Visit by Men-Tsee-Khang, Tibetan Medical and Astro-science Institute

tour hosted by Drogmi Buddhist Institute
24-29 August 2019

The Men-Tsee-Khang Medical and Astro-science team arrived at Kamalashila Tibetan Buddhist Centre late August this year from Dharmsala India. Doctor Dolma and Ms Tsundue gave very informative talks on their specialties and conducted consultations for two days. 

Then visiting Dr Dolma and Ms Tsundue and the administrative team visited Bega, NSW to run a program, a Public Talk and more consultations with the local community. It was a lovely day for everyone in attendance.

Khenpo-la joined Dr Dolma-la and Astrologer Tsundue-la, and support team for a lovely lunch overlooking the beautiful ocean and Gulaga Mountain. Dolphins played in the water below. This was the final day on the South Coast for the team after a very successful program. The visiting Medical and Astro team travelled up to Sydney, sharing a very delicious breakfast with Khenpo-la before departing Tilba. 

There was a stop at Nowra to see some patients organised by the local Tibetan Community. The community’s President Phurbu Tsering and family hosted a wonderful luncheon for everyone. Finally, onto Sydney, with a quick stop at the harbour to complete a very full yet wonderful day.

The Men-Tsee-Khang team were based at the Vajrayana Institute, giving consultations and a Public Talk. The event was very well received and attended, with many requests for a return visit soon. The knowledge and expertise of these practitioners is very gratefully received. Thank you to Geshe-la, the committee at Vajrayana Institute and all the sangha there for being so hospitable and welcoming for Drogmi Buddhist Institute to run this Sydney part of the Men-Tsee-Khang tour from their beautiful centre.
