Venerable Tsering Dorje

 Geshe Doga's Attendant

Venerable Tsering was born in Nepal in 1975.  He was ordained at Sera Jhe Monastery when he was eleven years old where he began studying Buddhist philosophy.  However, Tsering spent a lot of time looking after his teacher and other monks and wasn’t able to devote much time to his studies.  Higher lamas always told him to serve monks as the best way for him to make merit.  He studied up to the Madhyamika level at the monastery.  When he was around 24 years old he came to Australia to study English but ended up becoming Khensur Rinpoche attendant in Adelaide where he spent almost three years.  At the end of 1999 Venerable Tsering moved to Tara Institute to become Geshe Doga’s attendant where he remains to this day.

Dharma Quote

Why is it so important to know the nature of our own mind? Since we all want happiness, enjoyment, peace and satisfaction and these things do not come from ice-cream but from wisdom and the mind, we have to understand what our mind is and how it works.

 Lama Thubten Yeshe
