H.E. Khangser Rinpoche

His Eminence Khangser Rinpoche was born in Kathmandu, Nepal, in May 1975 and was discovered at five years old as the reincarnation of the 7th Khangser Rinpoche.[1][2] The 7th Khangser Rinpoche was one of three high lamas responsible for identifying Buddhist monk, and prominent spiritual leader of Tibet, His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Khangser Rinpoche completed his preliminary study of Buddhist philosophy at the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics, Dharamshala[3]. He later graduated in advanced Buddhist studies in sutra and tantra at Sera Jey Monastery[4] and Gyuto Tantric Monastic University,[5] where he earned the Geshe Lharampa and a Doctorate Degree in tantra; both with the highest honors in the top division. Khangser Rinpoche presently serves as vice abbot of Gyuto Monastery[6] and as the founder and administrative head of Thangkar Dechen Choling Monastic Institute.

Thangkar Dechen Choling Monastic Institute, is a Monastery, and School, that generously provides food, housing, and education in both dharma and contemporary Western curriculum to over 80 young monks in Nepal. [7] Many of these monks are orphans and all of of them were living in poverty before arriving at Thangkar Monastic Institute.[8] Khangser Rinpoche has also founded the Dipkar Vajrayana Institute to bring dharma education completely free to all who wish to learn.[9] He has also established many Dipkar Centers around the globe, spearheading philanthropic efforts such as providing free food to those in need and free dharma teachings. Khangser Rinpoche is recognized as one of the modern age's great teachers. He has dedicated his entire life to providing spiritual medicine for what ails a broken spirit and considers it his mission to help as many as he is able.[10][11]
