Lama Lhundrup at Dharmapala CollegeIn March the Dharmapala College hosted Lama Lhundrup where he lead study on Gampopa's Jewel Ornament of Liberation. He has posted an account of his time in Birmingham on his blog, including some photographs. Lama Lhudrup is from the Karma Kargyu lineage. He received his monastic ordination in 1991 after several years of closed retreat. He lives in Dhagpo Kundreul Ling monastery in Auvergne, France.

Lama Lhundrup says that he found the exchanges fruitful, especially the comparisons between the his Tibetan tradition, with the Pali texts which are often more familiar to Order Members. There are a number of possible opportunities for cooperation, for instance Lama Lhundrup hopes to travel to India with Subhuti to see the TBMSG activities and Order Members may wish to undertake long retreats at his monastery where supervises the regular three year retreats.
