EAST MEETS EAST: Buddhist lamas (teachers) Karma Dorjey and Damcho visited Gisborne this week on a mission to find a suitable site for a stupa (spiritual monument). It would be the first stupa in the world to see the sun and Gisborne was chosen specifically for this. The pair looked at locations from Muriwai to Tatapouri. If a suitable place is found, once completed, the stupa would be gifted to Gisborne District Council for the people of Gisborne. The pair are pictured visiting a Gisborne Buddhist centre.

Hopefully they will hold to help set up a good spring.” Mr Harris went on to say — “The wet ground conditions will have added a few more challenges if you are feeding out such as trying to maximise feed utilisation while staying safe”, and he added — “with the milder weather comes the opportunity to take control of your grazing rotations.
