'The Tsogley Rinpoche Trengwa or simply Rinchen Trengwa is the
main long Chöd ritual practiced by Kagyu and Nyingma lamas and
yogis. Those practicing either the Machik or Nyingtik Chö, Drikung
Chöd, or any of dozens of other terma traditions Including the
Dudjom Tersar rely on the Precious Rosary as an extensive Tsok
ritual. Others take it as their main practice, doing the full
practice daily or focusing on different sections each day. Two such
monasteries, strictly devoted to the Rinchen Trengwa, currently
exist in Bhutan. The Precious Rosary is also ideal for group or
solo retreats of 7, 14 or 30 days or longer. For all however, it is
a comprehensive path, containing all the elements of both Chöd and
Vajrayana.
There are four different melodic traditions and variations; That
practiced by Tsewong Sitar Rinpoche contains over 40 melodies, each
one seemingly more haunting and powerful than the next.
Fortunately, through his father, he has been able to provide the
traditional name of each of the melodies, which have now been
recorded singly for study and preservation. '
