Dear Sangha Members and Friends,
We are delighted to announce that Tulku Thadral Rinpoche will be joining Tulku Orgyen Rinpoche at Odiyana Institute next weekend to lead two special Dharma practices. Tulku Thadral Rinpoche (Jigme Namgyal Dorje) is a highly realized and widely respected contemporary Buddhist master who is qualified to teach and confer all aspects of the Nyingma tradition. Vastly learned yet extraordinarily humble, he embodies the qualities of wisdom, nobility, and excellence. Tulku Thadral Rinpoche is a close Vajra brother of Tulku Orgyen Rinpoche and last visited Santa Barbara in 2016, when he led a Vajrakilaya weekend retreat. We are honored to welcome him back to Odiyana Institute.
