Martha Bonzi died yesterday, October 29, shortly before midnight at the age of 89. For decades, during Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche’s life and continuing after his passing, Martha has been an extremely generous patron of the dharma. Her generosity enabled Naropa University, the Halifax Shambhala Centre, Gampo Abby, the Nalanda Translation Committee, as well as many many smaller initiatives, to thrive. With kindness, precision and selfless dedication, Martha was the great patron for all aspects of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche’s world. We can never repay her generosity.
