The Founder and director of the Organization
As any of you know who have visited the Center, Ven. Donyo never sits still, never gets to finish a meal and is constantly on the telephone. His desk is covered with papers. He sits in an office with several computers, fax machines, copiers and high speed internet connections. Dealing with monks, monasteries, embassies, Dharma students, friends from the Tibetan community and utility bills, as well as requests for tours, blessings and CDs, Ven. Donyo is a whirlwind of activity. He also does all the shopping as he is the only monk who is fluent in English and who can drive. Ven. Jampa Thaye, one of the senior monks, wanted me to tell you that Ven. Donyo is also very special as he has three beds, and the other monks only have one. Besides his regular bed, Ven. Donyo often falls asleep in his chair, in his office and on the couch going over paperwork. The monks say that Ven. Donyo is frequently up until 2 or 3 o’clock in the morning! He always thinks big because he often says the America is the land of opportunity and one needs to think big.
