Brief description: The six sessions of teachings given during the 32nd Annual Namo Buddha Seminar in April 2025, recorded by Thrangu Media at Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery, Namo Buddha, Nepal, are in English and will be available to view by the end of the day (Nepal time) on November 11th, 2025.
Event details: ‘The Torch of True Meaning’ by the great master and scholar Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye gives clear and concise instruction on the preliminary and main practices of Mahamudra meditation. As stated in the foreword by H.H. the 17th Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje:
Anyone who wishes to practice the ngondro of the Kagyu lineage and in particular the Karma Kagyu lineage should first read this text carefully and internalize its meaning. They will then have a stable ground for the practice of mahamudra. This is not just the correct way to practice, but also the most beneficial.
Venerable Choje Lama Wangchuk Rinpoche was born in Kathmandu in November 1983. He began his education at Thrangu Rinpoche’s school in Boudha and became a monk during his early studies, training under the late Khenpo Ngedhon at Thrangu Monastery. From 2008 to 2011 he completed the traditional three-year retreat at Thrangu Sekhar Retreat Center under the guidance of V. V. Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche and Drupon Khenpo Lhabu. He then served as Thrangu Rinpoche’s secretary and attendant. In 2018, on the 33rd birthday of H.H. the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa, he was formally bestowed the title of Choje Lama. Since then, he has overseen the monasteries, dharma institutes, schools, and clinics established by V. V. Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche.

Brief description: The six sessions of teachings given during the 32nd Annual Namo Buddha Seminar in April 2025, recorded by Thrangu Media at Thrangu Tashi Yangtse Monastery, Namo Buddha, Nepal, are in English and will be available to view by the end of the day (Nepal time) on November 11th, 2025.
Event details: ‘The Torch of True Meaning’ by the great master and scholar Jamgon Kongtrul Lodro Thaye gives clear and concise instruction on the preliminary and main practices of Mahamudra meditation. As stated in the foreword by H.H. the 17th Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje:
Anyone who wishes to practice the ngondro of the Kagyu lineage and in particular the Karma Kagyu lineage should first read this text carefully and internalize its meaning. They will then have a stable ground for the practice of mahamudra. This is not just the correct way to practice, but also the most beneficial.
Venerable Choje Lama Wangchuk Rinpoche was born in Kathmandu in November 1983. He began his education at Thrangu Rinpoche’s school in Boudha and became a monk during his early studies, training under the late Khenpo Ngedhon at Thrangu Monastery. From 2008 to 2011 he completed the traditional three-year retreat at Thrangu Sekhar Retreat Center under the guidance of V. V. Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche and Drupon Khenpo Lhabu. He then served as Thrangu Rinpoche’s secretary and attendant. In 2018, on the 33rd birthday of H.H. the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa, he was formally bestowed the title of Choje Lama. Since then, he has overseen the monasteries, dharma institutes, schools, and clinics established by V. V. Khenchen Thrangu Rinpoche.

Event details: The King of Aspiration Prayers (also known as Samantabhadra’s Aspiration Prayer or The Aspiration of Excellent Conduct) is one of the most revered and widely recited prayers in Tibetan Buddhism. It forms the final chapter of the Avatamsaka Sutra (Flower Ornament Sutra) and expresses the vast aspirations of the Bodhisattva Samantabhadra (Tib. Kuntu Zangpo), whose name means ‘Universal Goodness.’ In its 62 verses, the prayer includes the vow to follow the path of all Buddhas, the making of offerings throughout limitless realms, the purification of negative karma, and the dedication of merit for the welfare of all beings. Recited daily in monasteries and nunneries, it is regarded as especially powerful for generating merit and cultivating the Bodhisattva ideal of compassion for all sentient beings.

Observed on the 22nd day of the ninth Tibetan lunar month (which this year falls on November 11th), Lhabab Duchen commemorates the Buddha’s return to the human realm after giving teachings to his mother for three months in the Heaven of the Thirty-Three. The merit of all positive actions performed at this time is said to be greatly multiplied. You are cordially invited to participate.
Event details: It is said that the Buddha himself selected the Sixteen Arhats from amongst his disciples and requested them to protect the Dharma. At the time of the Buddha’s Parinirvana, they vowed to remain in the world and maintain the Dharma until the time of the future Buddha Maitreya. This puja, ‘The Wish-fulfilling Gem Enhancing the Buddha’s Teachings’, a method for making offerings and prayers to Shakyamuni Buddha and the Sixteen Arhats, is said to bring special blessings for long life and to quickly generate merit.
‘Lama Choepa’ (Guru Puja), literally means ‘making offerings to the spiritual guide’. This beautifully poetic and profound guru puja practice is a powerful method for strengthening the guru disciple relationship and for creating merit on this special day.

