For a long time I was looking for such a movie ! But I could not find any - because we were requested in the past not to make any pictures and not to shoot any movies during the sacred Black Crown Ceremony . I do have now a regret not to make myself a full movie of this great emotional event for the generations to come when I was with HH the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa : I was one of his close assistants during his travels in Europe in the years 1974 to 1980 and was very lucky to attend the Black Crown Ceremonies 27 times ! And during these years I was also with Lama OLE and Hannah traveling around Europe with HH the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa ... It was such a great time in our life !

I was trained as Christian priest and theologian and had read plenty of hagiography from saints and holy people. It seemed the same. As I reflected however i realised the fundamental difference was that the suffering of HH was incidental...what mattered was his compassion and expanse of mind. HH wasn't fixated but expansive...in the end I left the priesthood and became a Buddhist in the kagyu lineage first time I read this account i really believed it was ‘hype’.
