Announcement Regarding the Kama Transmissions at Mindrolling Monastery

The annual seven-day drubchen of Thugje Chenpo began at Mindrolling Monastery on the 10th day of the first lunar month. This drubchen marks the parinirvana of Kyabje the 11th Mindrolling Trichen. It was a historic occasion as Minling Dungse Rinpoche, the 13th generation of the Mindrolling lineage, presided over the drubchen.

On the 11th of November 2024, the consecration of the new Zangdok Palri temple took place in Tumlong, Sikkim. The intricate and ornate structure is named after the Copper Colored Mountain of Glory, the buddhafield of Guru Rinpoche.

Following the inauguration of the Zangdok Palri Temple at the Mindrolling branch monastery in Sikkim, the Gongjo Tibetan community offered Tenzhug, long life offerings, to Kyabje Khochhen Rinpoche at Mindrolling Monastery in Dehra Dun, India.

At the close of 2024, the young monks of Mindrolling Monastery took the end of year exams. May all the young monks excel in their education and be wonderful examples of practitioners of the Buddhadharma for the future.

At the request of Kyabje Minling Jetsün Khandro Rinpoche, Kyabje Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche will bestow the complete Kama ripening empowerments along with the liberating oral transmissions at Og Min Ogyen Mindrolling in India.

We are delighted to announce the official establishment of the following Mindrolling Dharma Centers and Study Groups under the spiritual guidance of Minling Jetsün Khandro Rinpoche to support the Dharma studies and practices of the worldwide Mindrolling Sangha.

On the 10th day of the first lunar month, Mindrolling Monastery began the annual seven-day drubchen of Thug Je Chenpo, the Great Compassionate One.  This drubchen is held annually during the month of Chötrul Duchen, the Buddha’s Month of Miracles, to mark the parinirvana of Kyabje Minling Trichen. 

On the 3rd day of the 1st lunar month of the Year of the Wood Dragon, marked the anniversary of the parinirvana of Kyabje Minling Trichen. The parinirvana day this year was an especially auspicious one because it marked the installation of the Draku of Kyabje Minling Trichen in the main shrine room.
