His Holiness with small friend in 1974. This photograph was taken
in a pet store in Berkeley, CA. Anecdotes have it that the 16th Karmapa
was fond of visiting pet stores, acquiring some of their stock (crickets
and so on) and setting them free. This photograph is from the holdings
of the Shambhala Archives. The photographer is unknown, and duplication
is by written permission only.
