About Lama Christopher Wilkinson
Christopher Wilkinson started his career in the Dharma at the age of 15, taking refuge vows from his root teacher Dezhung Rinpoche. In the years that followed Dezhung Rinpoche introduced him to Geshe Ngawang Nornang, Lama Kalu Rinpoche, Dilgo Kyentse Rinpoche, Nyoshul Khen Rinpoche, and many others. Chris identified with the Rime Non-Sectarian movement from the start. Pursuing a formal education in Tibetan and Sanskrit Languages, he graduated in 1980 with a BA in Asian Languages and Literature and another BA in Comparative Religion from the University of Washington. After two years of travel around the holy places of Asia, including time in India and Nepal, he worked for five years in refugee resettlement in Seattle, Washington. Wishing to get back into Buddhist Studies, he went to the University of Calgary, where he completed his MA in 1988. In 1990 Chris went to Sulawesi Indonesia, where he served as a professor of English language for three years, exploring the ancient Sri Vijaya empire. Back in America, he worked as a Research Associate for the Shelly and Donald Rubin Foundation, playing a small part in the early development of the Rubin Museum. He then taught as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Calgary for five years. He also became a Research Fellow with the Centre de Recherches sur les Civilisations de l'Asie Orientale, Collège de France for twelve years. Beginning in 2012 he began to release translations of Tibetan Literature, beginning with the seven volumes of the Sakya Kongma Series and presently including 30 volumes of Great Perfection Tantras, and he continues in this effort even now.
