Described as a living embodiment of the bodhisattva ideal, Khandro Tseringma Rinpoche is cherished for her humility, deep wisdom and compassion. While she was not educated within the traditional monastic system, she was recognized by His Holiness the Dalai Lama as a realized practitioner and an oracle of the Tibetan people.
