Khensur Rinpoche Geshe Wangdak was born in 1934 in Tibet and entered Ba Zingon Moastery at age 10. At 18 he entered Drepung Monastic University and earned the highest honors degree of Geshe Lharampa. Rinpoche was invited to teach at Namgyal Monastery and taught sutra and tantra for 14 years. He has received teachings on tantric practices of all four Tibetan traditions. In 1991 His Holiness the Dalai Lama appointed Khensur Rinpoche Abbot of Namgyal Monastery and in 1995 he was appointed Abbot of Namgyal Monastery in Ithaca, New York. Geshe-la has taught at DFF a number of times and continues a warm and ongoing connection with the students here.


Teachings are given free of charge. However, DFF must cover the facility, air transportation, and publicity expenses for these teachings and we would like to make an offering to Khensur Rinpoche to support him in his Dharma work. Therefore, we suggest a donation of $10, or more if you wish, for each session. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
