorjees' Teaching will be given next year with teachings of dben sa pa Lo-sang-dön-drup (blo bzang don grub). 

Hope to see you at the teaching.

The Geden Phacho Bhucho Preservation Centre would like to announce that the August teaching from the 7th of August till the of 9th September 2009 went well.

Venerable Gen Yontan Gyatso gave oral transmissions (Lung) on Gungthang Tenpai Donmes' (1762-1823) seven of eleven volumes at this time and will continue the remaining and Kunkyen Lama Jamyang Shepas' six volumes out of the fifteen volumes which survive the lineage (1648-1721). These written works are the text books of the Gomang College which is part of one of the largest Monasteries of Tibet and also of Labrang Tashi Kyil as well as monasteries in Mongolia.

Also we would like you to be involved in this work both financially and in your thoughts so please come forward for this precious project.

5/ Transmission and Exposition of Collections of Activities of White Manjushri - including process of realization (jam dbyangs dkar po’i sgrub thabs las tshogs - bshad lung) by Jamyang Shepa
6/ Empowerment of Combined Sadhana of  Lords of the Three Families (rigs gsum spyi sgrub rjes gnang)

These were the remainder of the teachings which were started in March 2008 and were left incomplete, due to events at that time.
 
Over five hundred monks attended the teachings, including Sharpa Choeje Rinpoche, several other abbots and former abbots, and Lama Zopa Rinpoche.  Some young tulkus also attended.
 
Furthermore, Sharpa Choeje Rinpoche, gave oral transmission of Little pithy volume of many oral instructions on the king of mountain deities who guards the northern quarters or the god of wealth, rnam sras be'u bum.(two volumes) and Great abbot Tenpa Chophels' collected work- mkhan chen bstan pa chos 'phel 1840-1907.(two volumes)

which lasted two weeks. After each of these teachings the ceremony for longevity was performed for each lama individually. Officials and members of many monasteries in Dharamsala were present.
 
Gyuto Tantric Monastic University generously looked after the lamas and monks who had come from other areas, providing their accommodation, meals and the transport for the two Lamas. I am very grateful for their support.
 
Unfortunately I was unable to attend personally, due to the restrictions of my visa at this time, however I was able to organize matters via telephone, fax and email, and the office staff in Dharamsala coped very well in my absence.
 
I was very relieved that the Camellia Foundation offered their financial support, £6,400, for these teachings and I thank the Camellia Foundation and Mr. Gordon Fox, Mr Peter Leggatt, M.B.E. very much for their generosity, I also like to thanks Geshi Thupten Jinpa la for his great help.
 
Although I am happy with the progress of the project so far, time is so important, as the lamas are aging all the time, and I know that with more financial help we could proceed so much more quickly and widely to secure these precious teachings.

Early last year Venerable Lama Zopa Rinpoche said he would help out with the Geden Phacho Bhucho Preservation Centres' loan which we had from the Conference in Dharamsala in Jun 2006. Rinpoche promised to donated US$ 5000 at the time and later last year gave US$ 5000 toward to the loan. So now the loan is paid off which is a great relief.

Ven. Tashi Lhunpo Kenrinpoch donated US$ 1000 in 2008.

In December 2008 Tolotsang Dolma and family Donated Rs.100,000 toward Teachings at Tashi Lhunpo Monastery.

In January 2009 Gajang Serkong Gazi Rinpoche donated Rs.100,000 in general.

In February 2009 Camellia Foundation donated £6400 towards the March teachings.

Therefore I would like to say thank you very much to Ven. Rinpoche and FPMT.

Also Ven. Tashi Lhunpo Kenrinpoch,Ven.Gajang Serkong Gazi Rinpoche, Tolotsang Dolma and family and also the Camellia Foundation, Mr. Gordon Fox, Mr Peter Leggatt, M.B.E. and many thanks to Geshi Thupten Jinpa la.
