BRATTLEBORO -- There will be a special showing of the film, "Blessings" about the Tsoknyi Nangchen Nuns of Tibet on Sunday, Nov. 22, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the SIT Graduate Institute, Rotch Learning Center, Room 108, 1 Kipling Road, in Brattleboro.

Narrated by Richard Gere, the video explores the unique world of the nuns who study under Tsoknyi Rinpoche’s guidance. Their lives are seen through the eyes of the western women who accompanied Tsoknyi Rinpoche to Nangchen and are attempting to make their own link with the often strange, but hauntingly familiar, world of Tibetan Buddhism.

For further information, contact Michelle Bos Lun PIM with Monadnock Friends of Tibet at 802-732-7016 or Elisabeth Yesko MAT 40 at 802-246-7253.
