The monastery's organization is well organized into two separate streams, one involved in Spiritual / Educational Administration and the other in General / Financial Administration.

The Spiritual Administration is associated on all spiritual affairs, prayer / puja curriculum and academic course / examination

The monastery's abbot (Khenpo) is the spiritual head monk of the monastery and also the chairman of the institute as a whole.

General Administration

The General administration manages the general and financial affairs of the monastery.

An Administration Committee, referred as chanzo-khang in Tibetan, comprising of 5 members appointed by the governing body for a term of three years, manages the entire General Administration work. The Committee will be led by one of the five appointed members as the Chief Administrator / Secretary.

A team of appointed staffs assists in the general administration work.
