Lha hosted a group of people from the United States led by Neil Guidry and composed of Lha founders and Advisory Board members. The group – referred to as the “Hospice group” – was accommodated at Lha’s Ahimsa House, staying with us for just over one week.
The “Hospice group” consisted of eight participants from different walks of life. During their stay with us, they were keen to learn about Tibetan culture and traditions, as well as Tibetan Buddhism and Medicine. They explored places of interest around Dharamshala including Tso Pema, or Lotus Lake, and Bir.
Dr. Yeshi Dorjee, Head of the Tibetan Medical and Astro Institute, Mcleod Branch, spoke to the group on Tibetan medicine and its practices; following his talk the group participated in a lively discussion.
The Lha family is very grateful to the group for being part of the exchange programme and for their continuous support.
