Lama Michel Rinpoche was born in 1981 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. It is said that Lama Michel chose to be born in Brazil not only to benefit the whole country and South America, but the whole of contemporary society.
In 1987, His Eminence Lama Gangchen Rinpoche visited Brazil for the first time, invited by Lama Michel’s parents, Bel and Daniel. From this first encounter, a strong connection with the whole family was created. Lama Michel’s family founded the first of many Dharma centres under the guidance of Lama Gangchen. The first was known as the ‘Shi De Choe Tsog’ Centre. Lama Michel’s connection with Tibetan Buddhism would also be clearly evident from this point.
At the age of twelve, Lama Michel spontaneously decided to leave the trappings of lay life behind and began his monastic education in Southern India, where the great Gelug monasteries are now located.
Great Lamas such as Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Dagyab Rinpoche and Gelek Rinpoche have confirmed that Lama Michel is the reincarnation of Drubchok Gyalwa Sandrup, a 15th Century Lama who was a great yogi and master who gave various philosophical teachings. Originating from Gangchen Choepel Ling, a monastery in Tibet, he lived during the time that Lama Tsongkhapa’s Gelug school was founded, and was a contemporary of the 1st Dalai Lama.
It was one of Lama Gangchen’s previous lives, Panchen Zangpo Tashi, who founded Gangchen Choepel Ling Monastery and his successor, the second regent of the throne, was none other than Drubchok Gyalwa Sandrup.
Since an early age, Lama Michel has traveled the world with Lama Gangchen Rinpoche, repeatedly visiting various sacred sites in India, Nepal, Indonesia, Cambodia, Mongolia and Tibet. During these pilgrimages, this special young man had many intuitions, dreams and special visions. Lama Michel’s character and his altruistic attitude then began to manifest themselves in traditional Buddhist ways.
Many people have noticed his pure energy which is akin to the energy of Maitreya, the future Buddha of Love, and his speeches and teachings are delivered in a very loving and kind manner. This is no surprise given that Lama Michel’s Tibetan name is Jangchub Choepel Lobsang Nyendrak which means the ‘Wise and famous Mind of Enlightenment, who spreads the peaceful message of Dharma successfully’. His young, dynamic and charismatic demeanour has enabled people from all walks of life to connect with the Dharma more effectively.

Under the close mentorship of Lama Gangchen Rinpoche, in 2006 Lama Michel began studying at Tashi Lhunpo Monastery, the seat of the Panchen Lamas, in Shigatse, Tibet. There, he devoted himself to studying philosophy, Tantra, medicine and astrology, completing his training in Buddhist Philosophy, meditational practices, Lam Rim and Lojong.
He continues to spend two months a year there, under the guidance of the Abbot, Kachen Losang Puntsok Rinpoche, one of the prominent living masters in Tibet. It is through Lama Michel’s devotion to his Guru and dedication to his studies that he is able to present the Dharma fluently in English and Italian, and even quote from the Tibetan scriptures from memory.
Today, Lama Michel continues to serve his Guru, Lama Gangchen Rinpoche by spreading Lama Tsongkapa’s tradition in the ten directions. He lives in Italy with Lama Gangchen Rinpoche and is currently the Vice-President of the Lama Gangchen International Global Peace Foundation.
With twelve years of study in Buddhist Philosophy under his belt, Lama Michel also imparts his knowledge and experience to others in different parts of the world, especially at the centres of the Lama Gangchen World Peace Foundation in Sao Paolo, Brazil and Albagnano, Italy.

