Bakula Rinpoche Khiid
|
|
Bakula Rinpoche |
|
The official name is Pethub
Stangey Choskor Ling Monastery but it is mainly known by the
name of Bakula Rinpoche Khiid. This name refers to its founder:
the former Indian ambassador who is also a reincarnated lama.
It was founded in 1999 and serves primarily as a centre for
Buddhist teaching. |
| In the main temple is a statue of
Buddha Shakyamuni, with on his left side Tsongkhapa. In the back
on the right side is an image of Gandhi. The main temple seems
to be rather closed to tourists. A medicine temple has been opened
on the south side funded by the Tibet Foundation Buddhism in Mongolia
programme. |
