Biography of Yogi Wangpo Kalsang
Yogi Wangpo Kalsang was born to a family of Mo Masters and yogis. This illustrious lineage is presently headed by Yogi Kalsang Rinpoche, who is Yogi Wangpo Kalsang's father. Yogi Kalsang Rinpoche attained his insight and wisdom as a recognized Tibetan Healer through devotion to the meditation practices of the Karma Kagyu tradition, as well as his personal family's history and experience with their unique approach to the Mo and healings.
Yogi Wangpo Kalsang's grandfather, Chadral Pama Gyurme was also a highly accomplished yogi, Vajrayana Chod and Divination master. The term "Chadral" is a title of respect given to a person who lives a meditative life of renunciation high in the holy mountains of Tibet. Thus, Yogi Wangpo Kalsang's inheritance includes an historic and proven method of both formal meditation practices and Mo for Divination and Healing.
Because of his illustrious family, Yogi Wangpo Kalsang's earliest memories include the activity of Mo Divination. In addition to this immersion in the technique and method of Mo Divination, Yogi Wangpo Kalsang was ordained as a Monk in the Drikung Kargyu monastic lineage at the age of six. He received all the main and important Drikung Kargyu lineage teachings during his many years at the monastery.
