Sangyal has a serious spinal problem which has kept him from joining the monks in the meditation hall - he needs cat scans and western technology rather than Tibetan pills. As his teacher the retired Great Chantmaster of Gyuto Lobsang Tsering says, he is a bright monk with a keen intellect so being confined to home for a year has allowed him to pass his tantric text examinations. It would be good to be able to help him.
