Bon is the ancient Tibetan native culture and religion
of Tibet.
Shen means a practitioner of Compassion.
Ling means a place or land
Bon Shen Ling is a place for the Bon practice of
Compassion.
Chongtul Rinpoche has been teaching Bon religion in
North America for the past ten years. Each year,
because of a growing interest in meditation and in Bon
religion, the number of interested students increases.
Chongtul believes that this interest in Bon –
particularly the Bon Dzogchen meditation system --
reflects a growing desire for peace, and that the
ancient teachings of Bon offer a path to positive
change in the life of an individual who is seeking
peace, tranquility, and compassion in today’s world.
Although many westerners feel a natural connection
with Tibetans and their culture, the ancient practice
of Bon meditation applies equally well to people who
have been born in many various times and places.
Through the serious study and practice of this system,
one can achieve peace within oneself which will
naturally extend to ones’ relationship with other
humans, as well as with the animal world and the
entire natural world.
Chongtul Rinpoche established Bon Bon Shen Ling in
2006 as a way to preserve and share ancient Tibetan
teachings from an unbroken lineage of great teachers.
Also known as Tog Den Won Po, Chongtul Rinpoche
believes that these unique teachings will have great
relevance for everyone.
