To His Eminence Gankar Rinpoche, the lamp of the Dharma and sublime spiritual guide,

With salutations and great joy we have learned that Your Eminence has been appointed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama as Gyuto Monastery’s LamaUmzey (Assistant Abbot). All the center members and Rinpoche’s students wish to extend our sincere congratulations. Upon ascending the great throne of Gyuto LamaUmzey, may Rinpoche follow the footsteps of the prior throne holders and like the rising moon, may rinpoche’s holy activities of preserving dharma and benefiting sentient beings rise and grow without limit. May we the students remain in Rinpoche’s kind care and be blessed with the shower of dharma teachings.

With prostrations,

Khacholing Center
