Ngakpa Seng-ge Dorje

Ngakpa Seng-gé Dorje—an ex-biker—has been a student of Ngak’chang Rinpoche and Khandro Déchen since 1995 and has practised Buddhism since 1992. He was ordained in 2000. At the behest of his root teachers, Seng-gé has studied a broad rage of Mahayoga symbolic practises, specifically those connected with Ling Gésar –the essence of spiritual warriorship.

Ngakpa Seng-gé is engaged with in-depth studies of Madhyamaka, and puts special emphasis upon the Mahayoga practices of Namkha, amulet making, and the making of sang offerings. He is a married practitioner with a family and a career in school teaching. He presents Dharma from what he hopes is an earthy point of view.

Seng-gé Dorje’s wife Dékyi is a Tibetan whose family come from Amdo. Her parents—who belong to the Nyingma Tradition—live in southern India, and thus he makes regular visits with his family. There is a gö kar chang lo tradition linked with his wife’s family and so he is able to make a direct link with the mother culture of the tradition to which he belongs.
