After many months of devoted effort by NPDC volunteers, the transformation of Nyingma Palyul Dharma Center into a true Buddhist temple is nearing completion! To mark the official opening of NPDC, His Eminence Khentrul Gyangkhang Rinpoche will kindly grace us with his presence in leading the temple consecration ceremony (Rabne) and bestow the empowerment of Rigdzin Dupa. In addition, we will hold a Grand Opening Dinner with cultural performances and a variety show. Please join us in celebrating the culmination of everyone’s collective efforts in making His Holiness Penor Rinpoche’s vision of establishing a permanent Palyul center in New York City a reality.
