Venerable Gonsar Tulku Rinpoche biography

Venerable Gonsar Rinpoche was born in 1949 in Shigatse, Tibet. At the age of six, he began his traditional studies at Sera Monastery. After the Chinese invasion, he fled to India with his master Geshe Rabten Rinpoche, where he continued his studies.

In 1974 Venerable Gonsar Rinpoche came to Switzerland with his master and continue to support him in all activities, as he had done before in India. He lived with his master for 33 years. After Geshe Rinpoche's parinirvana, he continued Geshe's activities of directing the Centre for Higher Tibetan Studies in Switzerland as well as the affiliated centers in Germany and Austria.

Venerable Gonsar Rinpoche's teachings are of extraordinary clarity, precision, and logic, and his personal example is a great inspiration to the students.
