As another year comes to an end, we at the Ripa Ladrang Foundation wish you a wonderful Holiday Season and New Year. The holidays provide an excellent opportunity for reflection and gratitude. We would like to thank each of you for your generous support through the years and especially in 2020.

As an organization, we have experienced many positive changes this year including numerous teaching tours by each of our three Masters. You will be receiving a comprehensive President’s Letter for the year 2020 shortly after our upcoming Losar celebration. Alan Goldstein, President of Ripa Ladrang Foundation, will outline details of our accomplishments for this past year as well as define the challenges and priorities that lie ahead.

Our founder, His Eminence Terton Namkha Drimed Rabjam Rinpoche has always characterized the purpose of the Ripa Ladrang Foundation with one word…Virtue. Our core mission is the preservation of Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism; the teachings and activities of His Eminence and the Ripa Lineage Buddhist Masters; humanitarian aid to communities in need and the preservation of Tibetan culture and arts. Through your generosity, the foundation has been able to accomplish a great deal this year.

We encourage you to join or renew your membership to the foundation for 2021 before December 31, 2020.
