Bio of Ven. Drupon Kheno Namgyal 

Now Principal of the Rigpe Dorje Institute of Higher Buddhist Philosophy at Kagyu Tekchen Ling, Lava, India, and Rigpe Dorje Institute for International Students at Pullahari Monastery, Kathmandu, Nepal, Drupon Khenpo completed the nine-year Acharya program at Nalanda Institute, Rumtek Monastery, studying under the guidance of Kyabje Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche and Kyabje Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche. After his graduation, he was appointed a Khenpo of Nalanda Institute where he taught for two years. Following that, he entered the three-year Mahamudra retreat at Pullahari Monastery under Khenpo Tsultrim Gyamtso Rinpoche. When he completed the retreat, he was appointed Drupon (retreat master) of Kunzang Dechen Osel Ling, the retreat centre at Pullahari Monastery. 

LAMA KARMA YESHE CHÖDRÖN and LAMA KARMA ZOPA JIGME are long-time Tibetan Buddhist practitioners and close students of Kyabje Bokar Rinpoche and Drupon Khenpo Lodro Namgyal. They have served as teachers and translators at the Rigpe Dorje Institute for International Students at Pullahari Monastery since 2005. In 2016, they successfully completed the three-year cloistered meditation retreat in the Karma Kamtsang lineage under the auspices of Kyabje Thrangu Rinpoche at Vajra Vidya Retreat Center in Crestone, Colorado, serving as translators for retreat master Khenpo Jigme and philosophy master Khenpo Lobzang alongside intensive training in Karma Kagyu lineage practises.


NOTE: Because of this special program, Rigpe Dorje Centre will reschedule our Tonglen meditation and discussion session (March 12) to a later date.
