H.E. Venerable Che-Nga Rinpoche, from Gampopa Vajrayana Buddhist Center in New Jersey, is our teacher. Rinpoche visits when his schedule permits. We are grateful for his presence,  teachings and blessings.

With remembrance and sincere gratitude to our Late Most Venerable Drongpa Sakyong Drikung Lamchen Gyalpo Rinpoche who blessed and assisted in the founding of Chojung Dorje Ling ~ Flower Dance Temple in 2004.
