Benchen Monastery express their deep sadness over the passing of Khenchen Vajradhara Tsültrim Gyamtso Rinpoche. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the teachers and students of Osel Karma Tekchok Ling Nunnery and Karma Drubdey Palmo Choskyr Dingkhang, as well as all who are mourning his loss.

Khenchen Vajradhara Tsültrim Gyamtso Rinpoche was a prolific Scholar, accomplished Buddhist Meditation master, and Poet of the Kagyü School of Tibetan Buddhism. Renowned for his Dohas (songs of realization) and often praised as an Emanation of Milarepa, his passing is a significant loss for the Buddha Dharma, especially for the Kagyü lineage
