Lama Khenpo Karpo
Above: Khenpo Karpo & his translator Sonam Dorje, Spiddal, September '06
Khenpo Karpo is the Abbot of Pelphu Drupda Monastery in East Bhutan and senior spiritual director of Jangsar Monastery in Kalimpong, India.
He is a close personal lineage holder of HH Dudjom Rinpoche [1903-1987] and of the remarkable Longchen Nyingthik master Bomta Polo Khen Rinpoche, two of the pre-eminent Dzogchen masters of the twentieth century.
Khenpo is a yogin who has not only received all the transmissions of inner tantra and dzogchen from two of the greatest Nyingma root teachers, but practiced them to authentic realization during many years of solitary retreat in the Bhutanese Himalayas.
His experiential qualifications as a meditation master are impeccable.
