Most Venerable Khenchen Rinpoché, Konchog Gyaltshen

Khenchen Rinpoche

Channel-knots are untied by this treasury of confident intelligence that
Excellently clarifies the instructions, mindset, treatises, textual
tradition, and
Life-essence of the Triple Gem [Konchog] Teaching --
May the life of this great Lamp of the Teachings be stable and long!

You meaningfully promulgate the Teachings everywhere;
You raise aloft the Victory Banner [Gyaltshen] of the non-setting Teachings;
Your fearless roar annihilates wrong views -- May the life of this
Maintainer of the Unerring Victor's Teaching Treasury be stable and long!

- from "Flower of Faith and Good Fortune," a long-life prayer for Khenchen Rinpoché offered by the 14th Dru-tshe-bhum Chen-nga Rinpoché.

On this page we hope to post regular updates on the whereabouts of Khenchen Rinpoché, his Dharma-activities, his health and messages from Rinpoché. 


Photos from Khenchen Rinpoché's most recent visit to Eastern Tibet (summer 2007)


Palmé Gon Monastery in Nangchen (Qinghai province). Khenchen Rinpoché taught The Heart-Essence of the Mahayana (Ten-Nying) to Lho Kunsang Rinpoché's monks here. During this trip, Khenchen Rinpoché stayed here the longest and gave many other transmissions to students of the monastic college here.


With retreatants at Gar Monastery in Nangchen. The retreatants requested teachings and transmission of the Six Dharmas of Naropa from Khenchen Rinpoché. 


Drupgyu Monastery - currently probably the Drikung Kagyu monastery with the most monks (over 700). Khenchen Rinpoché taught the Serkhangma (The Golden Chapel Prayer by Kyobpa Jikten Sumgön) here.
