Dear Paper Lovers and Friends of Khandroling Papers,
We are now functioning independently from the Dzogchen Community with the primary mission of continuing in our Sacred paper commitment after an absence of a number of years due to personal health and Covid restrictions.
These papers are made with the permission of Choegyal Namkhai Norbu as an alternative to burning text fragments in the Tibetan lineages. I was also inspired by the Jewish tradition of storing scraps of the Torah in a special room--genizah, also spelled geniza (Hebrew: “hiding place”), plural genizot, genizoth, or genizahs, in Judaism, a repository for timeworn sacred manuscripts and ritual objects, generally located in the attic or cellar of a synagogue.
Over the years we began to add sacred substances to our burnable texts including the following amazing gifts from Choegyal Namkhai Norbu, Lama Wangdor via Barbara and Woody Paprazzo, Lama Tsultrim Allione, Constance Wilkinson, Dr, Trogawa Rinpoche, my self and others.
Substances included: COMING SOON!
A number of projects emerged from the Sacred papermaking process including mantra pendants, Unique prayer wheels, Calligraphic inspired painting, wood block prints and inspired uses in the works.
Some of our Highlights from 2012-2019:
Milan Rei - onsite Butterfly installation--Nepali Peace activist
Tashi Mannox - Tibetan Calligraphy course with foremost Western Calligrapher
