The venerable Lama Ngawang Rigdzin was born in 1961 into the family of a spiritual healer in Kathmandu, Nepal. From his early years he expressed interest in understanding the true purpose and nature of life. He grew up with the inspiration of his father, a renowned spiritual healer in his native community in the Hilay Chaubas village of Kavre district and a follower of the Tibetan Bon tradition who showed him through experience the benefits of practices such as spiritual distance healing. Young Lama Ngawang Rigdzin began the search for his own spiritual master who would teach him the secrets of the path of Dharma, the ancient teachings of Buddhism.

Initially in 1996 he learned Hatha yoga in 1997-02-07 by the well-known Dr. Yogi Vikasananda, at Siddhi Sadhana International (Ananda Yoga Center) in Satungal, Kathmandu, Nepal and also received initiation into reiki healing power courses 1 & 2 level. After some miracle healing experiences to himself and others, he got inspired to deep study and meditate in Reiki and spiritual path. He took decision to go to the Himalayan region to the remote monastery Serlo gonpa, become lama and started to study about Buddhism to know more secret teachings of healing.

Personal comments from Lama Ngawang Rigdzin

While we experience this human life, such a valuable gift, should not be wasted diverted from its purpose of self-fulfillment, which is to make efforts to serve the well-being of all living creatures. This is the teaching the sages have sent us since ancient times. From the day I understood this, I spent most of my time absorbed in contemplating and meditating on divine cosmic knowledge, although previously I had been involved in the more material interests of family and personal relationships. After a few years I became curious to learn about supreme power and divine healing methods. To shed more light on these concerns I began a quest for truth, which led me from the Himalayas of Nepal to the deserts of India. The point I stand at now, is the intention to serve mankind for the rest of my life. In order to bring healing to those in need, I established the “Bodhisattva Meditation and Treatment Center” at Bijeshwori, kathmandu near to Swayambhunath Through this organization I began using Reiki as a vehicle of healing through compassion. This is how the majority of healers contacted me and received the benefits of cosmic healing energy. Eventually we began working as a unit. I realized that such knowledge should not be kept to individuals but passed on to family members, friends and mankind in general, in order to construct a better tomorrow. That is the reason for the time being with the permission of family I left my family – to spread welfare in the world – and devotion to divine power gave me the hope of serving humanity. It was painful to be away from home, but I was prepared to face all kind of difficulties to further the cause. By the grace of my Gurus and a majority of colleagues we decided to rename the organization and register it as “Nepal Reiki Meditation Center”, dedicated to spiritual practice, cosmic healing and meditation. At the same time, demand for Reiki was surging; this led us to a wider, expanded view of Reiki, opening out to the idea of a Reiki Hospital – a vision both clear and very moving. As I still recall, it was beauty of this vision that made me roll up my sleeves and get to work.
