Today we had a “special” meal cooked by Khenpo’s friend, an outgoing Tibetan lady. She tells me she doesn’t meditate, but is sure it’s very easy. On the other hand, she’s heard stories (friend’s mom’s dog’s sister) of monks who have gone mad during retreat.

The special dish is beef soup. There’s also a veg version, but surprisingly enough, only 3 of the 10 attendees opt for it. Khenpo only does because HH has said he should. Lama loves meat though, which surprises me.
