This supreme abbot of the Surmang monasteries, was also a scholar, teacher and originator of a radical re-presentation of Shambhala vision. Recognized as a preeminent teacher of Tibetan Buddhism, ChogyamTrungpawas a major figure in the dissemination of Tibetan Buddhism to the West, establishing Vajradhatu and Naropa University.

He taught extensively in the United States and Canada from early 1970 until his death in 1987.
