Be part of creating a Refuge Tree for Olmo Ling
Tempa Lama would like to invite you to be part of his dream of creating a Refuge Tree Thangka painting for Olmo Ling temple. The Refuge Tree is a powerful depiction of the blessing of our awakened nature, the awakened masters, and the blessings of the deities and protectors. For many years, Tempa Lama has had the dream to commission an artist to create a large, beautiful Refuge Tree Thangka painting that will permanently reside in our temple and offer our community inspiration, blessings, and refuge. During his recent visit to Asia, he identified a wonderful Bon Thangka painter in Kathmandu (Nepal) who has begun work on our Refuge Tree. The painting will be 36”x50” large. It will be the centerpiece on the main wall that we face when entering the temple.
We invite you to be part of the creation of the Refuge Tree. Read more…
