Dorje Ling Buddhist Centers

Dear Dharma Brothers and Sisters, It is with great sadness that our New York Dharma Center and Director, Alice Ting, has passed away. She was a fierce Dakini, and protector of the Dharma. She was to many of us a close friend and advisor, and many times a corrector. She was kind, with an open heart. She was skilled and magical in accomplishing things that were very difficult in regard to her motivation and love for the Dharma. She was preceded in death by her loving siste...r, Suzan Ting, 3 years ago. Together they did many acts of service to provide what was needed to provide teachings, practice, and fund raisers, at our New York Dharma Center. Her love for her teachers, and the Dharma was profound. She will be missed by many. May she rest in Dakiniland.
