One of our memorable experiences during our trip to Nepal is the visit at Triten Norbutse, the most important learning center of Yungdrung Bon. It was established by Ven. Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche, a renowned Dzogchen master. Rinpoche is now over 80, but he is still actively teaching his monk and lay students. We were fortunate to receive his precious teaching on Dzogchen meditation and his blessing for our Tara Great Stupa project.
