Rinpoche heard about a nunnery that would not accept a money offering for a puja they were doing because the benefactor had been a big donor to FPMT. Rinpoche sent this message to the nuns.

I heard about this and I appreciate very much the nuns’ kindness, their thought to not take a money offering from that person who is helping many FPMT projects so much.

Doing this at this time, when her mother has passed, would make her so pleased. To appreciate somebody’s kindness is so good; that is really, really very good, most worthwhile, and also because she is fulfilling my wishes for many projects, not only helping the nunnery.

After she heard the nuns were offering this puja, she said she would make a large offering to the nunnery. She was so happy and touched.

Thank you very much for your good heart practice. That makes it easier to achieve enlightenment for sentient beings. Thank you.

With much love and prayers ...
