Venerable Lama Chödak Gyatso Nubpa is the resident lama of T'hondup Ling, a center for teaching and practice of
Vajrayana Buddhism in the Tibetan
Nyingma tradition. The center is located in Los Angeles in Los Feliz.
T'hondup Ling, which means literally "to accomplish the purpose," was established in 1987 by
His Eminence Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche, a highly realized meditation master and abbot of Chagdud Gonpa monastery, established in 1131. In 1979, he created the
Chagdud Gonpa Foundation which has established centers for the study and practice of Vajrayana Buddhism in the United States, Canada and Brazil.
You are welcome to join others in preserving the precious living heritage of Tibetan Buddhism. The work of T'hondup Ling is sustained solely by members, donors and volunteers. As a volunteer in any aspect of T'hondup Ling's activities, you will find many opportunities for integrating spiritual practice and work in a supportive atmosphere.
