Reincarnation Wangdrak Dorje

Wangdrak Rinpoche is the abbot of Gebchak Gonpa, holding responsibility for the nuns' spiritual training and their material well-being.

Wangdrak Rinpoche the third is the reincarnation of Wangdrak Dorje. Along with the first Tsangyang Gyatso Rinpoche, Wangdrak Dorje was instrumental in building Gebchak Gonpa, and was renowned for his total mastery of the profound practices of Tsa-Lung.

The present incarnation received a Khenpo degree from Dzongsar College, well known as the best college in all of Tibet for non-sectarian scriptural study. He has also received a remarkably broad training in the practices and rituals of the Nyingma, Sakya and Kagyu traditions.

After completion of his studies and several years of teaching, Wangdrak Rinpoche was repeatedly requested by Tsoknyi Rinpoche and the Gebchak nuns' to accept formal responsibility for the spiritual and material well-being of the nunnery. Along with caring for his students from all over the globe, this is the end to which he continually works.[1][2]
