The S.K.I.N. team is composed of a team of Sowa Rigpa doctors and supporters, representing diverse ethnic backgrounds from the cultural mosaic that is Nepal. It is also the Nepali branch of the larger network of Sorig Khang organizations, established under the guidance of Dr. Nida Chenagtsang, one of the most active contemporary educators and practitioners of Sowa Rigpa in the world today.

Our Projects

Sowa Rigpa International College

Establishing the Sowa Rigpa International College has been the primary focus of S.K.I.N’s activities, the fruition of years of efforts to create a Sowa Rigpa degree program in Nepal. As the parent organization behind the college, the S.K.I.N. team created the groundwork for the College’s inception, and oversees its management and operations.

Medical Aid Camps

As an organization, S.K.I.N. works in many ways to improve the health and vitality of Nepal. After the 2015 earthquake, the Sorig First Aid project was initiated with the support of international groups coordinated by ATTM Singapore, providing free Sowa Rigpa medical care to thousands of patients in various regions of Nepal. These public healthcare camps continue regularly, administered by doctors from the S.K.I.N. team.

International Congress on Sowa Rigpa

In conjunction with Sorig Khang International partners, S.K.I.N. hosted International Congresses on Sowa Rigpa in Kathmandu in 2014 and 2017, which brought together hundreds of doctors, scholars, and students of Sowa Rigpa from around the world.
