DRUK KUNZIG LING
Drukpa Hamburg invites you to learn about the teachings and humanitarian work of the over 1000-year-old Buddhist Drukpa Order, which is characterized by charity and human dignity. It is also known as "Dongyu Palden Drukpa", the "spiritual lineage of the glorious dragons".
Visiting Hamburg
On March 29 and 30, Venerable Drubpon Ngawang Tenzin gave teachings on the prayer "The King of All Wish Prayers"—one of the most important prayers in Vajrayana and Mahayana Buddhism. Drubponla carefully structured the explanations of this comprehensive text to enable us all to understand it clearly. He explained the meaning of the verses section by section. In particular, his detailed explanation of the seven branches at the beginning of the prayer laid a valuable foundation. Read more about the visit here.
ARTE DOCU
The Drukpa Kung-Fu nuns of Nepal lead an extraordinary life as women who have chosen to live a monastic life. The Gyalwang Drukpa, a tireless advocate for women's equality and climate protection, has given them a truly unparalleled education, which also includes life outside the monastic protocol. As ambassadors of Live To Love, they are achieving great things and have become internationally known as a result. Arte TV provides insights and inspiration in a fantastic documentary.

At the first Drukpa Council in 2009 (ADC), H.H. the Gyalwang Drukpa encouraged the masters of the order to also get to know the centers in Europe and to make people more familiar with the teachings of the philosophy of Buddhism here as well. It is therefore thanks to him that Hamburg is also repeatedly honored by high dignitaries of the Drukpa Order.
H.H. the Gyalwang Drukpa himself has visited Hamburg with a multitude of very beneficial appearances, interviews and meetings and further on in the context of Live To Love various events in Europe.
