Four people took refuge on February 20, 2021. The event took place at Alton Baker Park and complied with CDC guidelines. 

On February 12, 2021, Tulku Jigme Rinpoche led a Losar celebration which expressed the joy of the occasion while still maintaining CDC guidelines.

Dear everyone,  
Losar Tashi Delek,
At the beginning of the lunar year of the iron ox, I, along with all of the members of the Palmo Center for Peace
​ and education, wish you a very happy Tibetan New Year, 2148.

We send this wish with heartfelt prayers and aspirations that each one of you enjoy a healthy, happy, prosperous, and wonderful 2021.

As a practitioner, amongst everything else one may wish for, may this year bring continued effort, joyous enthusiasm, and tremendous progress along the path of the dharma. May the three jewels continue to protect and shower blessings in your mind stream to realize the two Bhodichittas.

With love and prayers,

Jigme Rinpoche and all the members of the Palmo Center
