Wangdrak Rinpoche
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

Wangdrak Rinpoche is the abbot of Gebchak Gonpa, holding responsibility for the nuns' spiritual training and their material well-being.
Wangdrak Rinpoche the third is the reincarnation[citation needed] of Wangdrak Dorje. Along with the first Tsangyang Gyatso Rinpoche, Wangdrak Dorje was instrumental in building Gebchak Gonpa, and was renowned for his total mastery of the profound practices of Tsa-Lung.
The present incarnation received a Khenpo degree from Dzongsar College, well known as the best college in all of Tibet for non-sectarian scriptural study. He has also received a remarkably broad training in the practices and rituals of the Nyingma, Sakya and Kagyu traditions.
After completion of his studies and several years of teaching, Wangdrak Rinpoche was repeatedly requested by Tsoknyi Rinpoche and the Gebchak nuns' to accept formal responsibility for the spiritual and material well-being of the nunnery. Along with caring for his students from all over the globe, this is the end to which he continually works.
