Contact is taking a break after 25 years of bringing you news of Tibet and Tibetan issues. We are celebrating our 25 years by bringing you the story of Contact and the people who have made it happen, and our archive is still there for you to access at any time, and below you can read the story of Contact, how it came into being and the wonderful reflections of the people who have made it happen over the years.
When and how Contact will re-emerge and evolve will be determined by those who become involved.
COVID-19 restrictions have forced the closure of prayer halls and monasteries but according to Geshe Ngawang Norbu the near 94,000 Tibetans in India are using the time “to introspect and reflect”. The official at Sera Jey Monastery, Bylakuppe goes on to add that in the absence of physical classes Tibetan monks “are utilising this time to study more” and “are conducting some lessons online and exchanging notes”.
