Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche Teaching at Jewel Heart New York

Make Every Day Meaningful

Saturday, March 10, 1:00 to 4:00 PM

Jewel Heart New York

We are please to announce that our beloved teacher, Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche, will be in New York and teaching at the Jewel Heart New York Dharma Center. The teaching will be on Saturday, March 10 from 1:00 to 4:00 PM. This is an increasingly rare opportunity to take teachings directly from this great master here in our own community.

Rimpoche’s teaching, “Make Every Day Meaningful”, will be based upon The Foundation of All Perfections, a concise poetic rendering of the complete path to enlightenment by the 14th/15th Century Tibetan master Tsongkhapa. All are welcome. The talk will be tailored to everyone from a first time attendee to a Tibetan Buddhist teaching up through experienced practitioners.

Born in Lhasa, Tibet, in 1939, Kyabje Gelek Rimpoche was recognized as an incarnate lama at the age of four. Carefully tutored from an early age by some of Tibet’s greatest living masters, Rimpoche gained renown for his powers of memory, intellectual judgment and penetrating insight. Now Rimpoche brings his life experience and wisdom to both the east and the west.
