About Drupon Khen Rinpoche
Rinpoche’s teachings are for those looking to challenge their limitations and cosy corners of ignorance—particularly those with the courage to reassess their current perspectives and extend the scope of their concern to encompass as many others as possible. In Rinpoche’s approach, nothing is deemed too sacred to escape analysis: one’s practice, knowledge, personal hang-ups, the Buddha, Buddhist institutions and traditions, and Rinpoche himself are all open to scrutiny. If you are open-minded, wish to make progress in your practice, care about the authentic teachings of the Buddha and how they might be integrated into the West, you may find these teachings insightful and are most welcome to attend.
