	~~The monastery of Benchen Phuntsok Dargyeling (ban chen dgon phun tshogs dar rgyas gling) was established by the~~ [[4th Sangye Nyenpa Rinpoche]] and was recently restored by the [[10th Sangye Nyenpa Rinpoche]] and the 3rd [[Tenga Rinpoche]] of Benchen. It is situated in Nangchen, Eastern Tibet, not far from the town of Jekundo and close to [[Thrangu Rinpoche]]'s and [[Traleg Rinpoche]]'s Thrangu monastery. The monastery follows the [[Karma Kagyu]] tradition, but also has retreat facilities for the teachings and practices of the [[Shangpa Kagyu]] tradition. All in all there are four retreat centres situated around the monastery. They focus upon the practices of the [[Six Doctrines of Naropa]], the [[The Five Golden Dharmas of the Shangpa]], which includes the [[Six Doctrines of Niguma]], the practice of Jinasagara and the practice of Sarvavid Vairocana. These are of course just the main practices followed in these four retreat centres. They are supplemented by a variety of other practices as well.
