On May 20th, 2026, Mindrolling Monastery began the yearly profound and sacred drubchö of Minling Dorsem (Vajrasattva). This annual seven-day drubchö is held during the sacred month of Saga Dawa, and the gathered assembly makes vast offerings, prayers, and aspirations to commemorate the birth, enlightenment. and mahaparinirvana of Buddha Shakyamuni. The terma of Minling Dorsem was revealed by the founder of Mindrolling, Dharma King Terdag Lingpa, and is considered the single essence of all sadhana practices.
This year the drubchö is blessed with the presence of Minling Dungse Rinpoche who presides over this profound practice continuing the lineage of the great masters of Mindrolling who have always emphasized the foremost importance of practice and accomplishment of Dharma. The drubchö is being led by the senior rinpoches, khenpos, and monks of Mindrolling Monastery. The entire assembly rejoices that such a profound practice can be accomplished with the leadership of the new generation of teachers with strong aspirations that their accomplishment and activity will flourish and benefit beings for many years to come.
The Minling Dorsem drubchö is dedicated to purifying the negative karma of sentient beings and accumulating vast merit for their benefit. Through the power and strength of the inconceivable activity of Vajrasattva, may all beings be purified of their negative karma and may they enjoy all good circumstances on the path to liberation.
