The Perfection of Wisdom tradition is one of the two great philosophical traditions of Mah�yana Buddhism. It is closely associated with Nag�rjuna who is said to have retrieved the texts from the Nagas.
Rinpoche was born on 27th July 1940 in Menya, Eastern Tibet. In 1945, Rinpoche was recognized as the reincarnation of the 9th Kyabgoen of Dagyab (Patron of Dagyab). Rinpoche studied in Drepung monastery, one of the 3 main monastic universities in Central Tibet and has also achieved the title of Geshe Lharampa (a qualification which is equivalent to the PHD degree in Indian universities), and is the highest degree in Tibetan Buddhism.
Rinpoche travels to many parts of the world to give teachings, and is especially known in the West for his practise-oriented, intensive and enthusiastic way of teaching Tantra. Rinpoche has since given Dharma teachings in many parts of the world including Holland, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Brazil, America, Singapore, Malaysia, India and Tibet. In his teachings, he emphasizes the importance of practicing the Buddha Dharma in a simple way without cultural bias and he greatly encourages his students to integrate Buddhist practice into daily life. He teaches in Tibetan, English and German language.
