His Holiness the Gyalwang Drukpa |
|
His Holiness Jigme Pema Wangchen, the Gyalwang Drukpa, is the spiritual head of the Drukpa Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. A great practitioner of Mahamudra and Dzongchen, he studied the philosophical traditions of all the four schools of Tibetan Buddhism under the guidance of his principal guru, the late Kyabje Thuksey Rinpoche (1917 - 1982) and many other great masters. Despite being responsible for the lineage, His Holiness trends untiringly to give teachings, advices and initiations that will enable his students to practice and progress according to the Drukpa tradition. At present, he is responsible for numerous Drukpa lineage monasteries in the Himalayan region as well as dharma centers around the world, most notably in Europe, Asia and America.
The impact of His Holiness's simple and direct teaching is profound and has inspired a great many people throughout the world in their spiritual pursuits. Those who have already the good fortune to meet him feel, above all, personally and deeply touched by his great wisdom and compassion.

| Presently, there are more than 400 nuns at Druk Gawa Khilwa Abbey's various chapters in Kathmandu, Nepal and Ladakh, India. Without the support of many benefactors and volunteers, many of them would not have the opportunity to a modern education integrated with Buddhist philosophy enabling them with the proper tools to practise Dharma in their everyday life through helping people in need. As the chance to practise Dharma is the most precious offering of all, you have made this offering of Dharma a very precious opportunity to these nuns. |
