Thriving Together Through Your Generosity

Thanks to your support, our community continues to grow, offering the profound Longchen Nyingthig teachings from Khandro-La, Bhutan Pilgrimage, The Six Yogas Online and so much more. We’ve expanded our reach with online programs across time zones, enhanced accessibility through recordings, and nurtured a loving sangha united by integrity and deep practice.


This year, we served 100+ members, offering 131 programs, retreats, and trainings. Looking ahead, we’re launching a Chaplaincy Program, Advanced Meditation Instructor Training, and hosting esteemed teachers for shedra-level teachings, retreats, and empowerments.

Help Us Meet the Challenge
Your contributions ensure stability and support for our growing programs. Together, we cultivate resilience and compassion on the path of the Awakened Mind.

Thank you for your generosity, vision, and love. Let’s rise to meet this moment with strength and heart.
