After finishing the manuscript for his latest book, "Being Useful", Lama Ole travelled from the Gold Coast to Brisbane to inaugurate the Gompa (meditation room) of the new Brisbane Diamond Way Buddhist Group.
Lama Ole, Caty and a group of almost 50 students squeezed themselves into the newly renovated gompa to meditate together and invoke enlightened energies to create a perfect space to meditate.
