Update about Osel for the FPMT Annual Review 2006

Ven. Roger Kunsang gave the following update about Osel for the 2006 FPMT Annual Review:

In September, we had a surprise visit from Osel. He suddenly appeared in Aptos, California at Lama Zopa Rinpoche's house - actually, he was on summer vacation. We spent a few days together, and Osel spent a lot of time talking with Rinpoche about Dharma and his experiences of the last few years. He also met some of Lama Yeshe's older students, and stayed with Karuna Cayton.

Osel said he was awed by Rinpoche's house, and the "vibe of the holy objects." In conversation with me he said "I am creating my world, FPMT is doing well creating its world, later we will merge my world and FPMT."

Osel was very happy with the visit, and so were we, especially Rinpoche; we all felt we connected again.

Osel's parting advice to me with a hug was "No matter what bad things people say or do to you... just give love!"
