Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche’s European Tour 2022

This summer Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche traveled to Europe for the first time in two years. Eagerly awaited, Rinpoche visited Gomde Germany-Austria, Gomde UK and Gomde Pyrenées. All three seminars were a great success with hundreds of students gathered from all around the globe to receive Rinpoche’s profound teachings. Everyone was utterly happy and excited to see Rinpoche again and he put in to motion some amazing activities for the benefit of all. In Gomde Germany-Austria he laid the foundation for an International Buddhist University, in Gomde Pyrenées initiated the first international three year retreat and at Gomde UK at Lindholme Hall continued to bless and support the building a traditional Tibetan Temple.
