We are very happy and grateful that the 7th Kundrol Namkha Thinley Wangyal Rinpoche will return this fall for another teaching. Kundrol Rinpoche has agreed to give the Tse Drup Long Life Empowerment and teach on the Tse Drup longevity meditation practice. This special practice goes back to the 8th century Bon Master Drenpa Namkha, to whom Kundrol Rinpoche has a deep connection. All are welcome, including those who are ill or in need of healing.

During the public talk, Rinpoche will introduce Bon Longevity practice and talk about the great 8th century Bon master Drenpa Namkha. Drenpa Namkha is a powerful Bon deity of longevity who offers protection from diseases and obstacles and who manifested in human form as the Bon master Drenpa Namkha to help and teach many beings.

Kundrol Rinpoche is a renowned healer and psychic and the seventh reincarnation of the great Kundrol Jatson Nyingpo of Tibet. His warmth and compassion, his sense of humor and the unique qualities of his teachings have touched the lives of many beings. Rinpoche is a nonsectarian and has received teachings and empowerments with highly venerated Bon and Buddhist masters such as H.H. Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, H.H. Menling Tri Rinpoche, H.E. Dodrup Rinpoche and many others.

At his monastery Za Mongyal in India, Rinpoche is offering much needed monastic training and education to a growing number of monks and children. Proceeds from this Retreat will help support Rinpoche’s monastery.
