This website was launched in the blessing of the fullmoon day 9th of July 2017 (Tibetan calender: 15th day, 5th month) by the wish of His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Thinle Lhundup – also known as Drikung Chetsang Rinpoche.

The vision of His Holiness Drikung Kyabgon Thinle Lhundup is:

1) Establishing Marpa in his proper place within the Kagyu Lineage, by using the force of history.

2) As well as revitalizing the transmissions passed from Marpa to his pupil Ngok Chöku Dorje. With especially focus on two of the Ngok mandalas: the Hevajra (9 deity) and Nairatmya (15 deity).

This website contains precious information about the Mar-Ngok Hevajra and Nairatmya transmission. You can find historical information, academic articles, practice resources etc. Please browse the menu to dive into this treasure of information.

In addition to Mar-Ngok.org:

There are two good monthly days and two annual days were one can tune in to the blessing of the Marpa Ngok Hevajra Nairatmya transmission: “The Blessing enables the offsprings to follow in the footsteps of the father!”

The two monthly days has focus on the practise.

The two annual days has focus on the lineage.

Monthly days for the Hevajra and Nairatmya practises:
  • To celebrate Nairatmya, you can use the 8th lunarday after the fullmoon, which is the 23rd lunarday of every month.
  • To celebrate Hevajra, you can use the 14th lunarday after the fullmoon, which is the same as protector-day, i.e. the 29th lunarday.
    This has been stated in the Hevajra “two part” Tantra (Part 1, chapter vii, vers 19-20)
