Tsoknyi Nuns

Tsoknyi Nuns Supporting Tsoknyi Rinpoche's vision to cultivate enlightenment in female form. Tsoknyi Rinpoche’s nuns are part of a wisdom tradition long preserved in Tibet.

The Tsoknyi Nuns are located in Nepal and receive support from a worldwide sangha. In the 19th century, Tsoknyi Rinpoche the First designed and developed a system of practices for the transformation and enlightenment of female practitioners. He envisioned a time when these women would become among the most accomplished Buddhist practitioners in the world. The expression of Dharma through the femal

e form is important and unique. Qualities such as gentleness, motherly care, and loving energy are quite strong in the female form and very healing for the world.

Tsoknyi Rinpoche and the nuns are offering prayers for those who have died in the recent flooding in Nepal, and for all those affected.

Our hearts are with the families and communities facing such profound loss. May those who have died be held in prayer, and may all those affected find safety, support, and relief.
