Coinciding with the Saga Dawa Duechen and the coronation day of the Fourth Druk Gyelpo, LME students took part in the tree-planting program with Chokyi Gyatso Institute lamas and students. We have planted some 500 native saplings in and around the institute.
The plantation is a part of Rinpoche’s ongoing Bhumisparsha initiative to plant 84000 trees worldwide. This is a short excerpt from Rinpoche’s message to Bhumisparsha, “Let’s carry on celebrating the Buddha’s most trusted witness by continuing to ‘touch the earth’ and by giving something back. You could plant a tree or arrange for a tree to be planted for you.”
