About His Eminence Zasep Rinpoche
His Eminence Zasep Tulku Rinpoche, a highly realized and internationally respected teacher of Gelugpa Buddhism, was born in Tibet in the province of Kham in 1948. Zasep Tulku Rinpoche was recognized as the 13th incarnation of Lama Konchog Tenzin of Zuru Monastery. In 1959, he left Tibet and continued his education for sixteen years in India under the tutelage of many of the greatest teachers of Mahayana Buddhism. Since 1976 he has taught western Dharma students in Australia, Canada, and the United States and has developed Dharma centers in each of these countries. Rinpoche regularly visits these centers and offers extensive teachings, initiations and retreats, which his many students enthusiastically attend. Zasep Rinpoche now resides in Nelson, BC, close to the Gaden for the West retreat center (Gaden Tashi Choling Retreat).
Description and Benefits
According CBC news we have more older people then children in Canada and Japan, people live long lives which is good at the same time, so many older and seniors are losing their memories. In the west sadly many young people do drugs and use too much social media, their learning capacities weakened and declining, also people suffering from brain injuries.
White Manjushri is a wisdom deity. One could cultivate seven wisdoms: great wisdom, clear wisdom, rapid wisdom, profound wisdom, teaching wisdom, intellectual wisdom, and composition wisdom. The practice of white Manjushri is wonderful for restoring memories and refreshing mindfulness.
