All of the monks want to wish you much peace and happiness in 2009. We also want to thank you all so much for all your kindness and generosity throughout the past year. It is because of you that we are able to have such a successful (not to mention fun, rewarding, and at times exciting) tour. Please remember to create virtuous actions with your body, speech, and mind while avoiding non-virtuous ones =)

We welcomed in the New Year today at an very unique and amazing place located out in Joshua Tree, California. We participated in the “Good Vibrations 2009″ celebration at the Integratron. Check out their link – it is a very interesting place. There was a great turnout and we started things off with a group healing, followed by a site blessing. Everyone was wonderful and it was an auspicious way to start off our new year. Their photographer said she would send us some pictures, so as soon as I get them I will post some. Currently they have a amazing interactive exibit titled Blue Morph created by Victoria Vesna and James Gimzewski.

I am sorry I have not been posting much lately. We have been on a little break and I went up to San Francisco to visit my precious daughters (and son-in-law Jeff) over Christmas. We are all now back together in at Thubten Dhargye Ling in Long Beach and are getting ready to get back on the road again. We will be up in Placerville, California on Sunday. Here is a link to our tour schedule. We hope to see you all again soon!
