In the later part of his life, Khamtrul Rinpoche was based in Dharamsala, India, where he served as the General Secretary of the Council for Cultural and Religious Affairs, before he retired in 1986. After that, Rinpoche travelled extensively around the world, promoting the interests of the Tibetan people and giving teachings in Asia, Europe and North America. In 1991, Rinpoche established Lhundrup Chime Gatsal Ling Nyinmapa Monastery in Dharamsala, under the guidance of His Holiness the Fourteenth Dalai Lama, to provide a place for students of all backgrounds to pursue their study and practice of Buddhism. In 2004, Rinpoche began work on a new monastery for his growing community of monks.
