Venerable Lama Lhanang Rinpoche was born in Golok, Amdo northeast of Tibet. As a child, he entered the Thubten Chokor Ling Monastery located in the Gande region, Golok under the guidance of his root teacher Kyabye Orgyen Kusum Lingpa, where in addition to developing a complete monastic education, he trained in the yogi lineage of Anu Yoga.
He was recognized as the rebirth of Ken Rinpoche Damcho, an emanation of Nubchen Namke Nyingpo - one of the 25 disciples of Guru Rinpoche - by the Sang Long Monastery located in eastern Tibet.
He has received teachings from a large number of teachers from the different schools and lineages of Tibetan Buddhism, such as HH Dalai Lama, 4th Dodrupchen Rinpoche, Kyabye Katok Getse Rinpoche, among others.
Lama Lhanang Rinpoche is a teacher of Vajrayana Buddhism, from the Nyingma school of the Longchen Nyingthig lineage. In addition to the instructions of Buddhism, he studied history, astrology, grammar, Tibetan medicine, painting, sculpture, music, theater. All this has led him to share teachings on the proper use of the body, the word and the mind; with the motto: world peace through inner peace .
His life in the West has also been dedicated to sharing the teachings of the Buddha through his painting, in which he reflects his relationship with everyday life, no matter where he is in the world.
He currently lives in San Diego, CA and directs Jigme Lingpa Center, in addition to sharing his teachings in centers in the US, Canada, Europe and Mexico.
