Introduction
Our Mission
Gaden Shartse Dro-Phen Ling (GSDPL) was established in the aim of propagating the pure teachings of Lord Buddha Shakyamuni, as well as promoting Tibetan Buddhism, especially the Gelug lineage of Lama Tsong Khapa, in Singapore. We hope to provide a conducive environment for one’s dharma study and meditation and be a place for dharma friends to gather and practise together.
Our Roots
Gaden Shartse Dro-Phen Ling is established by our dearest teacher, the late Khensur Kyabje Lati Rinpoche. We are a direct collegiate affiliate of Gaden Shartse Norling College, a distinguished monastic institution originating from Tibet, which later reestablished in Mundgod, South India.
The first part of our name “Gaden Shartse” symbolize that our roots hail from Gaden Shartse Monastery. The second part of our name “Dro-Phen Ling” was auspiciously conferred upon by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama in Gaden Monastery in the December of 2001.
We managed to find an appropriate premise for the location of the centre, and officially started in July 2002. Gaden Shartse Dro-Phen Ling continues to grow from strength to strength with a current base of 3,000 members.
What we offer
Other than regular teachings and large-scale pujas held for the public, GSDPL also conduct pujas on a personal basis upon request. Pujas help one increase merits, invokes ripening of positive potential, and pacifies the negative conditions, ultimately helping to clear one’s obstacles. We have resident elderly Old Geshes who are very experienced in the art of divination; upon request, they can help determine various pujas that will be beneficial to each individual.
Kindly visit the centre personally should you visit to request for a divination to be done. Thank you.
