Although Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche already passed away in 1999 and we may not have had the opportunity to meet him in person, we are extremely fortunate to still have some precious footage of him teaching and practising.
Sit with Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche in these short extracts below or watch a longer teaching called “A gift to the world” from San Jose, California in 1989—Available for everyone just for March!
Because these teachings are very precious and carry an incredible blessing, it is good to devote yourself fully to listening to them and to awaken the right motivation.
"Rest in natural great peace.
This exhausted mind.
Beaten helpless by karma and neurotic thoughts
Like the relentless fury of the pounding waves
In the infinite ocean of samsara.
Rest in natural great peace.”
—Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche
About Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche
Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche or Nyoshul Khenpo Jamyang Dorjé, was such a consummate master of Dzogpachenpo, and such an authority on the teachings of Longchenpa, that his disciples regarded him as Longchenpa in the flesh. He was the teacher of many of the younger generation of lamas, as well as a number of western Buddhist teachers. He became one of Sogyal Rinpoche’s most beloved masters.

“Among Khenpo's Western students were a number of Buddhist teachers, who became very devoted to him and included prominent members of the Insight Meditation community. Sharon Salzberg, for example, wrote movingly in her book Faith:

“Khenpo was the most spacious person I’d ever met. It seemed as though the wind passed right through him and translucency was the major component in his makeup. Many times in his company I had the strange sense that we were standing in a wide open field, great empty expanses spreading out in all directions. Even if we were in a crowded little room, the walls closing us in seemed to evaporate. Perhaps this effect was a reflection of Khenpo’s wide-open consciousness and huge unbounded heart. Being with Khenpo was the closest I’d come to experiencing transformation through just being in the presence of a realized person. Yet he was entirely unself-conscious, like a magician unattached to his own magic.”
