My name is Thubten Chodron. I am from Ozer, Darlag County, Golok. When I was young, my kind mother passed away. Then my father cared for me for five years. Then due to the power of karma my father became ill and passed away too, and I became an orphan. Then my brother and sister cared for me until I was eight years old. Because of the compassion of Khentrul Kunzang Gyaltsen, I was able to come to Sengdruk Taktse School.
