Congratulating the New Khamba Lama of Mongolia
His Holiness the Dalai Lama has sent a letter of congratulations to Geshé Jetsun Dorji (Javzandorj-Жавзандорж), the newly elected Khambo Lama of Gandantegchinlen monastery, the center of Buddhism in Mongolia.
His Holiness pointed out in his letter that the Dharma has the potential to bring about positive changes in the world if we take advantage of the opportunity to learn and practice it.
He further noted that when giving Buddhist teachings, it is essential to consider the aptitude and inclination of those being instructed.
In a different correspondence to the retiring Gabju Choijamts Demberel, the Khambo Lama, His Holiness praised him for his efforts in propagating a way of understanding the Buddha’s teachings based on studying, thinking over what was learned, and meditating on what was comprehended.
