Wish Fulfilling Center for Study and Practice, Nyingmapa College
The Wish Fulfilling Center for study and practice (Nyingmapa College) was established June 4th, 1976 by His Eminence Khetsum Rinpoche under the guidance of His Holiness the previous Dudjom Rinpoche, the head of the Old School. The College started in Southern India in Dalhosi. In 1977 his H.H. Dudjom RInpoche gave teachings on The New Treasure of Dudjom along with empowerments.
After the empowerments H.H. Rinpoche said shedra should move to Nepal to his monastery. Wish Fulfilling College has around 60 monks living and studying there.The teachers Khetsun Rinpoche, Khenpo Tupton, Khenpo Dhazer, H.H. Chatrul Rinpoche, Dheshung Rinpoche and so forth taught shedra.

Shedra is a Tibetan word (བཤད་གྲྭ, bshad grwa) meaning “place of teaching” but specifically refers to the educational program in Tibetan Buddhist monasteries and nunneries. It is usually attended by monks and nuns between their early teen years and early twenties.
In 1988 senior students received their graduation certificate from H.H. Dudjom Rinpoche. In 1993 they established a retreat place in a remote mountain region in Nepal. In 1994 shedra moved to Sundarijal, its current home.
A note from Lama Tsering Gyaltsen
It doesn’t matter how much money you donate to dharma activity but now is the right time to give. Most of the time we don’t use money for the dharma but when difficulties arise it is a good time to give. This is because the dharma is the only remedy to relieve suffering, sickness and the difficulties we experience. Donating also benefits those who have died from the pandemic and will also benefit us in this and future lives. Let us think this way. Your donation will go to the The Wish Fulfilling Center for study and practice (Nyingmapa College) Everyday monks and students are praying and doing dharma ceremonies, offering butter lamps and persevering the buddha dharma for the benefit of all sentient beings. This is rare and precious. |
