Tibetan Buddhism Meditation Master - Homage to His Eminence,
Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche
Tibetan Buddhism Meditation Master - Homage to His Eminence, Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche, Stainless Upholder of the Red Hat Lineage, the Nyingmapas of Tibetan Buddhism.
Master of the Dzogchen, the great completion.
The lotus seeds have been sown...may all beings be happy!
Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche passes into parinirvana...
On Saturday evening at 8:07, June 19th, 2010, after his usual extensive practice of Vajrakilaya, the Tibetan Buddhism Meditation Master, Ven. Khenchen Palden Sherab looked at his beloved younger brother, Ven. Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal and announced,
"My karma is now finished."
Then the great Dzogchen Master fearlessly and peacefully closed his eyes to leave this earth plane. His consciously beautiful transition is an example of spiritual fulfillment in an amazing life as an enlightened being. Though resting in joyful awe of his legacy, my heart aches for the true spiritual friend that he was in this life. In honor of my root lama, I wrote this little poem for Khenchen two days prior to his passing:
Stainless Upholder of The Red Hat Lineage
Homage!
Fearless One of the Three Times
I make obeisance to you.
Your light shines as the sun.
Your heart radiates as the moon.
Your mind radiates as the sky.
Merging with The Masters;
The inexorable river flows.
Written in honor of the Tibetan Buddhism Meditation Master, Khenchen Palden Sherab Rinpoche by his loving spiritual friend, Pema Tingdron, New Mexico, June 17, 2010

Ven. Khenchen Palden Rinpoche, the elder of the two "Khenpo Brothers" as they are known throughout the world, is among the last generation of Tibetans fully educated in the monastic system of old Tibet. When he spoke of his life in Tibet, he referred to it as "ancient times." He resided and passed at the large monastery he built with his brother in upstate New York, USA, which he called Padma Samye Ling modeled after the great Samye monastery in Tibet.
Khenchen Palden was the founder of The Padmasambhava Buddhist Centers International with his brother, The Venerable Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche. Visit the many PBC Sanghas for teachings, retreats and group practices in New York (Padma Samye Ling), California (Bay Area), Florida (five centers), Georgia, Illinois, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon, Puerto Rico, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Canada (Quebec and Montreal), India (3 Monasteries), Latvia and Russia (Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Stavropol).
His Eminence was an extraordinary worldwide Dzogchen scholar, author of dozens of books illuminating the Nyingma Lineage.
