A few years later (2022) I met Wangchen Rinpoche & Kalu Rinpoche and there was an instant Karmic connection. Since then I made the aspiration to move to Ser Cho Ling and take my Monk vows and in 2 years time, this opportunity came to fruition. I now reside at Ser Cho Ling as a Novice Monk and administrator for the center.
