Hundreds of Buddhists from different parts of the country assembled to take the blessings and teachings from the priest.
Devotees described the experience as a proud moment for Buddhists.
"He (Yulgula Rinpoche) performs this ceremony once in his life wearing the rare ornamental dress. This is for the last time that he is performing this ceremony. This is a proud moment for all the Buddhists in the world," said Gyalu Lama, a Buddhist monk.
Some foreign tourists also visited the monastery during the ceremony.
Edward Jones, a tourist from Germany who has been to different parts of India considered himself lucky to be the part of the ceremony.
