He remained there for the next 8 years studying meditation and the principle topics of the Buddha Dharma as presented in the Tibetan Tradition under the guidance of Drupon Khen Rinpoche (Karma Lhabu).In 2023 he returned to Canada to look after his elderly parents, and is currently establishing a meditation retreat in the Northern Gulf Islands of British Columbia.
