Re. photo of The Gyalwang Drukpa

Dear Erika Mannings; Thank you for pointing out that H.H. should be referred to now as The Gyalwang Drukpa and not Drukchen Rinpoche (or the nickname "Druk" He asked us to use when we first met in Hemis in 1981 just after he was installed as Abbot there). In any case, I have changed the photo for another one I took on the same visit which also shows his mother who accompanied him on a tour of all His associated establishments worldwide in 1991, as I think this photo may be of more interest. I have also requested that the file name be changed accordingly. Please let me know if you approve or have any other comments to make. Sincerely, John Hill (talk) 05:09, 10 September 2014 (UTC)