My mother passed away just over 2 months ago and I was very close to her. While she was sick, I took care of her and tried to make her life as comfortable as possible given the pain that she was in. My question is: in Buddhism, do people honor or worship their relatives who have passed, and can they still hear from even after some time has passed?
Hell, many years ago, I was given a beautiful version of the Great Compassionate Mantra sung by Dromtug RINPOCHE. It was gifted to me from my friend, Gontug Rinpoche. Sadly, I can not find that cd.is there any way I could find another recording? It is my absolute favourite. I look forward to hearing back from you 🙏🏼 Margot
THE SKILLFUL METHOD OF THE ORACLE OF VAJRAPANI:
Part One - First Exercise: Purification:
Protector of the Buddha-Dharma Vajrapani is the Buddha of Power holding a Vajra which throws Lightning Bolts of Wisdom Power. Vajrapani is the Keeper of the Secret Oracle Deity whose Chest Mirror repels negativity and transforms into a Lens that magnifies Power. To see and act as the Buddha of Power Vajrapani see clearly through Vajrapani's “Transparent Mirror” and then act with clarity as an Oracle. To cause the Mirror of your Mind to transform from Mirror to Lens you must first rid yourself of The 'Five Obstacles': Aversion, Attachment, Pride, Envy, and Covetousnes. The 'cure', 'trick', 'antidote' is a Purification Practice to see clearly by establishing Objectivity, you polish Vajrapani's Mirror with a contemplative meditation of introspective analysis that polishes and purifies your Mind. Polish your Mind to polish Vajrapani's Mirror to become stainless and transparent, self-reflective like a Mirror, clear and magnifying like a Lens that magnifies your Vision thus beholding all Wisdom in Indra's Net.
To do the precognitive prescient presentement predictions using the Skillful Method of the Oracle of Vajrapani, in your Mind you must first rid yourself of any mental construction of the Five Obstacles to a clear understanding of the Right View by doing a Personal Inventory of the Five Obstacles as ethical transgressions of Thought, Speech, and Behavior in your past, in the present, and predict future inclinations, apply the Antidote and the Wise View appears, which allows the wise right intent to form, which allows right effort to follow, and the right livelihood of successful Oracle Sessions of Prophesy for Client.
To examine your View and Intent, objectively as possible do a contemplative Inventory of 'worst case scenarios' that might lead to you, or by extension other people, to become: Aversive: Anger, hatred; Attached: Possessive, Addictive; Pride: Boastful, Arrogant; Envious: Jealousy, Vindictiveness; Covetous, Manipulative, Controlling. In every instance of identifying an Obstacle then identify and apply the Antidote, then continue to 'role play' and 'run the simulation’ until you can predict any likely scenario and in your Mind's Eye 'see through' and clearly resolve all Obstacles to a transparent view, then you are a 'Seer' and 'Sayer' able to understand and prophess the Karmic Linkage of the Past, Present, and Future of the Subject in question, and now you are like Vajrapani beholding all wisdom in Indra's Net and like Suja you “Cut the Head off of excuses and drink from your vital capacities” as an Oracle unobstructed by the Five Obstacles.
A Vamacharya Skilled Method practice of Self-Reflection in a contemplative meditation of a personal inventory of ethical transgressions of thought speech and behavior in the past present and predictable future, the Goal of the skillful Practitioner is eliminating The Five Obstacles to establish Objectivity which is a necessary prerequisite of Oracle prophesying. In Contemplative Meditation do a past present and predictive future Personal Inventory and with each memory or simulation of ethical transgression of thought speech or behavior repeatedly apply the applicable Antidote(s) of the 'Four Immesurables', and to inform your actions while examining personal transgressions during Personal Inventory utilize Suja as mastery of presence and sacrifice. The Antidote to the Five Obstacles is the Four Immesurables: Meta - Loving Kindness-benevolence, friendliness, amity, good will, active interest in others; Karuna- compassion, mercy, empathy, consideration; Mudita- joy, sympathetic joy, vicarious joy, spontaneous shared Joy; Upaka- Equanimity, equality, peace, a purifying mental state to counteract the Three Defilements of lust, aversion and ignorance. Utilize The 'Four Immesureables' and then 'Suja-ta' utilize the Chinnamunda Effect of mastery of presence and sacrifice to guide your Skillful Method of the Oracle of Vajrapani, which is a Tool for preparing and conditioning the Mind to have successful Oracle sessions with Clients.

