Kyabje Thupten Thrinle Palzang, the fourth Dodrubchen (Dodrupchen) Rinpoche passed away on January 25, 2022. An incalculable loss for the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism and for several of us here at Shambhala Publications who knew and loved Rinpoche.
The fourth in a succession of masters whose name means "great siddha from the region of Do", he was a guide to countless other great lamas. He founded a center in western Massachusetts, the Maha Siddha Nyingmapa Center.
