The 20th Kushok Bakula was born to a family in Nubra to Yab Dorjey Tsering and Yum Sonam Dolkar and confirmed as reincarnation of Bakula Rinpoche on the 26th February 2008 by His Holiness the Dalai Lama- Tenzin Gyatso. He was enthroned to the seat of Bakula at Spituk monastery, Ladakh on 12th August 2010. Venerable 19th Kushok Bakula Rinpoche lived one of the most motivating lives of a Buddhist lama. Recognized by the Thirteenth Dalai Lama as a reincarnation of Bakula Arhat - one of the Sixteen Arhats -direct disciples of Shakyamuni Buddha who had tremendous spiritual realizations, his role in changing Ladakh’s picture is eminent, especially for ‘social upliftment’ and education. As a Long life Prayer and Tribute to the Young Bakula, Butter Lamp offerings will also be conducted at the end for His Holiness's Long life and Welfare of the Sentient Beings.
