I took refuge with Lama Geshe Konshok early December 1988 at Kopan monastery near Boudha, Kathmandu, Nepal. I had been encouraged to take refuge by the great Kalu Rinpoche, who I encountered twice before he passed away in 1989, and while training at Kopan monastery I took the opportunity to take refuge with Geshe Lama Konshok. His yogic prowess impressed me deeply. Only many years later did I realise that he was as much trained in the Drukpa Kargyud tradition as he was in the Gelug tradition which he officially represented - an he spent most of his time in caves meditating far away from habitations. +
