I first received teachings from Khenpo in the early 90s at Karme Choling. I hadn't been back there since the Vidyadhara's cremation, and I was feeling bereft. One day we were invited to have an interview with him and when I walked into the Suite I suddenly saw the Vidyadhara--I looked again and it was Khenpo. I blurted out what I had seen and he drew himself up and seemed to become very big and said, "I am Trungpa Rinpoche." It was such a huge and life-changing teaching. He has my eternal gratitude and may we meet again and again.
