Chagdud Khadro

The spiritual director of Chagdud Gonpa Brasil, Uruguay, and Chile and a Khyentse Foundation advisor, Chagdud Khadro works tirelessly for the benefit of beings. In recognition of her contributions and commitment to the Buddhadharma, Khyentse Foundation has awarded Khadro the 2024 Khyentse Fellowship.

Khadro was on pilgrimage in Wutai Shan, China, when she received the news of the award. “I was stunned, then overwhelmed, thinking of the blessings of my teachers, especially Chagdud Rinpoche [1930–2002], and the support of the sangha that have made possible any accomplishment at all,” she says. “I spent the afternoon praying that I can honor the intention of the fellowship. It is so auspicious that this news arrived in a place permeated with the compassion and wisdom of Manjushri. For me Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche is Manjushri, which gives me confidence and faith.”
