JAMME-GON NAMGYAL
THEKCHEN LING MONASTERY
|
The Jamme Gon Namgyal Monastery was established
in the year 1300 in Nangchen , Eastern Tibet by three tulkus namely, Lhathog
Gyalsay , Karma Dugthog , and Karma Lhachog .They were personal disciples
of Khampa Kharma Tenphel and had attained great accomplishment in learning
and unrivalled realizations in their practice. The monastery was built
on the land provided by their disciple the king of Nangchen at that time.
For 700 years, and throughout the successive
incarnations of their venerable tulkus, the monastery became a center for
accumulation of merits. They worked relentlessly to propagate the Buddhist
teachings and continuously performed Buddhist activities in the region.
All these came to a stop in 1960 due to the malicious acts of destruction
during the Chinese Cultural Revolution. The monastery was totally and completely
destroyed. |
Following the era of destruction, hardship and
sufferings, the opportunity to re-establish the monastery arrived in the
eighties. Together, Ven. Choesin Rinpoche and
Ven.
Lhamchog Rinpoche, took and accepted the responsibility to re-built
and upkeep the monastery, look after the livelihood of the yogins and sangha
members. They are also responsible for the teaching and propagation of
the Buddha Dharma.
