Tulku Lama Tashi Gyaltsan
Rinpoche
In 1991 he came to the United States and formed the Dorje Ling Buddhist Center in Brooklyn, New York, and later formed another Center in Atlanta, Georgia. In October of 1999, Rinpoche was inaugurated as the throne holder of the Jonang Tradition of Tibetan Buddhism at the Zemtong Monastery in Tibet. Many thousands of people attended this blessed event.
Because of his kind effort, the 700-year-old tradition of Jonang has taken root in American soil for the first time. He is dedicated to making Dharma available in his home country and abroad. It is with a pure motivation and true compassion that he wishes to benefit others.
In 1996 he established a school and orphanage for children who did not have parents or family to care for them.
