Lama Zopa Rinpoche
Our Teachers
Karen Chin
"The greatest lesson I have gained from the Liberation Prison Project programme is one of PATIENCE. And I am happy for patience is something we all need in our spiritual practice. In my 15 months with LPP, I have written letters month after month but have only received one precious letter from my pen pal. I often imagine how my pen pal is in the cell. Sometimes, I even wonder if he is still there. With faith in the triple gem, I continued to write.
"When the first letter came, it was like a miracle. It was clear that he was just as happy as we are to be each other's spiritual friend. I read this much valued letter each time I prepare to pen a letter. It taught me how to cherish the moment he wrote that one letter for now we do not know if he has another opportunity.
"Today, as with the many other days before, I wait patiently for the second letter."
Karin writes to Robin Gurung, Bangkwang, Thailand.
