In order to pay his respects to Her Majesty, the late Ashi
Phuntso Choden Wangchuck, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa,
Trinlay Thaye Dorje, paid a visit to the Kingdom of Bhutan
from October 6th to October 15th.
On August 24th, 2003, the Grand Queen Mother, Her Majesty
Ashi Phuntsho Choden Wangchuck, passed away at her retreat
place Dechenchholing Gonpa close to Bhutan’s capital Thimphu.
Her remains, the Kudung, were kept there for a period of 49
days and rituals were performed. Shortly after her demise,
H. H. Kunzig Shamar Rinpoche had visited Bhutan for a few
days to pay his respects and to join in the rituals.
H. H. the Gyalwa Karmapa cancelled his other programs and
travelled to Bhutan for the same reason. He arrived at Paro
airport on October 6th and was received in the ceremonial
lounge by Dasho Sangye Wangchuck, the Secretary for Cultural
and Religious affairs, the Governor of Paro and his deputy,
and the Ven. Lam Neten, that is to say the District Head Lama
of Paro representing His Holiness the Je Khenpo.
