Rinpoche made the following comments to his attendant regarding hosting His Holiness the Dalai Lama on land owned by the FPMT Maitreya Project in Bodhgaya, during the period that His Holiness was giving the Kalachakra initiation in Bodhgaya.

Offering service to His Holiness is actually offering service directly to Maitreya Buddha himself.
