Please enjoy a slideshow presenting the three-month long series of empowerments bestowed by His Eminence Namkha Drimed Rinpoche this winter at his monastery in Orissa, India. The principal recipient of the empowerments was Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche. The Rinchen Terdzo was attended by nearly a thousand Tibetan and Western monastics and lay people. The Rinchen Terdzo is a collection of practices that represent the heart of the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.
