Noob

Post by Urgyen Dorje »

Urgyen Dorje here. This is my first refuge name from when I received my first vajrayana empowerment and the three sets of vows back in 1988. I have a strong connection to different Tibetan lineages, but consider myself a Drikungpa at this point. I'm fond of Longchenpa, Mipham, and Tsongkhapa.

I work in tech but I'm something of a Luddite. I'm a foodie and I like to hike and backpack. I'm also very fond of writing, in particular modern American poets like Gary Snyder and Phil Whalen. I'm fond of cold weather, rocks, and really hoppy beer. I live with my wife and occasional feline friends.
