Tokden Rinpoche has graciously accepted our request to give a series of Vajrayana initiations and teachings at Jewel Heart Ann Arbor. He is one of a handful of the great living Gelugpa masters educated in old Tibet who is available to give us these initiations. He is one of the lamas specifically invited by Gelek Rimpoche to give initiations at Jewel Heart. His first visit to Jewel Heart was at the 1993 Summer Retreat.
