Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche (1920–1996) spent thirty-three years at Nagi Gompa Hermitage—twenty of those in retreat—and established six retreat centers and monasteries in Nepal, including Tergar Osel Ling Monastery in Kathmandu. He was recognized as the reincarnation of both the Chowang Tulku and Nubchen Sangye Yeshe (one of Padmasambhava’s principal students). His teachings have been published in the two-volume As It Is and in the new Vajra Heart Revisited, published this year to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of his birth.
