The following is from a series of tweets by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo:
Hello all! I’ve now got my blackberry replaced. It died from a coffee spill. RIP li’l feller.
Now at my destination I am resting and will soon begin retreat in earnest. All has been travel, stay overs, re-connecting with the people of Palyul — so good.
Now resting, study, practice.I will be back eventually, when it is safe, I’m healthier, and justice is finally done. I look forward to returning home. Grateful for the love and care I have been shown.
Photos newly dug up are now available. At last the splendor of Palyul is here for all!I have so much to share with you! Ancient stories, teachings, modern from the heart teachings too. Slowly, one step at a time.
I’ve asked my students to keep up with the Occupy DC movement, and to help them. For now, hearty Tibetan soup, called tukpa with barley dough balls. Best food there is. Can we get more support to feed vegetarians please? And boiled eggs always help. Plus fresh fruit and coffee!
Here I am treated like a queen. And want to be sure all are treated so well.
My back is pretty messed up so I have to stay off my feet some, and walk with sticks some. I must conquor this pain!
But in every other way it’s all good. I’m so much less stressed not having to look over my shoulder to see if I’m being followed. This is pure bliss and peace here. And inspiring too. It feels like a whole new chapter of life, at least my life is about to begin. I just need the opportunity that comes with safety and Bodhicitta, and will do all I can for sentient beings. That is all that matters to me. To postulate about Dharma is useless. To bring the love is without question the way to awakening and peace!
OM MANI PEDME HUNG!
I love you, precious Jetsunma and am glad of your safe position with Palyul. Thank you for the beautiful teachings. Your devoted student, Hesper
p.s. So grateful to be a part of OccupyDC with the tukpa recipe
