Tashi delek,

Khyungpo Tsedrug Monastery of Yungdrung Bön, the biggest Bön Monastery in Tibet.

The status of this Monastery is very well accepted by the Chinese Government and they support their translation project of the Bön Kangyur, which will be translated into the Chinese language. :twothumbsup:

This translation project will last about 10 years. After 1 year the Chinese translation can be translated into English.
Seems to be that translations from Chinese to English is faster done than from Tibetan to English.

On this group photo the famous Bön Yogi Namkha Gyaltsen


SHAR DROL DECHEN YANGWEN LING was founded by Kalsang Dagpa Shelzhig in the 17th century. For generations it was known as a holy place where many Bön and Buddhist practitioners - monks, yogis, and lay practitioners - attained high levels of meditative experience.

The lineage of Shelzhig has been continuously maintained at the center through teachings from the sacred Dzogchen texts of Yabse Sum and Tsewang Bodyulma.

In 1959, during the Cultural Revolution, Shar Drol Dechen Yangwen Ling was destroyed and reduced to ruins.

In 1980, my root lama, Thaye Rangdol Rinpoche, re-established the meditation center and invited Lungrig Namdak Rinpoche, the last living lineage holder of Shardza Rinpoche, to come and teach there.

The center flourished and soon there were about 100 practitioners Namkha Gyaltsen Rinpoche,local monks, and I visit the area near Shar Drol Dechen Yangwen Ling Meditation Centre.

After a day of teachings with Namkha Gyaltsen Rinpoche a group of young monks, nuns, and I gather for a photo.
receiving instructions on Shardza Rinpoche's meditations and teachings, including me.

In 1998 my kind root lama Thaye Rangdol Rinpoche passed away and since then the meditation center has been deteriorating because there has been no one to properly oversee its administration.

In 2005, when I went to Tibet to visit my family and relatives, more than 50 monks and nuns living at the meditation center requested that I teach and help rebuild Shar Drol Dechen Yangwen Ling Meditation Centre.

When I saw the ruined meditation center that had been such a holy and revered place, and thought of all that my kind root lama had tried to do, I was very sad and promised to help as much as I could. While I was in Tibet my family, relatives, and other sponsors donated A closer view of Shar Drol Dechen Yangwen Ling Meditation Centre.

The mounrain behind Shar Drol Dechen Yangwen Ling Meditation Centre.

¥ 300001, and I gave all of the money to the meditation center as a small offering towards rebuilding.
The work of rebuilding has now begun, but we need about $35,000 (US) to complete Phase One which will include a large ground floor teaching and meditation hall and a residence for visiting lamas on the second floor.

Therefore I am asking all of my friends and the generous and loyal people I have met to donate what they can to help rebuild the meditation center. Any amount will be appreciated, and every dollar will go directly to rebuilding the meditation center.

Please remember: An ocean begins with just one drop of water!

TO MAKE A DONATION OR FOR MORE INFORMATION please contact me at: [email protected];
