Buddha House is delighted to have Venerable Thubten Gyatso (previously Dr Adrian Feldmann) this Sunday afternoon. Ven. Gyatso is an Australian monk for more than 30 years, and one of the senior students of Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa Rinpoche. He has just finished a three year retreat at Kangaroo Island.

This is a great opportunity for ‘older’ students to catch up with him and for newer students to make a first connection. Ven. Gyatso sees it as a way to say ‘hi’ to all of you. Please bring a plate of vegetarian food to share if you join us for lunch.

You can read Ven. Gyatso’s life story in the book Spiritual Friends (page 119), which you can find by google search, and read on-line. An article about his retreat can be found here www.bendigoadvertiser.com.au/news/local/news/general/gyatsos-retreats-to-island-cavern/415796.aspx
