On December 15th, 2025, the Mindrolling International sangha celebrated the birthday of Minling Jetsün Rinpoche. Minling Dungse Rinpoche led the Mindrolling Ladrang, including Minling Jetsün Khandro Rinpoche, Minling Jetsün Dechen Paldrön, Sangyum Kushog, and Britton la, along with the assembly of Mindrolling Monks, Samten Tse nuns, and Mindrolling International sangha members in offering a vast mandala and body, speech, and mind to Jetsün Rinpoche. The gathered assembly made heartfelt aspirations and dedications for Jetsün Rinpoche’s long life and vast activities.
Once again on the auspicious birthday of Jetsün Rinpoche, the Mindrolling International sangha all joined together to support the dog shelter in Bhutan. The shelter houses, feeds, and provides veterinary care for over 850 dogs in the Paro and Thimpu districts of Bhutan. Thanks to the donations of the sangha, the shelter continues to increase the level of support and care it provides to the dogs by improving their housing, food, and veterinary care. Whatever merit the sangha has joyfully gathered by supporting this wonderful organization is dedicated to the long life, good health, and flourishing activities of Jetsün Rinpoche and the Mindrolling lineage.
During these days in Mindrolling filled with the blessings of Kyabje Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche bestowing the Kama transmissions, all sangha members rejoiced at this happy occasion and felt great delight seeing Jetsün Rinpoche’s excellent qualities and knowing that Rinpoche continues to study, train, and receive all the transmissions necessary to fully hold the Mindrolling Lineage for the future. It was a great joy for all gathered to see that Jetsün Rinpoche will undoubtedly carry the light of wisdom for the next generation of practitioners who seek the genuine Dharma.
