| bio | The great accomplished practitioner, H.E. Drubwang Konchok Norbu Rinpoche was born in Drikung, Tibet in 1921. He entered Drikung Nyima Changra Buddhist Institute at a very young age and studied Buddhist philosophy. After his graduation, Drubwang Rinpoche became the disciple of one of the foremost contemporary retreat masters of the Drikung Kagyu lineage, Drubwang Pachung Rinpoche (1901-1988). Under the guidance of Drubwang Pachung Rinpoche, Drubwang Konchok Norbu Rinpoche went on retreat for many years and eventually gained the supreme experiential understanding of Mahamudra. At the request of H.H. The 14th Dalai Lama, Drubwang Rinpoche traveled to different countries such as India, Nepal, Singapore, Malaysia, USA, and Taiwan to propagate the practice of Avalokiteshvara's six-syllable mantra. Through his deep compassion, he encouraged and inspired people to do the simplest of all dharma practices, extend kindness, and recite the mantras of the three kayas: Om Ami Dewa Hrih (mantra of Amitabha), Om Mani Padme Hung (mantra of Avalokiteshvara), [and] Om Ah Hung Benzra Guru Padma Siddhi Hung (mantra of Guru Rinpoche). Drubwang Rinpoche initiated the first Singapore 100 Million Mani Recitation Retreat in 2001. Accumulation of the 100 million Mani mantra was achieved. The retreat has since become an annual dharma event in Singapore. On 25 December 2007, Drubwang Rinpoche passed into parinirvana in Singapore. Rinpoche was remembered for his genuine teachings and straightforward advice. His compassion and his effort in propagating the six-syllable mantra have served as a great inspiration to many.
