In his work The Message of the Tibetans<\/em>, published in 1966, Arnaud Desjardins described his first meeting, the prior year, with the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, in the old Rumtek monastery in Sikkim,<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_testimonial admin_label=”Temoniage 50 ans” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”572720b5-72ac-4a65-9e3f-d9811ed4046d” body_line_height=”1.6em” border_color_all=”gcid-9b5f26ad-ce0a-4e53-af90-9971f6694090″ border_color_bottom=”gcid-9b5f26ad-ce0a-4e53-af90-9971f6694090″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-9b5f26ad-ce0a-4e53-af90-9971f6694090%22:%91%22quote_icon_color%22,%22border_color_bottom%22,%22border_color_all%22%93}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Gyalwa Karmapa has a strong build with a majestic face and pronounced Mongolian features, which often take on a hieratic, immobile expression that reveals all his mastery and inner power. The day before, I had taken part in an unforgettable ceremony unique to the Karmapa sect, during which the guru dons the Black Crown. [\u2026] The music that accompanies it is the most significant of all that I have heard in Tibetan monasteries. Never before have I so clearly felt the possibilities of consciously desired action in music that responds to the laws of a prodigious science of sounds and their influence on the inner dynamics of the human organism.\u201d When he dons the Black Crown, \u201cThen Karmapa’s expression transforms, and he makes the plane of consciousness on which he is permanently situated dazzling and dazzling to all. His gaze, fixed and directed toward infinity, takes on the depth of a call. It seems that Karmapa’s consciousness, transcending all limits, extends far beyond what we perceive as his physical form, penetrating everything and everyone around him and revealing to those who are ready to recognize it the Unity that is veiled by the unlimited variety of appearances.<\/em>[1]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_css_free_form=”img.inline-zoom {|| transition: transform 0.3s ease;|| display: inline-block;|| vertical-align: middle;|| max-width: 100%;||}||||img.inline-zoom:hover {|| transform: scale(2);|| z-index: 10;||}” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n While filming documentaries for television, Arnaud Desjardins met the Karmapa again in 1967. Then, in 1977, the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa accepted Arnaud Desjardins’ invitation to visit Le Bost, in the commune of Biollet. Together with his wife Denise, Arnaud Desjardins had created an ashram there on the instructions of his master Swami Prajnanpad.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In November 1977, the Karmapa performed\u00a0the Black Crown ceremony there, as he had done at Dhagpo Kagyu Ling in July of the same year.<\/a>\u00a0The\u00a0Crown Whose Vision Confers Liberation<\/em>\u00a0is not only an important physical representation of the qualities of the Karmapas, it is also a means by which these qualities can inspire beings and accomplish their benefit.<\/span><\/p>\n According to an account reported in the second volume of Gerd Bausch’s book on the 16th Karmapa, ritual music recorded in Rumtek in the 1960s by Arnaud Desjardins was played through loudspeakers placed in the windows of the ashram. The Karmapa was staying in the room that would later become Gendun Rinpoche’s. Gerd Bausch continues,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Surprising everyone, he declared that this center would become important in the future for the Karma Kagyu lineage\u2014even though Desjardins was a disciple of the Hindu master Swami Prajnanpad and practiced Adhiyatma Yoga, a practice inspired by Advaita Vedanta. Here too, his words proved prophetic.[2]<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n In\u00a0November 1983<\/strong>, the Desjardins family sold the Bost property to the Karma Kagyu Lama Association,\u00a0paving the way for the first traditional retreats lasting three years,\u00a0<\/a>three months, and three days. In the same book, Eric Edelmann, founder of the Arnaud Desjardins ashram in Quebec, recalls,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n After his departure, Arnaud allowed us to meditate for twenty-four hours in the room where Karmapa had stayed.
