History
The Tergar Osel Ling Monastery was founded in Kathmandu, Nepal by Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche. His son Tsoknyi Rinpoche has overseen the monastery's operations and introduced studies for non-Tibetans. Under his leadership it has "thrived and grown into a mature sangha of dedicated practitioners." Another son, Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, a fully ordained monk, has formally overseen the monastery since 2010. He also opened a shedra, a monastic college in February 2010. His brother, Tsoknyi Rinpoche, has continued to be closely involved in the community. He has been quoted as saying: "Simply let experience take place very freely, so that your open heart is suffused with the tenderness of true compassion."
In 2011 Mingyur Rinpoche, a best selling author, left the monastery for a traveling retreat expected to last 3 years or more.
