Palyul Changchub Dargyeling Dallas
Palyul Changchub Dargyeling Buddhist study centers are in the Tibetan Buddhist Nyingma tradition, Palyul lineage, founded by His Holiness Penor Rinpoche (www.palyul.org), and under the direction of Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche with the blessings of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
The PCD Dallas course of study is directed by Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche. PCD Dallas study programs are designed to be in harmony with the courses of study at the Palyul Ling Retreat center in NY (see Summer Retreat, below); which are administered by His Holiness Penor Rinpoche. The Palyul Ling Summer Retreat study program/curriculum is directed by His Holiness Penor Rinpoche and is based on the traditional teaching and study program at the main Palyul monastery in exile: Namdroling Monastery in Bylakuppe, India.
Our goal is to make the teachings of Buddha available to all who wish to follow them. And also to make available to Western students: authentic and accurate teachings from the Palyul lineage of the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism given by highly trained and qualified teachers of impeccable academic soundness and quality.
Students of Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche and His Holiness Penor Rinpoche have been established in Dallas since 1998. Our dream and goal is to achieve the funding to establish a resident palyul lama in Dallas and a permanent space for our center. A resident Palyul lama in Dallas would be an enormous benefit not only for Buddhist students - but for the entire region!
There are also many worthy charitable programs to be expanded at PCD Dallas. PCD Dallas is a non-profit religious group and is currently seeking official non-profit status. We do give receipts for donations but are not yet a 501c3 organization.

His Holiness Penor Rinpoche Head of Palyul Nam Chö Lineage, Nyingma tradition His Holiness Penor Rinpoche Austin, Texas Practice Advice
His Holiness Pema Norbu (Penor) Rinpoche is the 11th throneholder (head) of the Palyul Lineage of the Nyingma tradition, an incarnation of Vimalamitra. He is renowned as a master of Dzogchen practice and for the integrity and strength with which he upholds the teachings of the Dharma. He recently retired from the post of Supreme Head of the Nyingma tradition, the oldest of the schools of Tibetan Buddhism, after many years service; succeeded by Mindroling Thrichen Rinpoche. Palyul centers worldwide offer teachings in the Dharma including Meditation, Dzogchen, and more.
For further reading regarding the Palyul Lineage, please see: A Garland of Immortal Wish Fulfilling Trees: The Palyul Tradition of Nyingmapa by Venerable Tsering Lama Jampal Zangpo and Sangye Khandro, Snow
Lion Publications, 1988.
His Holiness' main monastery is Namdroling, in South India, home also to the Ngagyar Nyingma Institute, where hundreds of lamas study and graduate from a ten-year program which includes a three-year retreat. Three senior khenpos (Professors of Buddhist philosophy) - Khenchen Pema Sherab Rinpoche, Khenchen Namdrol Rinpoche, and Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche - oversee the education
of the thousands of monks and nuns enrolled in study at shedra (Buddhist
seminary college).
His Holiness' main worldwide representative is Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche. Palyul Centers for practice are located internationally, including India, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, UK, Europe and America.

Prayers, Mantras and Long Life Prayers for Teachers Link
Khenchen (Head Professor) Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche the spiritual director of Palyul Changchub Dargyeling Meditation
and Study Centers in the United States.
Khenchen
Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche
is
the representative of
His Holiness Penor Rinpoche
in
the US. He
is
an authentic and qualified teacher,
a
recognized
scholar
and
accomplished
Dzogchen
master. His
Holiness Penor Rinpoche (founder and head of Namdroling Monastery,
Bylakuppe, India, see
www.palyul.org) has
authorized Khenchen
Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche to represent
Namdroling Monastery and
to teach,
confer
empowerments
and to give personal instruction in Buddhist practice.
Khenchen
Rinpoche is also one
of the three senior Khenpos (Professors) at Ngagyur Institute at Namdroling
Monastery
in India; where he is responsible for the last three years of the
nine year training for Buddhist shedra
(seminary: lama training) students.
Khenchen Rinpoche has been teaching in West for over 20 years; and his fluent English, sense of humor and deep insight into Western culture make him a reputable and popular teacher. He graduated at the top of all four traditions of Tibetan Buddhism in shedra (seminary school) and was awarded the Silver Medal
for academic accomplishment
by His
Holiness the Dalai Lama.
Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche has been our best-kept 'secret' in the US! His ability to simply and easily explain and teach even the most complicated concepts in a very condensed form has led to his teaching commitments growing expotentially beyond the US. This year, he is traveling and teaching in India, Singapore, Taiwan, the Philippines, Germany and Australia, as well as the US.
Khenchen Tsewang Gyatso Rinpoche has received all of the major lineage empowerments and transmissions of the Nyingma school and Palyul lineage and has done intensive dzogchen practice under the guidance of His Holiness Penor Rinpoche and other eminent dzogchen masters including Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, Khenpo Jigme Phuntsok Rinpoche, Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche, Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche and Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche.
Palyul Changchub Dargyeling Dallas is honored to have Khenchen Rinpoche as Spiritual Director.
