Tai Situ Rinpoche spoke about the situation and requested as many prayers as possible. He said that the mo came out extremely bad.

It's not surprising. He is 90 years old. Impermanence. No one lives forever. Not even Buddhas.
Pure because purity has always been a nonexistence.

Re: Prayers for Thrangu Rinpoche.
He’s had a rich Dharma life and done so much fantastic stuff. Pointing Out The Dharmakaya is one of my top meditation volumes, it really helped me. I’ll do some practice for him. Whichever way things though go I’m happy we was around doing his thing, and I hope he either hangs around for a few years or comes back soon.
Don’t you see what’s wrong with the world today? Oh Everybody wants somebody to be their own piece of clay.

Re: Prayers for Thrangu Rinpoche.
Sorry to hear he is so ill. I received many empowerments from him, and his books have been a constant source of information and instruction.
At 90 though, he has led a long and fruitful life and I'm sure there few as prepared for their end as he undoubtedly is.
May his activity and those of his successors contain to bring great benefit.

A good reminder to do my Medicine Buddha practice today!! This amazing man literally wrote the book on that subject.

Re: Prayers for Thrangu Rinpoche.
Great news. I've been doing White Tara for him for a few days now. I got many major empowerments from him. One the last of the Buxa generation that established TBism outside of Tibet.
