Newest pictures of His Holiness Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche's recent visit to Rabten choeling, Switzerland. Pictures were taken about 2 weeks ago and love to share with everyone here.. Long live H.H. Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche.

So many wonderful and beautiful pictures of HH in regal and commanding poise turning the wheel of dharma as in all His previous incarnations, and the presence of many high tulkus and sangha members who have past and present spiritual connections with HH gathered together.
The dawning of the new age of highly attained beings who want liberation for others, who tirelessly work in spreading the teachings of Lama Tsongkhapa and the practice of Dorje Shugden.
May His Holiness Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche and all highly realized beings live long.
Thank you, donoharm.

I saw this amazing picture of these great Lamas or Bodhisattvas together... this is the first time i saw Gangchen Rinpoche with a white beard! He looks so distinguished but a poignant reminder that time is passing so fast and his human body is aging and soon he will no longer be with us. Yet, the young HH Trijang Choktrul and Rabten Rinpoche are reminders that these great masters will continue to come back to our world to benefit us. The difference between us and them is that most of us are not creating the causes for us to come back in human form, let alone in conducive conditions. Definitely something sobering to think about.

Wow! These are such exciting photos of the Lamas gathering together and its so amazing to see these great beings all gathered together under one roof. Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche looks a little weary, probably from traveling and meeting people.
I think it is beautiful that he is traveling more and perhaps, he is working on lifting the ban his way and for him to be travelling to much these days is a powerful blessing for this to happen in the near future. I think he is just preparing people for that to come real soon.

The coming of age of a great spiritual master, Trijang Choktrul Rinpoche. It is really great news that Trijang Rinpoche has decided to start to turn the Dharma wheel by teaching and giving initiations! Seeing these pictures makes me rejoice because Trijang Rinpoche's life was in danger when he was living in Shar Gaden. This is because he is a strong practitioner of Dorje Shugden.
Thank you for posting up these beautiful pictures. Also seeing the new generation of great masters coming of age like Rabten Rinpoche gives us hope that BUddhism will continue to flourish. Also this is evidence of reincarnation exist and Dorje Shugden is not a spirit because we still have our young masters here not not in the lower realms, for worshipping a spirit.
Also, thanks to Gonsar Rinpoche and Gangchen RInpoche for nurturing these young masters.

Its wonderful news that HH Trijang Chocktrul Rinpoche is continuing to turn the wheel of Dharma. The times of change is fast approaching. All the potent pieces of this Dharmic chess game is coming to play. It will be exciting times to come with this renaissance of Buddhism in this degenerate times.
This is however still my favourite picture:

Look at all these wonderful pictures people! Don't even blink an eye, His Holiness Trijang is back and spreading dharma and seen by all and very active. How wonderful he is back to turn the wheel of dharma. What an accomplished master. And take one good look at the picture of him with His Holiness the Dalai Lama, how can it be wrong? How can His Holiness Dalai Lama's teacher is wrong? I rejoice for the return of a high attained Buddha and hand in hand spreading dharma with his disciples.

you welcome everyone for the pictures... i was there in person for hh teachings .. i am speechless, Teachings are beyond my expectations. he is no young boy like many people think. I have no doubt HH trijang chocktrul rinpoche will be the "ONE" who will save/spread Dorje shugden all over the world.. not karmapa.. i saw this http://www.dorjeshugden.com/all-articles/features/will-the-karmapa-save-dorje-shugden/ (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/all-articles/features/will-the-karmapa-save-dorje-shugden/) make no sense. have a good weekend everyone. Always peace.

Oh my what amazing pictures of Trijang Choktrul Rinpoche... wow in awe on how regal he is on the throne! Much rejoice is seeing these amazing pix. How lucky you are donoharm to have actually been here to receive teachings by one of the world's most erudite master of our time. We see Trijang Rinpoche more and more often these days giving teachings publicly shows that the spread of Je Tsongkhapa's teachings will spread further and definitely also our protector's teachings no doubt!
May His Holiness Trijang Rinpoche live long to turn the wheel of Dharma... I pray and wish him swift success in all his works :)

Hey then youll know this - whose that sitting next to Gangchen Rinpoche in the grey robes?

The charioteer of the Buddha is now turning the wheel of dharma for sentient beings yet again. Hope Trijang Rinpoche will go to China as well, the Chinese will get so much blessings to host Trijang Rinpoche.

