Treasure Revealer

Sera Khandro

1892-1940

Sera Khandro Kunzang Dekyong Wangmo was one of the most remarkable female treasure revealers of twentieth-century Tibet. Born in Lhasa, she resisted an arranged marriage and, following profound visionary experiences, fled to Golok to pursue a life of Dharma. Enduring extreme hardship, social opposition, and periods of illness, she nevertheless became renowned for her devotion, eloquence, and spiritual attainment. As both a consort and an independent treasure revealer, she transmitted and uncovered major treasure cycles, including teachings connected to Dudjom Lingpa and Drime Özer, as well as her own visionary revelations. Her life and writings offer a rare and powerful account of female religious agency within the Nyingma tradition. She spent her later years teaching and travelling across eastern Tibet, gathering a wide circle of disciples, and is remembered as a central figure in the modern Tibetan treasure tradition.
