With deepest respect, we mourn the passing of Ju Mipham Rinpoche, the father of Thaye Dorje, H.H. 17th Karmapa. The outstanding 3rd Ju Mipham Rinpoche blessed us with his presence during his sojourns in the Diamond Way centers in Europe and we are grateful to him for his teachings.
Our thoughts are with his family.
With profound gratitude,
