Riwoche Monks and Nuns
Because of the restrictions put on the Riwoche Monastery and Shedra in Tibet by the communist Chinese government, monks began to leave Tibet. As there was no Riwoche Monastery for them to go to in Nepal or India, they scattered to various Buddhist monasteries in India to attend shedra, monastic college. The Venerable Khenpo Sonam Rinpoche set up the sponsorship program to support them in their studies, and make it possible for them to keep their monastic aspirations.
