On the afternoon of June 9, 2026, Guru Vajradhara His Holiness Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa visited Pullahari Monastery, the monastic seat of Jamgön Kongtrul Rinpoche, the charioteer of “The Five Treasuries.” The monastery's leadership, monastic assembly, and the multitude of faithful monastics and lay devotees who had gathered from all directions welcomed him with an elaborate traditional golden procession and escorted him to the temple housing the golden reliquary stupa of the previous Jamgön Rinpoche.

A mandala and the three sacred representations were offered to Guru Vajradhara, along with ceremonial tea and sweet rice, after which he spent some time in relaxed conversation in Jamgön Rinpoche's audience room. He then retired to his quarters on the upper floor of the Rigpe Dorje Institute for rest.

On the following day, Guru Vajradhara bestowed the reading transmission of “The Mahamudra Aspiration Prayer” and the empowerment of Hayagriva, Vajrapani, and Garuda Combined, together with teachings and guidance on what to adopt and what to avoid, upon the monastery's tulkus, khenpos, lamas, monastic assembly, and the many thousands of faithful monastics and lay devotees who had traveled especially from Tibet, the Himalayan regions, and various countries abroad, filling the interior and exterior spaces on every floor of the main temple.

On June 11, in the Mahamudra Temple, Guru Vajradhara granted a special audience and teaching to the monastery's leadership and the entire assembly of monastics and students.

On the morning of June 12, before departing from Pullahari Monastery, Guru Vajradhara visited Kunzang Dechen Osel Ling, the monastic seat's Mahamudra retreat center, where he bestowed special instructions and guidance upon those preparing to enter the traditional three-year retreat.
