We are very excited to welcome Gebchak Wangdrak Rinpoche on his first journey to Australia. This is a friendship visit to both the Sydney and Melbourne regions where wonderful opportunities have been organized. Rinpoche will share stories and images of the Gebchak nuns plus give teachings on how we can meditate on our own true nature – our Buddha nature.
Wangdrak Rinpoche is a Khenpo and abbot of Gebchak nunnery in the remote region of Nangchen in Eastern Tibet. Gebchak Gonpa is renowned for the accomplishments of its nuns in profound meditation practice and in their joyful expression of compassion and wisdom. Rinpoche’s care for these devoted women is a living example of deep compassion.
