Throughout the Center's years of existence, it was with a compassion heart that Ven.

Lama Choyeng who himself have undergone 3 times of three-years-three-months retreat is considered as one of the rare accomplished Lama and Guru of our time.

the first Tibetan Buddhist Vajrayana Center was build in 2001at 540 Mag. J. Abad Santos St. Bacood Sta. Mesa, Manila, Philippine. Although the Center's has indigent financial resources, yet Lama Choyeng was able to make it as authentic as the resources could meet. The Center was inaugurated on November 24, 2001, Ven. Nedo Kuchung Rinpoche, Ven. Lama Choyeng Dondrup and Mr. Benjamin Chua, the president of Federation of Filipino Chinese Chamber of Commerce, officiating the ribbon cutting on it's opening date. In that occasion, many Hinayana, Mahayana and other Vajrayana center's monks and nuns came to rejoice on its offering Puja.
Ven. Lama Choyeng, who's devoted attendant and student of the previous Nedo Kuchung Rinpoche, had lead all his disciples in offerings this Center, now can be consider as a small monastery to the present Nedo Kuchung Rinpoche, hence seed of Ven. Nedo Kuchung Rinpcohe Moanstery has now sprout in foreign land, with Philippine as its pioneer and pivot point.
