Khenpo Tenzin Norgay was born in Bhutan and like Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche above, was trained at Ngagyur Nyingma Institute in the Palyul lineage. In 1998, he was formally bestowed the title of Khenpo by His Holiness Penor Rinpoche. Because of his knowledge and fluent command of the English language, as well as his warmth and sense of humor, Khenpo has touched the hearts of many Western students. Also because of this, His Holiness Penor Rinpoche asked Khenpo Tenzin Norgay to live in the U.S. and teach the Dharma to Western students.
Khenpo Tenzin Norgay’s teachings can be found on the Meeting and Entering the Path, Compassion and Bodhicitta, The Faults of Cyclic Existence, Karma, Cause and Effect, The Nature of Your Mind, Taking Refuge & Vows, Vajrayana Practices, Ngöndro, and Free Downloads pages on this site.
