New Video: Long-Life Aspiration for 17th Gyalwang Karmapa

Here is a new video I made with a sample of Karma Kagyu nuns chanting the Long-Life Aspiration Prayer for HH 17th Gyalwang Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje, with Tibetan, phonetics and English (click CC):

The 17th Karmapa has cancelled several teachings citing ill-health and obstacles. This video and chant have been compiled as an offering for his long-life and good health.

May the 17th Karmapa have a long-life, good health, happiness, freedom to travel and elimination of all obstacles!
