… I go for refuge

~ DudjomTersarNgondro

HH Dudjom Rinpoche

“I go for refuge and take delight in the consummate expanse of your wisdom mind.
All sacred, supreme objects of refuge, please pay heed!
Through cultivating and training in the awakened mind,
May the glorious potential to empty the depths of samsara be achieved!

I completely confess all accumulated faults and obscurations of the body, speech and mind
And pray that all victorious ones do not enter nirvana but remain
The root of all virtue is dedicated to all beings
Together may we attain fully enlightened Buddhahood.”

~ Dudjom Lingpa / H.H. Dudjom Rinpoche

The Essence of the Path

~ DudjomTersarNgondro
 HH Dudjom Rinpoche

Those with faith will go for refuge;
Those who have compassion will have bodhichitta;
Those with wisdom will gain realization;
Those who have devotion harvest blessings.

His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche Jigdral Yeshe Dorje (1904–1987)

~ DudjomTersarNgondro

His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche was one of the most influential masters of the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism in the 20th century. Born in 1904 in the hidden land of Pemakö, southeastern Tibet, he was recognized as the reincarnation of the great tertön Dudjom Lingpa and came from a noble lineage with deep spiritual roots. A prolific scholar, meditator, and revealed-treasure revealer, he preserved and transmitted the complete teachings of the Nyingma tradition during a time of crisis, compiling extensive writings on history, Dharma, and practice. After the Tibetan exodus, he was appointed the first Supreme Head of the Nyingma lineage, helping safeguard its teachings and culture in exile. His life was marked by deep realization, compassion, and unwavering dedication to benefiting beings. 

Tulku Thadral Rinpoche has asked Pema Osel Ling to host a three-day (Jan 6-8) Troma Dechö Retreat to honor the parinirvanas of two great masters of the Dudjom Tersar lineage:

His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche Jigdral Yeshe Dorje and Kyabje Chatral Sangye Dorje Rinpoche
