Finally, he attained the Buddhist highest degree of Geshi Lharampa (Doctorate degree in philosophy) in 2005 and he was educated on Tantric philosophy in upper tantric college (Gyuto) for a few years. Likewise, he was also educated in western philosophy, English, Hindi and modern science for many years by different teachers.
