Past Updates about Lama Osel

Updated October 7, 2004

In June Lama Osel finished the school year at a top international boarding school. Osel successfully graduated from Grade 12 and has now begun the new academic year at an International College in Europe.

After more than 10 years of Tibetan studies Osel found the experience very helpful.

Osel expressed great appreciation and thanks for all that everyone has done to ensure that his Tibetan and Western education has to date been the best possible.

At this time, Osel feels it vitally important for him to spend more time pursuing his western education.

However since for the time being that means he is not in Sera, Osel feels it is not appropriate that financial support be raised in the same way as previously.

Fortunately, funding for this stage of Lama Osel's continuing education has already been secured.

For the time being therefore, we have decided that until Lama returns to Sera to continue Tibetan studies, we will suspend the Lama Osel Education Fund.

Thank you to everyone for your support and generosity and for all you have done to date - it really has been so helpful.
