Kopan Family celebrates Birthday with Lama
Lama celebrated his 4th birthday anniversary on 28 Oct 06, at Kopan with hundreds of Sanghas and few Western friends in the dining hall. It was a great day for him especially to get along with young monks at his house which he enjoyed a lot. Normally Lama doesn’t like to leave his house and gives us a big “No, No” when he was asked to, but that day lama himself insisted to go out to celebrate and he was unusually quite and peaceful in front of many people which shocked us all.
Lama cut the cake and about 15 little monks offered a birthday song, followed by a tea party to all the participants.
On the same day we received many calls and SMS from Singapore wishing Lama la a very happy birthday and that lama have long life and grow up soon. Students from Singapore did 1.1 Million Animal liberation for lama’s long life. We should thank Fred Chong and his friends those who organized this ceremony. Fred Chong is the one who started this Animal Liberation while late Geshe Lama Konchog was ill in Singapore. I am glad that Fred is still carrying on the wonderful job. I truly believe that his dedication and hard work will help in bringing prosperity and long life of all the Gurus, especially H.H the Dalai Lama, Lama Zopa Rinpoche and all other gurus along with Tenzin Phuntsok Rinpoche. I hope Lama TPR will grow up soon and benefit all sentient beings.
On behalf of Lama, I would like to extant my sincere thanks to all the friends who supported and volunteered in making the function a fascinating one.
