Sad news 😢😢😢
Yesterday, HE Lama Wangdor Rinpoche entered into Parinirvana at Tso Pema(Rewalsar) in his cave community in India. Rinpoche is in still Thukdam in the Lion Posture like the Buddha.
HE Wangdor Rinpoche (b.1925-2019) was a noted Tibetan Dzogchen master and monk based in Tso Pema, India, where he lived in the Holy Caves. Through his teachings on Dzogchen heart texts and Mahamudra he reached students throughout the world. He was both from the Nyingma and Kagyü schools. Trained first in Dzigar Monastery in Kham, he became a main student of Thuksey Rinpoche, among other Dzogchen teachers. After fleeing from Tibet to India in 1959, carrying Thuksey Rinpoche upon his back, he settled there, where he has spent many years in retreat under the direction of Dudjom Rinpoche. He is a lineage holder of Dudjom Rinpoche.
Om Vajra Satto Hung
Pray for swift rebirth of Rinpoche.
