Recorded in Mirik Monastery (in the northeastern India) with the total collaboration of Bokar Rimpoche - all the pieces were edited by the filmmaker Guy Maezelle (Bokar Rimpoché : Meditation Master).

Bokar Rimpoche
Acknowledged as a Great Master of Tibetan Buddhism, Bokar Rimpoche (1940-2004) devoted his whole life to meditation. Having fled Tibet in 1959, he lived in exile, isolated in a little monastery in the mountains. The spiritual son of Kalou Rimpoché, a close relation of the Dalai Lama and Meditation Master of the 17th Karmapa, Bokar Rimpoche was the heir and representative of an ancestral knowledge (of the Kagyü line) passed along from generation to generation and holding wisdom that still enlightens us today. These recordings match Guy Maezelle's film Bokar Rimpoche: Maître de méditation and feature sacred chants recorded by Bokar Rimpoche himself and ritual music from the Mirik Monastery (Himalayan Mountains in Northern India, between Bhutan and Nepal).

Therefore it is all beings, without exception, that we should hold dear ! Even without referring to the word of Buddha, this int.......
