Clouds of Offerings to Delight the Bodhisattva
གོ་ཤྲི་དཔལ་འབྱོར་དོན་གྲུབ་ཀྱི་ལོ་རྒྱུས།
by Zeeche Leethong
with short biography by Mikyö Dorje

The first Gyaltsab Goshri Paljor Dondrub, was a heart son of the Sixth Karmapa Thongwa Dondhen and the root guru of the Seventh Karmapa Chodrak Gyatso. Therefore, he is also included in the Golden Rosary of the Karma Kagyu lineage. The biography of Goshri Paljor Dondrub, titled Clouds of Offerings to Delight the Bodhisattva, was meticulously researched and composed by Zeeche Leethong. This work not only covers the life of Goshir Paljor Dhondub but also contains significant historical information related to the Karma Kagyu tradition. Therefore, we have made this e-Book and published it to coincide with the 600th anniversary of the Gyaltsab lineage.

Foreword by the Karmapa:

The supreme victor, the glorious Sixth Karmapa Thongwa Dondhen’s chief spiritual son, the all-knowing victor, the great Nyewowa, Goshir Rinpoche Paljor Dhondup, not only stands as the inaugural figure in the line of successive Drungpa Gyaltsabs but is also honored in the golden rosary of the essence lineage. His immense kindness has profoundly benefited this precious lineage in both spiritual and temporal matters. On this momentous occasion, commemorating over 600 years since the birth of this protector of beings, a historian blessed with keen insight, Zeeche Leethong, has thoroughly explored Goshir Rinpoche’s life and published this insightful work. I have the pleasure of bestowing upon it the title: Clouds of Offerings to Delight the Bodhisattva. With that, I offer my auspicious prayer that it will serve as a key to unlock the rich history of Kamtsang in general and the biographies of the successive Gyaltsabs in particular.