Trijang Rinpoche is a really amazing Dharma teacher that does not stop benefitting others no matter what happens, even if he got death threats and have to migrate to the US, it did not stop him at all from doing Dharma deeds. What I do pity though is that it caused HHDL to have such strained connections with his Guru, and I am sure no real practitioner would actually want that to happen or want to go through that painful process or fact.
Now that Trijang Rinpoche is not constrained by the CTA, he can go to China, Mongolia, Russia, US, Europe etc etc to give huge teachings and his presence alone would be a huge blessing to anyone who sees him.
CTA can only lose if they go head on against Trijang Rinpoche.

Thanks for sharing all this wonderful images. HH Trijang Rinpoche have "re-started" the teaching path in this life, Trijang Rinpoche have been quiet for sometime after the ban. It's wonderful all the powerful dharma teachers are gather together, and more powerful dharma teachers will arise from there. The unbroken lineage of Gelug will be continue for future generation.
The whole world know about Dorje Shugden, thanks to the ban that brought more than enough attention to the public. HHDL is getting older day by day and he have been quiet about DS issues, at the same time Trijang Rinpoche is giving various empowerment to shangha and public. Do you think all these drama rama was plotted and planned for the bigger picture?
When HHDL retired and HH Trijang Rinpoche will take over from there, with the attention that brought up from the Ban, people already aware about Dorje Shugden. It will be easier for DS lamas to turn the dharma wheel of DS. Don't you think so ??

@DharmaDefender The person in the grey robes is H.E. Panglung Rinpoche. Rinpoche currently resides in Munich, Germany. I think that this is the monastery where he teaches at: http://www.norbuling.de/html/norbuling_eng.htm. (http://www.norbuling.de/html/norbuling_eng.htm.) He is the head lama of Panglung monastery, and is also now a teacher at the University of Munich...
I hope that the info above is correct. Correct me if I'm wrong!

Here are some more pictures i found during HH Trijang Rinpoche’s trip to Europe. The first two are a bit small but i couldn't find bigger versions. Anyway, they are lovely pics of HH Trijang Rinpoche, HE Gangchen Rinpoche and Ven. Tenzin Rabgyay Rinpoche (incarnation of Rabten Rinpoche) throwing tsampa, i believe. The last picture is a nice casual shot of HH Trijang Rinpoche and Rabgyay Rinpoche at the dining table.

If there is one name that hardly any Tibetan is not familiar with, or any practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism has not heard of, is Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche. Trijang Rinpoche was seen by many as the emanation of Vajrayogini and His Holiness’s line of reincarnation traces back to Chandra, Prince Siddharta charioteer, Chandrakirti and Atisha.
His Holiness The 14th Dalai Lama was not the only student of Trijang and in fact, most of the present Lamas and Geshes have been Trijang Rinpoche’s direct students, or students of his students. It is Trijang Rinpoche’s words that the Tibetan National Anthem carries and so vast is Trijang Rinpoche’s influence In Tibet. Suffice to say, to many Kyabje Triang Rinpoche is an ocean of wisdom and compassion and his name is sacred.
His Holiness Kyabje Trijang Choktrul Rinpoche is the present reincarnation of the beloved Trijang Rinpoche recognized by the Dalai Lama himself. In the Dalai Lama’s aggressive crusade against Dorje Shugden His Holiness made many statements two of which, in my opinion hint of the Dalai Lama’s surreptitious plan to spread the Protector practice.
One is the Dalai Lama making Trijang Choktrul Rinpoche the only exception to the Dorje Shugden ban. The Dalai Lama gave the reason that Trijang Rinpoche is the only one who can “control” Dorje Shugden, after making the Protector out to be such a powerful force that can even imperil the Dalai Lama’s life. In this way, the Dalai Lama implies that Trijang Rinpoche is an extraordinary being with super high attainments. By empowering such an influential lama (who is also authorized by the Ganden Tripa, the throne-holder of the Gelupas to officially represent Tsongkhapa’s lineage) to keep practicing Dorje Shugden, isn’t the Dalai Lama creating a powerful counter force to His Holiness’s own ban?
Two is the Dalai Lama claiming that his teachers, which clearly includes Trijang Rinpoche, was “wrong” to have practiced Dorje Shugden. Whether by design or not, in that statement itself the Dalai Lama pitched his rickety reasons from imposing the ban against the untouchable reputation of Trijang Rinpoche. The Dalai Lama essentially undermined his own credibility because if Trijang was wrong, then it follows that the Dalai Lama must also wrong. Also how can Trijang Rinpoche who performed so many incredible feats to benefit the Tibetan people and Tibetan Buddhism, be wrong? How can someone practice “demon worship” and yet do so much to preserve and transmit the pure lineages of the Buddha’s teachings?
Trijang Choktrul Rinpoche has stated that his only wish was to continue the legacy left by his previous reincarnation Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche. Trijang Choktrul has remained relatively low key but now his emergence in public to give teachings and blessings is a sure sign of positive developments to come.
Some anti-Shugden monks have said that Trijang Choktrul will be unable to fully develop his practice of Dorje Shugden because in order to do so, the practitioner has to be a pure monk. Big Uncle drawing the example of Serkong Dorje Chang in another Trijang related post is a good one. I can’t wait to see more of Trijang Choktrul in public and for sure, as and when Trijang Rinpoche makes his statement on Dorje Shugden, whether verbal or through his actions, it will definitely shake the ban to its core if not cause it to crumble completely.