Brief description: This practice is dedicated to the liberation from suffering of all who have passed away, as well as those currently in the intermediate state between death and rebirth. You are cordially invited to participate.
Event details: The Kar-ling Zhi-tro refers to a cycle of teachings and practices revealed by the terton Karma Lingpa, traditionally believed to have originated from Padmasambhava. Zhitro here refers to the mandala of the hundred peaceful (Zhi) and wrathful (tro) tantric deities and to the genre of texts associated with this mandala of deities, which represent the pure, innermost essences of the body and mind. The hundred peaceful and wrathful deities are believed to manifest to a deceased person following the dissolution of the body and consciousness in the intermediate state, or bardo, between death and rebirth. Famously, parts of this extensive cycle of practices and teachings have appeared in translation under the title ‘The Tibetan Book of the Dead’.

Brief description: The teaching, to be recorded at Bodong Porong Pelmo Choeding monastery, Kathmandu, Nepal, will be available to view by the end of each day (Nepal time).
Event details: One of the most celebrated works of the great Tibetan Kadampa master and meditator Langri Thangpa. Although very short and succinctly expressed, it outlines the essential aspects of the training of one’s mind in the conduct of a bodhisattva. Its main emphasis is on the altruistic practices of the bodhisattva’s way of life. Particularly highlighted are the skilful ways in which a true practitioner can transcend adverse circumstances and transform these into conditions which will enhance spiritual progress. This text forms part of a tradition which evolved in ancient India and later developed, in Tibet, as a distinct category of practices known as ‘Lo-jong’, often translated as ‘Thought Transformation’ or ‘Mind Training’.
Geshe Pema Dorjee (born in 1951, Tibet) is an internationally respected scholar and teacher of Tibetan Buddhism, known for his fluent English, clear explanations, warm nature, and humour. After advanced studies at the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics and earning his Geshe degree at Drepung Loseling Monastery, he held senior roles including Director of the Tibetan Children’s Village and Principal of the College for Higher Tibetan Studies. At the Dalai Lama’s request, he revived the Bodong tradition, establishing a research centre in Dharamsala and a monastery and school in Kathmandu. He also leads humanitarian projects in the Himalayas and has taught widely across Europe, Asia, and the United States since 1997.

Brief description: These suttas (discourses) stress the practice of sati (mindfulness) for the purification of beings, and the overcoming of suffering, and for walking on the path of truth toward the realization of Nirvana. English and Chinese translation available.
[This event was originally webcast in December 2021 as Event ID 1835.]
Event details: The Satipatthana Sutta (The Discourse on the Establishing of Mindfulness), and the subsequently created Mahasatipatthana Sutta (The Great Discourse on the Establishing of Mindfulness), are two of the most celebrated and widely studied discourses in the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism, acting as the foundation for contemporary vipassana meditational practice. The Pali texts of the Satipatthana Sutta and the Mahasatipatthana Sutta are largely similar in content; the main difference being a section about the Four Noble Truths (Catu Ariya Sacca) in the Observation of Phenomena (Dhammanupassana), which is greatly expanded in the Mahasatipatthana Sutta.
Teaching recorded at H.H. the Dalai Lama’s residence in Dharamsala, HP, India. Donations made related to this event are strictly voluntary and any donations that are made will go to the Tibetan International Digital Library, a project supported by His Holiness.

Brief description: Karma is a Sanskrit word which means ‘action’. Karma refers to the doctrine of actions and their causal consequences. These three talks by senior teacher Karma Wangchuk Lhamo are given in Tibetan with English translation. [This event was originally webcast in July 2019 as Event ID 220.]
Event details: The concept of karma includes, in its causal aspect, both the actual actions (physical, verbal and mental) and the psychological imprints and tendencies created within the mind by such actions. After the commitment of an action a causal chain is maintained within the mental continuum which continues through successive events and rebirths. Such a karmic potential is later activated when it interacts with appropriate circumstances and conditions thus leading to the fruition of its effects. In general, if we act motivated by greed, anger, or delusion, we are planting the seed of suffering; when our acts are motivated by generosity, love, or wisdom, then we are creating the karmic conditions for openness and happiness.
Karma Wangchuk Lhamo was ordained at Thrangu Tara Abbey at the age of sixteen. In 1999 she entered solitary retreat for three years in Manang, Nepal. Between 2005 and 2014 she completed the nine year shedra studies course at Namdroling monastery in South India. Since 2014 she has been a senior teacher at Thrangu Tara Abbey.
