Words are never enough when it comes to conveying appreciation for your being the teacher you are and how much your retreats have meant.
Sending you fervent wishes for a wonderful Birthday, another continuation day, and warmest regards to Allison; and countless blessings ahead for you and all your personal and student family.

Happy birthday Rinpoche! May you continue to inspire us with your diligence and compassion in bringing us, lazy westerners, the authentic Dharma. In this and future lifetimes may we never be seperate from you, our precious lama. And may you continue to bless us with your mind of ocean-like wisdom. I offer perpetual homage to you, respectfully with body, speach, and mind.
With love & devotion,
Cody

Beloved Rinpoche, as is said in the tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh: Happy Continuation Day! I am so fortunate have encountered you in this lifetime; I aspire to practice diligently so that I may abide in the Dharma in all future lifetimes according to your example. Thank you for sharing your precious teachings with us and for continuing the jewel of your lineage here in the West. May you have health and happiness, may every obstacle be overcome, and may you and your teachings ceaselessly flourish.
Maitri, Michelle

Dear Rinpoche, I have so much gratitude for you and that your karma brought you to the West. Because of you and our karma I was introduced to Buddhism in this lifetime. I hope you have a joyous birthday and it is one of many to come. Please continue to turn the wheel of Dharma and guide us silly Westerners back to the correct path. I will attempt with all my heart to follow your teachings and directions in this lifetime and in future lifetimes may we meet again. Love, Nancy

Dear Rinpoche, Happy Birthday, Precious Teacher! Every day that you remain with us on earth is cause for celebration--may this upcoming year be filled with health and happiness for you. I don’t know how to adequately thank you for igniting an insatiable hunger for the Dharma in my life,and for all that you do for every one of us. Since your visit last fall, my mom and my horse have grown ever more content with their ancientness; their presence is a constant reminder of your wisdom, compassion and loving kindness toward all sentient beings. With Gratitude and Love, Clemma
