With fond memories still fresh from his first visit to Australia, Gebchak Wangdrak Rinpoche has been welcomed back for a second time to the Sydney area and Melbourne – from 24 June to 14 July 2013. On this visit Rinpoche will lead extended meditation sessions and weekend retreats, as an opportunity to deepen the connection and meditation experience of students from Rinpoche’s last visit. For new students wanting to connect with Wangdrak Rinpoche and the Gebchak tradition, now is your chance! Rinpoche will share more stories and insights of the Gebchak nuns in Tibet who are preserving a rare tradition of lifelong yogic practice, in spite of rapid modernization in the world around them.
As a Khenpo and Abbot of Gebchak Nunney, Wangdrak Rinpoche is a wonderful representative of Buddhism in Tibet whose compassion and cheerfulness is a reminder of the inner dharma that transcends all change.
