May this 900th anniversary likewise bring people together, no matter where they live in the world, on a shared spiritual journey. I aspire that you Dharma brothers and sisters, and friends living all over the world, may view from afar the land of our ancestors and the beauty of nature, as our hearts and minds soar freely in flight through the unchanging and unending sky, bringing along our hopes and melodious songs of praise as we call out together in pure and perfect song.

From “Introduction to Karmapa 900” by His Holiness the Seventeenth Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje
