Karmapa in America ’08 DVDs Now Available

November 9, 2009

Last year, through our joint effort, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje, made his historic first visit to the U.S. He mesmerized audiences across America with his profound and compassionate teachings. Today, November 9, after much anticipation, those incredible teachings are finally available on DVD.

The new site (www.karmapafoundation.org) is now available with full information about the DVDs of the Karmap’s teachings, and links to our online Partner stores where you can pre-order them.

For those who were so fortunate to attend His Holiness Karmapa s precious teachings last year in the U.S., these DVDs will be a lasting reminder of the incredible experience of being in the presence of this young enlightened master. And for those who were not able to attend, the precious teachings His Holiness gave on his first American tour will now be available to everyone.

We hope you are as excited as we are about the release of these videos, which are the only available source of the Karmapa’s historic first public teachings in America. Today, these perfect gifts of Dharma become available to you and your friends. We would be grateful if you could help us communicate to those who may be interested. For more information, please write to info.dvd@karmapafoundation.org.
