2019 Yamantaka

Registration Information

2019 Yamantaka drubchen is on March 28-April 3. Please read the registration information CAREFULLY and fill out the registration form FULLY. You may send in the registration form prior to the registration date to avoid attachment problem on registration date. However, you will still need to send in e-mail to request for registration on 12/15 (Sat) 9am in CA time. We only have the capacity to accept e-mail registration at this point. Please ask one of your trusted family or friends to do that for you if you do not have access to e-mail. Thank you for your understanding.

We request that you send a separate e-mail instead of “Reply” to this e-mail as they may get buried in the mass e-mail if you simply press “reply.” If this is the first time for you to participate in Yamantaka drubchen in the Drikung Kagyu tradition, please ask a monastic member who know what it takes to complete the Yamantaka drubchen to do a recommendation letter for you. If you do not send in required documents before or when you register on 12/15, we will not consider it as registration until you complete all the documents. Then you may miss the time to registration. Thus, please work on your registration documents now. Please contact us if you have any question about this. Thank you again for your interest.

His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche

His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche is one of two heads of the Drikung Kagyu order of Tibetan Buddhism. Born in 1946 in Lhasa, Tibet, he was recognized at the age of four as the reincarnation of the previous Drikung Kyabgon and formally enthroned and educated at Drikung Thil, the main monastery of the Drikung Kagyu order in central Tibet. During the Tibetan exodus in the late 1950s, his parents fled to India while he remained at Drikung Thil. In 1959, Communist China closed the monastery, and His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche was adopted by his former tutor, His Eminence Gyabra Rinpoche. After completing his elementary and middle school education in Lhasa, in 1969 he was assigned to a countryside farm, working fifteen hours a day doing hard physical labor.

In 1975, His Holiness Chetsang Rinpoche crossed the Himalayan border separating Tibet from Nepal on foot and all alone except for fortuitous help from two strangers at one impassable point. He traveled to Dharamsala, India, the seat of the Tibetan government-in-exile, where he was received by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama and formally enthroned once again.

Then, after eighteen years of separation, His Holiness Chetsang Rinpoche was reunited with his family in the United States. He stayed for several years, completing courses in English and adult education and working after school at McDonald to practice his English.

In 1978, he returned to India, taking up rigorous Buddhist practice, retreats, and instruction from many of the greatest living masters of Tibetan Buddhism. In 1985, in Dehra Dun, India, he founded the Drikung Kagyu Institute, Jang Chub Ling, which provides traditional monastic and modern education to c. 450 monks and nuns; a meditation retreat center; and a project to collect and preserve all the Drikung Kagyu texts, as well as document the ways of life, philosophy, and religious traditions of the peoples of the Himalayas.
