We will be welcoming Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17^th Gyalwa Karmapa, for an exceptional five-day visit. Karmapa will be joining us to celebrate the forty years of activity begun by his predecessor, the 16^th Gyalwa Karmapa. Forty years needed to realize the necessary elements for the preservation and diffusion of the Buddha’s teaching in Europe. Receiving Karmapa at this pivotal moment is a source of profound rejoicing for all of us; we are moving from a period of foundation to a time of development. It is an opportunity to express our gratitude to Karmapa and his predecessors, who have preserved the essence of the lineage of practice across the centuries, this universal teaching dedicated to the benefit of all.

Registration

During this type of event, we welcome a large number of visitors; managing the organization of course participants, meals, and lodging is quite a complex operation. The registration system proposed here is detailed, and it offers three important benefits:

• Precise and ethical management of meals in order to avoid food waste, as comestible resources are precious.
• The opportunity to take into account the needs of each, individual visitor.
• A sliding pay scale adjusted for your income, allowing each person to participate financially according to his or her means.
