After expounding Buddhadharma extensively in various countries for the past few years and also during raging pandemic times in 2020, Rinpoche decided to take a break from traveling outside Nepal. He planned to devote full time as the retreat master for nun retreatants at Karma Ngedon Pelbarling Retreat Center, until the completion of retreat in early 2023.

Thus in Febuary 2023, 13 Nuns have successfully completed their Three-Years-Three-Months retreat under the wonderful guidance of Rinpoche.

Nevertheless from his dwelling in the remote mountain, Rinpoche continues to benefit students around the World and spread precious dharma via online teachings. Additionally, he guides various dharma activities at Jangchup Choeling monastery as well as dharma events organized by his devotees in Nepal. 

Rejoicing!

"By this merit, may all obtain omniscience,

May it defeat the enemy, wrongdoing.

From the stormy waves of birth, old age, 

sickness, and death, 

From the ocean of samsara, may I free all beings!"

2020 was the year ravaged by pandemic and many lost their lives. A normal public gathering and public frequentation were restricted. Travel Restrictions and lockdown became a popular practice.

During such unfathomable circumstances, Rinpoche selflessly and tirelessly travelled everywhere in Europe. Many students inside as well as outside Europe were able to receive his precious teachings and blessings like never before either directly or via Online. These images are some representation of those graceful times.

Still the pandemic angst and situation continued to be rampant. Yet we know that "EVERYTHING IS IMPERMANENT". Thus this phase will also pass. We pray and hope that the fear of COVID disappeared very soon.
