Luding Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that supports the teaching, practice and preservation of the authentic Buddhadharma. We are part of the Ngor sub-sect of the Sakya lineage of Tibetan Buddhism and our projects provide direct support to Ngor Monastery and the Sakya Institute of Vajrayana.
Luding Foundation was founded by Luding Khenpo in 2011 to provide direct support to his Dharma activities connected to Ngor Monastery and the Sakya Institute of Vajrayana.
The Foundation currently supports three key projects, which are:
The proper study, contemplation and meditation of the Buddha's teachings are vital to progress along the Buddhist path. The Ngor lineage of the Sakya tradition has produced many great accomplished Buddhist masters and continues to do so to this day.
The Foundation's projects ensure the continuation of the great Ngor lineage.
Ngor Ewam Choden Monastery (Ngor Monastery) was founded in 1429 by the great master Ngorchen Kunga Zangpo (1382-1450). Prophesised by the Buddha,Ngorchen Kunga Zangpo was a brilliant scholar, teacher and Vajramaster.
In 1959, Ngor Monastery was continued by the Ngor Abbot His Eminence Luding Khenchen Rinpoche in a quiet forest in Manduwala, Uttrankhand, Northern India.
The dharma activity of Ngor Lineage continues to flow for the preservation of the authentic Buddhadharma.
