On the afternoon of June 20, 2026, Guru Vajradhara His Holiness Chamgon Kenting Tai Situpa visited Neydo Tashi Chöling in Yangleshö (Pharping), a monastery founded by the late seventh Khedrub Karma Chagme. Guru Vajradhara was welcomed with an elaborate traditional golden procession by the monastery's leadership, monastic assembly, and devoted followers who had gathered from various regions, and was escorted into the main temple. After paying homage to the sacred representations and taking his seat upon the throne, he was offered a mandala and the three sacred representations, followed by the serving of ceremonial tea and sweet rice.

Following this, Guru Vajradhara bestowed upon the assembly the reading transmission of the “Dorje Chang Thungma,” also known as “The General Supplication to the Dagpo Kagyu Lineage,” together with concise pith instructions on the stages of the path. He also spoke about the pure samaya and Dharma connection between his predecessors and the previous incarnations of Khedrub Karma Chagme, and offered guidance and advice. He then performed a consecration ceremony for the monastery's outer structures and inner sacred representations, including its principal image, and concluded the visit by offering aspirations for the flourishing of the Buddha's teachings and the welfare of all beings, after which he departed for Tergar Osel Ling.

On the following morning, Guru Vajradhara and his entourage were seen off by several hundred monastic and lay devotees, including representatives of Kagyu monasteries in Nepal and other affiliated organizations, before returning safely to New Delhi, the capital of India.
