Dingri Langhkor

Dingri Langkhor is a monastery in the high valley of Dingri, north of the Himalayan peaks. The Indian Buddhist master Padampa Sangye founded a hermitage here in 1097 and made it the principal seat of the Zhije, or “Pacification,” tradition. He taught the Tibetan practitioner Machik Labdrön at Dingri, and his teachings became associated with the Chöd lineage as well. His Hundred Verses to the people of Dingri preserve his counsel on spiritual practice.
