My dear Jackie,
I hope you are well. I enjoyed very much meeting your mother and you, I liked her very much.

I am very happy, inspired and excited by this land you found and very grateful to the couple who are offering it. We need a lot of merit to use this land for the Dharma, so we need to make this statue of thousand-arm Chenrezig nine feet high. I don’t want you to faint at the height. I know you may not be familiar with my sizes, sorry. But this will be of unbelievable benefit for your country, to develop compassion, through nyung-näs and Chenrezig retreats. I think it will be so good. OK? We can keep talking if you like.

Much love and prayer...
