Valle de Bravo
The great Stupa Bon for world peace is dedicated to the Venerable Lopon Senge Tenzin, master Dzogchen of the V. Yongdzin Tenzin Namdak Rinpoche, and Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche. It is the second Stupa Bön built in Mexico, and is the largest of this lineage in the West. It has a height of 34 m and a surface area of 400 m2.
On December 4, 2010, we had the honor of receiving Venerable Yongdzin Tenzin Namdak accompanied by Khenpo Tenpa Yungdrung Rinpoche, Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche and other teachers and monks for the grand event of the consecration. We also have the presence of our dear Tulku Pondse Jigme Tenzin (Jorge Rene Valles) as well as several representatives of different Buddhist traditions present in Mexico.
Accompanied by our brothers of the national and international Sangha we celebrate with great joy the consecration of the Stupa.
