Jamyang Coventry News
Ven. Dawa was ordained as a full monk (Gelong) by His Holiness the Dalai Lama on Feb. 18th this year in McLeod Gange, Dharamsla India.
He has now returned from Pilrimage and will be leading the new Spring program at Jamyang Coventry.
A Message from Lama Zopa Rinpoche
Lama Zopa arrived in McLoed Gange shortly after the ordination, Ven. Dawa requested a blessing for Jamyang Coventry; in response Rinpoche wrote us a detailed letter of encouragement. Here are a few extracts, the full letter can be read at the centre and copies are available on request.
Hello My Dear Students of Jamyang Center/Study Group,
Whose life goal is to achieve enlightenment and to liberate all sentient beings from the ocean of samsara and to bring them to full enlightenment. Because of that, life becomes most beneficial. “All sentient beings” means also for yourself.
I’m very happy that your hearts are open to look for a new path, new happiness, Dharma happiness. Especially for ultimate happiness and liberation from samsara and full enlightenment.

........ So Tibetan Buddhism is complete, is what the Buddha taught. So you can see now how it is a miracle of miracles we have met Tibetan Buddhism which includes all the teachings and the path. So all of you are most fortunate beings.
Your teacher, Geshe Tashi, is a great teacher who has studied well so you have all the conditions AND a teacher who can explain well.
So deeply from my heart, with palms together, I sincerely request all of you please to study and meditate as much as you can. But don’t only study for intellectual understanding, but as much as you possibly can, study to put the Dharma into practice in your daily life.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Much love and prayers to all of you who are coming now and who are coming in the future.
Lama Zopa Rinpoche
