Tibetan Buddhist master Gelek Rimpoche uniquely shares his deep understanding of Tibetan Buddhism to spiritual seekers of all traditions world-wide. Gelek Rimpoche has dedicated his life to making Buddha’s ancient methods for peace, compassion and wisdom accessible to anyone interested in making a positive change to their lives.

Rimpoche is particularly distinguished for his thorough familiarity with modern culture, and special effectiveness as a teacher of Western practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism.

This weekend is open to all, with no previous background necessary; those who are new are especially welcome. Due to the kindness of sponsorship, the program fee has been waived for the first 100 people to register.
