H. E. GyangKhang Tulku Rinpoche was born in India.
At a tender age, he entered Ngagyur Nyingma Institute, a branch of
Namdroling Monastery and an advanced college of Tibetan Buddhism.
In his fifth year in his university, GyangKhang Rinpoche displayed his
scriptural knowledge by giving a lengthy discourse on Sangwa Nyingpo (Magical Net Tantra, a Mahayoga Teaching) in front of His Holiness The Fourteen Dalai Lama and an assembly of thirty thousand people both lay and ordained from all the different religious traditions of Tibet. He also debated on this subject and emerged victorious. His Holiness the Dalai Lama praised his wisdom in front of all and offered him a khatag,
a traditional scarf, encouraging him to hold, sustain and disseminate
the teachings of Lord Buddha for the benefits of all beings. read more>>>
