Construction begins on Nyala Pema Duddul Stupa after Lama Tsultrim has three dreams in one night of him appearing to her and telling her to build a stupa. She had little knowledge of the great Dzogchen master who took the rainbow body in 1872, before the dreams. Tulku Sang-ngag helped with all the stages and rituals connected to building it over the next four years.

The first Retreat Cabin, Dragon’s Nest, is built on Lama Tsultrim and David’s land adjoining Tara Mandala, assembled in a parking lot, and helicoptered into its permanent location.
