Rinpoche sent the following letter and also some handwritten cards to a student and benefactor.

My most dear one,
How are you? I hope things are going well with you regarding receiving investments.

Everybody here has read the Arya Sanghata Sutra, even the dog OM MANI PADME HUM might have read a few words, and dedicated them sincerely to your receiving all the investments that you wish for.

We also recited all together the Padmasambhava prayer Fulfilling spontaneously all the wishes.

I will also read the Golden Light Sutra, and I will check what more can be done. I am also continuing to write the Arya Sanghata Sutra and I dedicate this for my most dear Charles. I will also dedicate water offerings to Dzambala, other pujas, and some other practices to you. My heart is there with you.

Thank you very much. There are no words left to say. I enjoyed staying with you very much, even though it was a very short time. Even though you are so busy, you took care of me, of every single need, and did not forget anything.

It is amazing! Your precious heart, your wish-fulfilling heart.

I was very impressed how you have taken care your of all your workers, the maids and bodyguards. I really saw how you care so much for them, all their needs, where they sleep, and their freedom, totally. One time I came down to eat and I noticed that you smiled at them from your heart, not a political, forced smile, around the nose (left and right side), but a happy smile.

You have really shown care for them and I was amazed to see your good heart. You are such a good model, a good example, and you have helped them to be very good human beings. They care for other beings, and this is from your example, from having lived together for so many years.

My example is just words from the throne. People can be kind and nice for a few days at the very beginning, but then they forget; their anger and emotional mind arises, and they become unpleasant and negative again.

Also, your children, even though I haven’t seen much of them, or been with them for long, seemed to be very well behaved and quiet and enjoy themselves, not wild, crazy, spoiled children. So many rich people in the world and their children are extremely spoiled, very uncontrolled. They become a huge worry for the parents, and the parents don’t know what to do. I think this is because from the beginning they didn’t know how to take care of their children.

I give all my merits to you; whatever virtuous activities I do are all yours.

With BIGGEST love and prayers...
