About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Khenpo Dza Tsering Tashi was born in Sershi, Tibet in 1976. He started his Buddhist education at the age of nine and due to his profound experience and knowledge in Buddhist philosophy, he was conferred the title of Khenpo by Khenchen Pema Tsewang. Khenpo was imprisoned in 2003 for two years after Chinese officials claimed that a book he wrote, titled “The future of Tibet” was against Chinese policy. After he was released in 2006, Khenpo left Tibet for India, and went to Dharamsala to receive an audience with His Holiness the Dalai Lama. His Holiness advised him to join Dzongsar Institute in Chauntra, under the guidance of the late Khenchen Rinpoche Kunga Wangchuk where he studied the Sakya commentaries of Sutra and Tantra.
In 2010 he was appointed by the office of His Holiness the Dalai Lama to study Chinese language in Taiwan.
In 2012 Khenpo Tsering Tashi established Yeshikhorlo Tibetan Buddhist Center, which means “Wheel of Wisdom” in Taipei.
Since then, Khenpo has been teaching Dharma at least four days a week. Other online courses he teaches include The Words of My Perfect Teacher, A Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life, Entering the Middle Way, Uttaratantra, The Vajra Cutter Sutra, and The Heart Sutra.
In 2016 Khenpo Tsering Tashi resettled in Sydney, Australia under the arrangement of UN Refugee Agency, Humanitarian program in Australia and the Tibetan government in exile.
Khenpo has also published many books and translated several renowned classical literatures including 6th Patriarch Zen Master Hui Neng’s “Platform Sutra” and Dao Te Ching from Chinese into Tibetan. In 2011, Khenpo also compiled a prayer book for Garchen Rinpoche on “Calling the Guru from afar”.
