After many years, we are delighted to welcome Khandro Rinpoche again at Dechen Chöling!

Mindrolling Jetsün Khandro Rinpoche is a unique teacher in many respects. She is one of very few women teachers in the Tibetan Buddhist world, and is recognised as a lineage holder in both the Kagyu and Nyingma schools. 

In this two-day programme, Rinpoche will teach one day on each the Refuge and Bodhisattva Vows. For those who wish to take the vows, there will be a ceremony on the evening of the 14th (Refuge Vow) and on the afternoon of the 15th (Bodhisattva Vow).

Here is a teaching of Rinpoche on taking refuge.
