In Year 2009, Kyabje Mindrolling Ugyen Choephel Rinpoche has
actively fund raised to sponsor the building of a retreat
centre at Mindrolling. The earth breaking and consecration
ceremony of the land was performed by H.E. Shechen Rabjam
Rinpoche and H.E. Khochen Rinpoche. The construction and
building was started in the winter of 2009/2010. The
Mindrolling Monastery is grateful to Ugyen Chophel Rinpoche and
his students in Malaysia and Singapore for their efforts.
On 2nd December 2011, the newly constructed retreat centre,
Drubde Ösel Ling was inaugurated at Mindrolling by Their
Eminences Khenchen Rinpoche, Ugyen Choephel Rinpoche and
Jetsün Khandro Rinpoche. This newly built retreat centre was
built by the effort of Ugyen Chöephel Rinpoche and the many
donors and disciples of Malaysia and Singapore. The retreat
centre has 25 fully furnished retreat rooms, two shrine rooms,
kitchen and staff quarters and all facilities needed for short
and long term retreats.
At the inauguration HE Ugyen Chöephel Rinpoche addressed the
gathering and expressed his devotion and gratitude to Kyabje
Mindrolling Trichen and the precious lineage of Mindrolling. He spoke of
the importance of retreats and his delight at being able to
accomplish his vision of building the retreat centre. He also
