Ga Ngawang Legpa Rinpoche

Ga Ngawang Legpa Rinpoche
H. H. Ga Ngawang Legpa is regarded as the second highest Tulku in the Sakya Lineage along with Dabzang Tulku in Washington state. The highest tulku or Sakya Lineage Head is recognized as H. H. Sakya Trizin. He is a great Master of Meditation and the teacher of the 14 year old Seattle born Tulku, Dezhung Rinpoche, who currently resides in Tharlam Monastery.

During H. H. Gyalwa Jampa's visit to Lithang in 2004, H. H. Ga Ngawang Legpa came several times to meet with Gyalwa Jampa and they became friends. His Holiness has plans to come to the United States and teach along with H. H. Gyalwa Jampa in the near future. This photo above shows His Holiness with the crystal etheric weaver pendant he was given by H. H. the Buddha Maitreya during their first meeting.

H. H. Ga Ngawang Legpa was invited to the Recognition Ceremony at the November Prayers for Peace Dharshan. Due to circumstances he was unable to leave Tibet and sent his formal signed, and sealed recognition of the incarnation of Buddha Maitreya.

At the invitation of several high Rinpoches of Lithang, Tibet, H.H. Gyalwa Jampa has agreed to hold a Western Dharshan there in July 2006, as well as attend ceremonies and give teachings. The applications for this dharshan are still available.
