Drupdey Pelchen Khang serves as a dedicated retreat center for monks, providing a serene environment to engage in meditation and spiritual practice for any duration they choose. Founded by Khedrupchen Rinpoche in 2017, the center embodies his vision of fostering life skills and spiritual growth among practitioners. The long-term goal is to establish an international retreat center to make these opportunities more accessible worldwide.
At the heart of Drupdey Pelchen Khang’s mission are two vital pillars of Buddhist practice: Shedra (the learning center) and Drupda (the practice center). While Shedra focuses on in-depth study of the Buddha Dharma, Drupda serves as the primary hub for meditation and experiential practice, essential for attaining the highest realizations in Dharma.
The inaugural retreat began with three senior monks and lay female practitioners. Spanning from 2017 to 2024, their practice encompassed foundational preliminaries, the three roots practice, and advanced Dzogchen teachings. This marked a significant milestone in the center’s journey, demonstrating the transformative power of dedicated retreat practice.
Looking ahead to 2025, DPK is actively working to secure funding to continue expanding its vision and resources. Rooted in the Longchen Nyingthig lineage, the center remains committed to supporting practitioners on their path to enlightenment through authentic and profound teachings.
Join us in upholding the timeless wisdom of the Buddha Dharma at Drupdey Pelchen Khang.
