His Eminence Trungram Gyatrul Rinpoche is honoring us with his presence this summer at the Dhagpo Kagyu Ling Institute. Lama Jigme Rinpoche and the community are delighted to welcome him once again.
Last year, his teaching on Gampopa deeply moved practitioners in attendance.
We will therefore have the pleasure of welcoming him from 13 to 16 August 2026, on the dates originally scheduled for the Clarity and Compassion course.
The detailed program will be announced shortly.
His Eminence Trungram Gyatrül Rinpoche is the fourth Trungram Gyalwa Tulku of the Karma Kagyu lineage. He was recognized by Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa.
He began long studies at Rumtek at a young age and received empowerments and teachings from all the traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. His training in meditative practice was guided by the accomplished practitioner Khenchen Trinley Paljor Rinpoche, with whom he spent nearly his entire life until the latter’s passing. He acquired advanced university training in Taiwan and the United States, where he received his doctorate in 2004 at Harvard with a thesis on Gampopa. He is fluent in Tibetan, English, Nepalese, Sherpa and Chinese and possesses solid knowledge of Sanskrit, Hindi and French.
His activity unfolds throughout the world through teachings, the creation of centers for Buddhist study, humanitarian associations (Nepal, 2015), a nonreligious center for peace in Lumbini, educational initiatives and more. Through these various activities, Gyatrul Rinpoche promotes wisdom and compassion with a nonsectarian mindset, allying the preservation and modernisation of traditions for a 21st century Buddhism.