Part Three - Third Exercise: Prophecy:
Beholding all wisdom in Indra's Net:
There are two types of dimensions to Indra’ s Net, which can be called Indra’s Net and Indra’s Web: Indra’s Net is the macro-view of the 10 compass directions including intermediate compass directions plus up and down, best conceived as the 6 physical directions North-South-East-West-Up-Down.
Indra’s Net is in the real-time of the Here-and-Now in this three dimensional gross form realm, and expands to three dimensions as a matrix enveloping the Cosmos within which are evenly spaced Jewel nodes that reflect and behold every other Jewel node and reflect and behold what every other Jewel node reflects and beholds. Dissolve your Identity to formless then manifest as Vajrapani inside a Jewel beholding all wisdom and karma in all of the Jewels; then with astral travel teleport to observe the current conditions circumstances and situation of the place and time and person and event in question- the Query of the Client. First determine if what you see is relevant or irrelevant to the Query of the Client, observe that which is relevant, observe if the effects of the Time-Place-Person-Event Query Field Function seems positive or negative or neutral. Observe if the Conditions-Situation-Circumstances of the Time-Place-Person-Event Field Function are: Important and Urgent, or, Important but not Urgent, or, Unimportant but Urgent or Unimportant and not Urgent; if you see only a side profile view then you only have part of the story, so with astral travel teleport yourself to the other sides of the query Field Function. Interpolate the past, compare with present, extrapolate the Future and predict the most likely scenario based on the Conditions-Situation-Circumstances unique and specific to the Time-Place-Person-Event Field Function to answer the Query of the Client.
Indra’s Web is Time-dependent wherein behind you is the past, in front is the future, on all sides are the prevailing conditions, a time-dependent View of a time-place-person-event unique Situation as it changes over time, and the Client’s intended Goal of their desired Eventuality is the Circumstances in the Here and Now. Observe the current conditions, circumstances and situation of the place and time and person and event in question- the Query of the Client. First determine if what you see is relevant or irrelevant to the Query of the Client, observe that which is relevant, observe if the effects of the Time-Place-Person-Event Query Field Function seems positive or negative or neutral. Observe if the Conditions-Situation-Circumstances of the Time-Place-Person-Event Field Function are: Important and Urgent, or, Important but not Urgent, or, Unimportant but Urgent or Unimportant and not Urgent; if you see only a side profile view then you only have part of the story, so with time travel teleport yourself to the Field Function in question, observe, analyse, and reason to Interpolate the Past, compare the Past with the Present then extrapolate the Future and predict the most likely scenario based on the Conditions-Situation-Circumstances unique and specific to the Time-Place-Person-Event Field Function to answer the Query of the Client.

Posted on June 28, 2016 #1 AuthorIt is so awe-inspiring to read about Lama Michel Rinpoche, how he “found” his way back to his practise. Drubchok Gyalwa Sandrup must have had deep devotion and strong samaya with his Guru, Panchen Zangpo Tashi that in his current incarnation as Lama Michel Rinpoche, he is able to reconnect with the current incarnation of his Guru, Lama Gangchen Rinpoche. Having been born in Brazil, Dharma must have been especially rare and yet it is his parents who invite Lama Gangchen Rinpoche and created this connection. How wondrous the way Buddhas work, manifesting something great out of what seemingly unlikely. May Lama Michel Rinpoche live long to bring the Dharma to parts of the world that needs him.

Posted on July 6, 2016 #2 AuthorIndeed the people in Brazil are blessed to have Lama Michel born there, and this is like a perfect example of Buddhas compassion and teachings going into the ten directions. May many be blessed by Lama Micel presence in Italy and Brazil

Posted on July 26, 2016 #3 AuthorCan’t help noticing that it was the parents of Lama Michel Rinpoche who brought Lama Gangchen to Brazil and their son. What a very direct way of introducing the young child to dharma and Guru.
Lama Michel Rinpoche is very lucky, or dare I say accumulated a lot merits from previous lives to be able to meet with the dharma at such a very early age and with the blessings of his parents in this life.
He is such an inspiration, speaking English, Italian and being able to learn the Buddhist teachings at Tashi Lhunpo Monastery under the abbot.
May Lama Michel Rinpoche have stable health and long life to spread the dharma in the ten directions.

Posted on August 2, 2017 #4 AuthorLama Michel is young, dynamic and charismatic demeanour has enabled people to connect with the Dharma more effectively. Many people believed his pure energy which is akin to the energy of Maitreya.He is very close and currently lives in Italy with the great master, H.E. Gangchen Rinpoche. This is very good and beneficial to him as can stay near to H.E. Gangchen Rinpoche which is good for his spiritual growth and ultimately bring benefits to all sentient beings.

Posted on September 10, 2017 #5 AuthorHalfway reading through this short namthar (bio) about Lama Michel, I realised the importance of strong aspirational prayers, on holding samaya and Guru devotion. What is the best way to offer body, speech and mind if it’s not through this? Looking at His year of birth really put me to shame as I am only a year younger than Him but still wandering in samsara while giving trouble to others.

Posted on January 17, 2019 #6 AuthorHola mi nombre es Julia y solo quería dar gracias a Michel Rinpoche , por existir. De casualidad estaba haciendo terapia psicológica y mi hermana que es médico, una compañera suya le dio para que yo lo escuchara una charla que distes en Málaga sobre la Felicidad. La cual me encantó y la escucho muchas veces , ella no sé si lo hará porque íbamos al mismo lugar pero con distintos terapeutas. Solo oír tu voz me relaja y me llena de plenitud de vida, lo cuál antes no quería vivir y ahora sí,gracias a ti. No sé si este mensaje te llegará pero tenía ganas de hacerlo y poder seguirte cada vez que venga a Málaga. Gracias mil gracias de corazón. Julia de Málaga.
