During the years 2000-2001 when Yongdzin Rinpoche Lopn Tenzin Namdak was looking
for a center in Europe Yeshe Rabphel Ritr was conceived. At this period it was difficult to
find a peaceful place for him to stay; in Nepal there was a riot with the Maos and in Europe
no place was found yet after the suggested places in Paris and in Les Vosges failed.
Chgyal Namkhai Norbus advice was asked for and he gave his `blessing and bestowed
valuable advice, too. Also Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche supported the project and promissed to
continue teaching the Chagtri in Europe when it will be established.
Since building activities, individual and collective practices, retreats and teachings as well as
courses are taking place. In 2003 Yongdzin Rinpoche Lopon Tenzin Namdak together with
Khenpo Tenpa Yungdrung and some Geshes came for several days; he empowered the place
and gave some transmissions. In 2007 Khenpo stayed for several days and we newly
enshrined the complete collection of the Kanjur and Katen together with the complete works
of Shardza Tashi Gyaltsen and Yongdzin Rinpoche as well as other texts. Chongtrul Rinpoche
made a visit and Geshe Geleg taught the practice of Tsalung and Tummo in the context of
Dzogchen in 2009 and 2010. Dzogchen teachings and transmissions were bestowed by Menri
Lopon Trinle Nyima, Khenpo Tenpa Yungdrung and Geshe Gelek.
The place is situated in south-eastern part of Bavaria called Lower Bavaria about 100 km
from Munich and the same distance from Austria and Czech Republic. The nearest airports
are Munich (80 km) and Salzburg (110 km); highway connection Munich-Passau is reached in
about 15 kilometers.
The land extends for some 11.ooo m2 situated on top of a hill and overlocking a small valley
with a winding rivulet above the small village called Aham. There are two houses for practice,
study and family life on several hundred square meters. Retreat rooms with daylight and a
dark retreat room and outside facilities are nearly finished. The foundation of a Lukang is laid.
Personal archives of teachings are checked and coordinated with those of other practitioners
and possibly Shenten.
The main emphasis of the retreat place is on individual and collective Dzogchen Practices, but
also on deep instructions and transmissions.
