McLeod Ganj (Dharamsala) is a wonderful Himalayan mountain station with a strong Tibetan Buddhist influence, due to the Dalai Lama's presence which has attracted thousands of Tibetan refugees. The place has a soft and gentle atmosphere, and it is hard to be in a hurry here.
One of our group members had to leave early to attend to his dying father, and he made it home with only fifteen minutes to say goodbye. We asked the monks of Tse Chok Ling Monastery to perform a special ceremony in honour of the deceased in their marvellous Tara Temple. This puja allows the soul the support to make the best possible transition to the next life. What an amazing feeling to have been able to be present to the beautiful intentions of all these monks here in McLeod Ganj, while meditating at a distance with our dear friend who was sitting with us thousands of kilometers away. Such is the power of the spirit of love.
