In addition, you can read about the eagerly awaited inauguration of the Museum of Asian Art and Culture in Arcidosso, in Tuscany, Italy, and how the Museum is being decorated in Tibetan style.
In this issue we present the summer activities and details of planned projects at all the main Gars of the Dzogchen Community across the globe, as well as more extensive information on our Dzogchen Gar in Australia and its regional centers in the ‘Focus on Namgyalgar’ section.
Our artist for this issue is Wilvin Pedersen from Norway who talks about her path as an artist while Alexandru Anton from Merigar East recounts his story of ‘How I Met Chögyal Namkhai Norbu’.
We hope you enjoy the issue!