You know, on the topic of Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche, I wonder what's in store for this young Tulku. He seemed to have picked up on traveling a lot and visiting monasteries in Mongolia (lucky them) and now in Switzerland. I am sure, he has been in contact with various Lamas and monasteries but have kept it hush hush. I just wonder where is he going to go next? He is suppose to a part of Shar Gaden (as far as I know he has not stepped foot in Shar Gaden), would he go there and be a part of the monastery?
I just feel with all this travelling, it is a dawn of a new era where Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche will rise like before to become one of the leading Lamas of our tradition to spread Dorje Shugden. I believe that would be what Kyabje Trijang Rinpoche would want to do and he has already started by telling the great center in Switzerland to start inviting Kyabje Pabongka Rinpoche to come. For me, that's him paving the way for Dorje Shugden to grow very big because Dorje Shugden is the lineage of previous and current Pabongka Rinpoche.

When Trijang Rinpoche and Pabongkha Rinpoche becomes big in the world, especially in the few nations of the world where wealth is most concentrated (Switzerland for example), the ban will not be able to hold on. It will crack and fall off and the Dalai Lama's influence will be challenged by these great masters. At that time HHDL will have no choice but to lift the ban but it would be too late for CTA to turn around and apologize to these great masters, perhaps CTA will no longer exist during that time, given the huge negative repercussions they have been amassing all along.

Pabongka Rinpoche I heard is active in China which is undisputedly one of the top nations in the world. One of the Pabongka Rinpoche's previous incarnation was Changkya Rolpa Dorje who was the advisor and teacher to the emperor of China. So Pabongka Rinpoche is now back in China, I believe it is no coincidence. He is back in China again to turn the wheel of dharma how auspicious. Imagine China leads the Dorje Shugden movement and acts as a beacon for the Protector to spread to the rest of the world.

If Dorje Shugden is spread from China.... it would be HUGE! Whether or not there is a BAN, no one and nothing can STOP it... not if it coming from China. The dragon will rise again. From China it will spill over to the entire a world and who dares object to Shugden practice then? There is no REAL legal Law against Dorje Shugden practice.
The Ban is only directly imposed on the Tibetans in India... and it is in reality not even a country's law or a national legal instituted law that can affect anyone really if we think about it. It is a self created and self imposed law for the Tibetan community in exile which has no basis to even exist... it only exist because fanatical pro Dalai Lama politicians and people choose for it to be so to cover and control their own failures to lead their people and to hide their broken promises about Tibet's freedom.
You're right DHarmaSpace, Pabongkha being in China is no coincident and it feels like the legacy will repeat itself.... China seems to be the leader in everything today, I will not be surprise if it leads the Dorje Shugden movement and acts as a beacon for the Protector to spread to the rest of the world... Definitely the future looks like so.

Rejoicig indeed! When Trijang Rinpoche left Gaden Monastery when he was very young due to death threat, he first went to Rabten Choeling and stayed there for some time, and high lama like Gonsar Rinpoche took very good care of him. And now that Trijang Rinpoche is matured, he comes back to the place which nurtured and took care of him, and reciprocated with Dharma. How wonderful this relationship is. I wonder if Trijang Rinpoche is ever going back to India as well? And will it be Shar Gaden or Gaden Shartse? I heard that his Khangtsen already moved to Shar Gaden. It would be great to see him back to his HOME again, be it Shar Gaden or Gaden Shartse.

When Trijang Rinpoche rises, he will return to Shar Ganden and bless the sangha there. And perhaps, before that happens, the ban is lifted and the Dorje Shugden detractors will be silenced by their own negative actions and they will be left wondering what happened and it would be difficult for them to reconcile with the fact that Dorje Shugden is a Buddha and that they were wrong from the start, and as a painful lesson to not go for blind belief.
