China's highest Tibetan Buddhism academy enrolls students from Tibet
Tupden Gongjue is taking a written exam.
Tupden Gongjue, a monk of Gelug sect from Chonggyai Monastery in Sog County, Nagchu City, is one of the candidates for this year's examination. He became a monk in 2001, and his main duties at the monastery include teaching Tibetan grammar and editing books and images.
In 2016, he obtained the Larampa Geshe title of Gelug sect.
"I feel that I have very little knowledge, so I'm going to take the exam for the Thorampa title this time. I hope I can pass the exam, and I'd like to go to the High-level Tibetan Buddhism College of China to study and learn Chinese well," Tupden Gongjue said.
For those who pass the exams and are accepted to the High-level Tibetan Buddhism College of China, they will be required to study not only specialized courses of Tibetan Buddhism, but also systematic courses in Chinese language, computers, essay writing, and Tibetan grammar.
