by Light of Kailash Talk #17 with With Khenpo Sangay Dorje, a talk on the sutra tradition, on the occasion of the opening of the exhibition of the Bardo Series in London.
“Through my paintings I have the strong wish to share my thoughts and whatever understanding,
or realisation, or learning about the Bardo and also about mind and death.
These have been my whole life time, most profound, deep interest, I think this has been the most important thing in my life.“
Drugu Choegyal Rinpoche
ABOUT THE ARTIST
While still in his mother’s womb Choegyal Rinpoche was recognized by H.H.16th Gyalwa Karmapa as Choegyal Yonten Gyamtso, the present and 8th Dru-gu Choegyal incarnation in the Drukpa Kagyu lineage. Choegyal Rinpoche took refuge with the Most Venerable Sonam Tenzin and Kathog Getse and was enthroned at the age of four. He spent the subsequent years of his childhood in the Dru-gu region of Tibet, where, he says, “art, spiritual training and meditation practice were inseparable.”
