A level 8.1 earthquake took place in Nepal at 14:11 on 25 April, 2015. The earthquake originated about 20 kilometers deep. There have been 134 aftershocks and there are almost 10 thousand victims in the tragedy.

Tens of thousands of people were homeless after the earthquake

 The solemn stupa and the busy streets can only be memorized

 The streets are full of debris after the earthquake

        When our venerable Lodroe Nyima Rinpoche heard this bad news, his feeling was as hard as the victims. He then immediately organized a puja to pray for the casualties of the disaster. He also worried about the safety of our venerable Thrangu Rinpoche. When he got the visa, Rinpoche soon travelled to Nepal to offer help and contribution.

 When our venerable Lodroe Nyima Rinpoche reached Nepal, he rushed to the tent to visit our venerable Thrangu Rinpoche. Karmapa Chenno! 

The Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery was seriously damaged by the earthquake, fortunately all the monks were unharmed, Amitabha!

The magnificient Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery in the past

Everything is uncertain!

The Monastery was seriously damaged

Comparing the solemn Tara Temple in the past, now even the Buddha is not bear to look!

        On 13 May, Rinpoche came back to China safely. Karmapa Chenno!

       The Buddha teaches us, there are always uncertainties even with thousands of methods in the world. Only when we have wisdom we can reach the shore of Bodhi sooner.

       Let us pray for the casualties of the earthquake. We wish the survivors can free themselves from fear and cheer themselves up to rebuild their homes.
