His Holiness arrived in Dhagpo Kagyu Ling, his main seat in Europe, on August 14, for a five-day programme.

He continued his commentary of the second chapter of the Bodhicarya-Avatara, on the confession and purification of negative actions (karma).

To prepare for the presence of the Gyalwa Karmapa, the Dhagpo Lamas performed the Gyalwa Gyamtso practice (Red Tchenrezi) during five days. His Holiness took part in the ritual on the last day of the accumulation.
