Since His Holiness the 16th Karmapa was the main teacher of Thrangu Rinpoche, we have been practicing the guru yoga composed by Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche himself: “Calling the Glorious Karmapa Rigpe Dorje Longlingly from Afar”.

This specific guru yoga is included in the lovely book “Ocean of Philosophy” (published in 2017) which is dedicated to Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche, and which you can download for free here: https://dharmaebooks.org/thrangu/
