Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche's Visit to Singapore on 12-Mar-2005
Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche is unique in that he bridges two worlds—Asian and Western—having been brought up in both cultures. The Sakyong is the eldest son of Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and the incarnation of Mipham the Great, a renowned Nyingma scholar and meditation master. As part of the Mukpo clan of eastern Tibet, Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche descends from the Tibetan warrior-king Gesar of Ling.

Zurmang Gharwang Rinpoche is a holder of the Zurmang Kagyü lineage and will be familiar to senior students in the Shambhala mandala from his presence at the consecration of The Great Stupa of Dharmakaya in 2001. The Sakyong also gave public meditation instruction and talks to coincide with publication of the Chinese-language edition of Turning the Mind into an Ally in this multicultural nation at the southern tip of the Malaysian peninsula. The events were generously hosted by students of Zurmang Gharwang Rinpoche and by Lhatse Tulku, formerly of Namdroling monastery. The abhisheka was given in the home of a senior student of Zurmang Gharwang Rinpoche, which holds numerous shrines, rupas and religious artifacts, and in which offerings of 3,300 water bowls are made daily on behalf of the entire city of Singapore. |
