AUDIENCES AND EMPOWERMENTS IN BODHGAYA
​January 2024

Photographs captured by The Private Office of The Dalai Lama during the private audience between His Holiness the Great 14th Dalai Lama and Kyabgon Sakya Gongma Trichen Dorjichang, the 42nd Sakya Trizin, the 43rd Sakya Trizin, Dungsey Akasha Vajra Rinpoche, Jetsunma Kunga Trinley Palter, Jetsunma Kunga Chimey Wangmo, Gyalyum Tashi Lhakee, Dagmo Kalden Sakya, and attendants of Kyabgon Sakya Gongma Rinpoche recently in early 2024 in Bodhgaya.

​While the empowerments and transmissions at the Bodhgaya Sakya Monastery Triyana Dharma Chakra Vihar continue, on this day, the 4th day of the 12th lunar month of the Tibetan calendar, we also commemorate the Parinirvana of one of the greatest Sakya masters of our time, His Eminence Chogye Trichen Rinpoche, the 25th throne holder of the Tsarpa branch of the Sakya school.
