It is with great joy we announce that Rinpoché has accepted our teaching request for a commentary on Dolpopa’s “Aspiration Prayer for the Two Stages of the Vajra Path”. This profound, inspiring, energetic prayer, was spontaneously conceived by Dolpopa as he conversed with his students. Encompassing Dolpopa’s compassionate energy, this prayer is an object of inspiration and devotion for those aspiring to enter and progress on the profound path of the Six Vajra Yogas of Kālachakra. It encapsulates all main aspects of the path, focusing on Bodhicitta and devotion to the Lama and the Yidam, while also referencing various aspects of Dharma teachings particularly relevant for practitioners to remember.
Rinpoché’s root Lama, the precious Lama Lobsang Trinley also wrote a commentary on this aspiration prayer, and we are delighted that Rinpoché will share his insights regarding his writings as well. The translation of Dolpopa’s prayer is available online at our Learning Center in the “Unrestricted Prayers and Texts” section and as a hard copy in our printed practice book “The Profound Path of Vajra Yoga.”
The commentary will be divided into three sessions. Rinpoché will bestow it directly from his vajra throne at Dzokden Kalapa in Austria (where he will then guide his students in person in the retreats of the Completion Stage of the Six Vajra Yogas of Kālachakra).

Khentrul RinpocheKhentrul Rinpoché Jamphel Lodrö is the founder and spiritual director of Dzokden. Rinpoche is the author of Unveiling Your Sacred Truth, The Great Middle Way: Clarifying the Jonang View of Other-Emptiness, A Happier Life, and The Hidden Treasure of the Profound Path.
Rinpoche spent the first 20 years of his life herding yak and chanting mantras on the plateaus of Tibet. Inspired by the bodhisattvas, he left his family to study in a variety of monasteries under the guidance of over twenty-five masters in all the Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Due to his non-sectarian approach, he earned himself the title of Rimé (unbiased) Master and was identified as the reincarnation of the famous Kalachakra Master Ngawang Chözin Gyatso. While at the core of his teachings is the recognition that there is great value in the diversity of all spiritual traditions found in this world; he focuses on the Jonang-Shambhala tradition. Kalachakra (wheel of time) teachings contain profound methods to harmonize our external environment with the inner world of body and mind, ultimately bringing about the golden age of peace and harmony (dzokden).
