Appearances, sounds and awareness are deities, mantras and the sphere of Dharmakaya. Spreading forth infinitely as the display of kayas and primordial wisdom. Within the practice of the great profound and secret yoga, May these be indivisible and of one taste within the innermost essence of mind. 

- Choegyal Tendak Lingpa (1646 - 1714)

Her Eminence Mindrolling Jetsun Khandro Rinpoche created the calligraphies while in Nova Scotia at Dorje Denma Ling Retreat Centre in Tatamagouche. The calligraphies were created as a fundraiser for King's View Academy shortly after the school opened in 2000. It is now, 14 years later, after having moved to a new location in downtown Halifax, that we have the proper venue to showcase the calligraphies and are offering them for auction as part of a major fundraising campaign for the school. The red seal on each of the calligraphies is the personal seal of Chogyal Terdag Lingpa passed down to Jetsun Khandro Rinpoche through generations of lineage holders.
