Lineage

Tana Dungsey Rinpoche is the head of two convergent lineages, the Yelpa and Hungkara. The Yelpa lineage was established in the 12th century by a student of Phakmo Drupa (who was a student of Gampopa). The Hungkara lineage was established probably in the 8th century, by a student of Guru Rinpoche.

Teachings Wordwide

Rinpoche travels and teaches in-person and via Zoom throughout the world. Recent topics have included instructions and commentaries on Green Tara, Saga Dawa, and Ngondro practices. Rinpoche was first invited to teach in the west by Tsoknyi Rinpoche.
