Journey to the West, with Chinese subtitles 

"Journey to the West" celebrates the 30th anniversary of Sakya Monastery of Tibetan Buddhism in Seattle. In 1984, H.H. Dagchen Rinpoche established Sakya Monastery to preserve and share Tibetan Buddhist culture and religion. Sakya Monastery has grown and flourished as a result of H.H. Dagchen Rinpoche's leadership and the dedicated support of a community of volunteers. Using archival footage and video interviews, this film chronicles the remarkable history of this center, highlighting in particular, the vision and leadership of H.H. Jigdal Dagchen Sakya, the dedication and support of H.E. Dagmo Kusho as well as the contributions of master craftsman John Vichorek and master artist Dhawa Dhundup Ngoche.
