A surprising gift!
I have varied interests that differ from each other greatly. Many of my blog readers know that one of my interest is in Bigfoot, Sasquatches and Yetis. For Christmas 2013, the team that is here with me in the States, surprised me with a gift of a Bigfoot foot cast! A genuine one!
Apart from working very hard alongside me here, they all took the time out to find a gift that they know I would love! I was pleasantly surprised to receive the gift, but was even more touched by their care. Now it’s been framed in my room always.
Thank you Pastor Jean Ai, Dato’ Ruby, JP Thong, Patsy Gooi, and Pastor Loh Seng Piow!

The cast is from a footprint found in the Olympic Rainforest, in Washington state. The footprint is 16-inches long! Compare that to the size of an average shoe, and you can see how much bigger a Bigfoot’s foot really is!
A close-up of his feet.
You can see from this image the quality of the cast. It is made out of dental stone, and is quite fragile. It also has some dirt embedded in it and looks just like the casts the bigfoot hunters have!
This is the brochure that came with the gift. It explains where the footprint was casted, some of the background and also when the cast was made. The gift also came with six documentaries about Bigfoot which I am looking forward to watch.
VIDEO #1: Operation Discovery
Join the BRC as they take you on 3 different research expeditions which include:
- British Columbia Canada’s Cariboo Mountains (Expedition Notes)

This documentary was first filmed/produced in 2004 and finalized in 2006; a fascinating 3 year study. The study sites are located in three distinct rainforest valleys in the Olympic Mountains of Washington State. Come along as this Sasquatch/Bigfoot research group chronicle the expeditions from the Hoh, Queets and Quinault Rainforest valleys.
Watch members of the BRC attempt to track down and observe these incredible creatures within a unique and pristine rainforest environment. At one point in the documentary, members believe they get within 25 feet of a Sasquatch feeding in the lush vegetation of a creek bed. Excitement builds as mysterious wood knocking begins and later unknown whooping-type screams are heard from a second nearby creature. This documentary is filled with visual graphics, topographic maps, beautiful scenes and informative data.

Wow……a surprising gift for HE Tsem Rinpoche from the team . Rinpoche loved it as all along Rinpoche watching and reading articles of Bigfoot, Sasquatches and Yetis. So thoughtful of them to look and did research on it to get the foot print done. It is made out of dental stone, looks like the casts the bigfoot hunters have.
Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this great gift with us. It not easy to see one though.
This is really a very cool gift for Rinpoche. I’m sure Rinpoche loves this bigfoot gift very much!??. Thank you Rinpoche and blog team for this wonderful sharing!????☘️???
多麼美妙和神奇且难得的禮物,很高興仁波切已經擁有這樣一個大得驚人的雪人大腳印證據!希望仁波切將能夠得到更多雪人相关且有趣的收藏品!
Great gift for Xmas 🙂 very thoughtful of the team.
Just reading the descriptions of the videos already made the video irresistible. It is really amazing how BRC can spend so many years to research on Big Foot and prove its existence. I will very much love to see 1 up close 1 of these days…
Thank you Rinpoche.
Thank you very much to the US team for getting this lovely present. As always thank your Rinpoche for the yeti and bigfoot stories does make that much more interesting to know about such creatures living in the forests and jungles.
This cast seems to be very interesting. I am sure that bigfoot exists out there, somewhere. He is most probably as sentient as we are and pure so he does not want to come out and be corrupted by us. Also, humans would definitely exploit him when given the chance. I think that we should leave Bigfoot to his own devices and find him in a way that wouldn’t be intruding.
What a wonderful and amazing gift that Rinpoche’s team offered to Rinpoche!waw realy nice gift.
Dear Rinpoche, Pastor Jean Ai, Dato’ Ruby, JP Thong, Patsy Gooi, and Seng Piow are so thoughtful. I really want to see bigfoot with my own eyes and study them properly without hurting. And for some reasons there is a guy says that he wants to be the best bigfoot hunter in the world. Why should bigfoots die just because this guy wants to have fame?
OMB! This is awesome! Rinpoche’s hardworking team in the US is really caring and thoughtful enough to present Rinpoche with this Bigfoot cast, I think it means a lot because it shows that they are not only hardworking people but also very kind people.
It was hard to contain our excitement as we waited for the footprint to arrive. We ordered way before Christmas but it only arrived after that. Well, better late than never. It was actually Pastor Jean Ai’s idea.
Oh my goodness!!! Is that a genuine Bigfoot foot print mold???? This is amazing! I thought stuff like these are placed in the museum or something like that… The US team is really resourceful for being able to find something like this, it must be really rare and difficult to obtain.
The liaisons are indeed very thoughtful and sensitive to the peoples around them. They know what each individuals liking or what irks them. In this case , they immediately be able to relate to Rinpoche when they encounter this unusual item. By observing the liaisons’ actions, it will reflect on how Rinpoche teaches them to be conscious to others needs. Thank you Rinpoche for showing us the actual practice.
Thank you for sharing. The gift really “big”..the team really show the care and thoughtful.
Dear Rinpoche,
WOW!!! What a wonderful and amazing gift that Rinpoche’s team offered to Rinpoche!!! I am really glad that Rinpoche has got such a amazing piece of Bigfoot evidence!!! I do know how much Rinpoche loves Bigfoot and I really hope that Rinpoche will be able to get other interesting collectibles of Bigfoot!!!
Meanwhile enjoy your new gift!!!
Love
Jutika
Hahahaha….what a mindful surprising gift with love and care to Rinpoche by the team, Sweet 🙂
I am a fan of Myth. i believe Big Foot and many others beings surviving in the same earth with us. Thank you for sharing your joy Rinpoche 🙂
If the Yeti were still around, the Washington state area would certainly be one of the prime places to look for it. Was lucky enough to have visited a friend in Seattle a long time ago and a bunch of us did go hiking in a national park nearby with hoagies tucked in our backpacks.
The rainforest here is extremely rich in flora/fauna and has abundant crystal-clear fresh water. Winter would certainly be mild enough for the Yeti to survive comfortably. Nice place for a Yeti to raise a family.
Now I know why that when I started upping the pace while on that hike (I was really, really enjoying the clean and oxygen-rich air), the group left me alone to venture up the peak. Unfortunately, no Yeti encounters to report, or is it just because I wasn’t looking?
