TEACHER
H.H. the 9th Neyphug Trulku Rinpoche
Since graduating as Professor of Buddhism, Rinpoche has been invited to give teachings, classes, and empowerments in different countries.
Those who attend Rinpoche’s teachings and talks often remark that, if not for His monastic robes, one might mistake Him for a stand-up comedian. His classes are filled with laughter and warmth—rich with vivid examples, expressive storytelling, and simple explanations that make even the most profound teachings easy to understand.
Rinpoche approaches the Dharma with exceptional care and precision. He preserves the authentic language and meaning of sacred texts, always reading the root scripture in the Dharma language before explaining it in English or other languages, maintaining the unbroken lineage of transmission.
In rituals and sādhanas, He follows the original instructions exactly as received — without alteration, addition, or omission. His choices of practice are always deliberate, selecting those that allow modern practitioners to engage directly and meaningfully.
A notable example is the Medicine Buddha Retreat Sādhana. Having received Karma Chagme’s sky-treasure teachings on Medicine Buddha from His root guru H.H. Thubten Palzang Rinpoche, Rinpoche practised the sādhana and recovered from 2 times of chronic kidney failures. Medical miracles from His recovery journey left medical teams in Singapore astonished. Out of gratitude, He arranged for the sādhana to be romanised and translated, allowing international students to benefit from its blessings — transforming His own healing into inspiration for others.
