In the late nineties when the Hermitage was rebuilt, it then became the autonomous institution with minimal ties to Sera. The Hermitage was reverted back when the present incarnations returned to Tibet. When Pabongka Dechen Nyingpo Rinpoche refurbished the prayer hall he built a large temple for Dorje Shugden. The Hermitage is under the care of two elder monks assisted by nuns from nearby. It was lucky that the project of the ruined hermitage was undertaken single handedly by one of Pabongka Rinpoche's student to have a temple to continue with the practice of Dorje Shugden.

Its spaces hold the loving memories of the great Pabongka Rinpoche who we can visualize doing retreats and practices here (in this his hermitage) to Heruka , to Vajrayogini and to Protector Dorje Shugden. Fortunately, there has been some renovation work done. And it's being taken care of by two elder monks and nuns from a hermitage up the hill.

By looking at the old stone walls, it is quite possible. I hope it will be restored to its former glory when Pabongka Rinpoche had it refurbished and expanded and added a temple to Dorje Shugden. I hope to visit this holy place one day. It’s amazing that this hermitage could have been built during the time of Songtsen Gampo in the 7th century!
