Transforming the Heart: The Buddhist Way to Joy and Courage
with Jampa Tegchok, Rinpoche

Saturday May 10th from 7 P.M. 'til 9 P.M. and Sunday May 11 from 10 A.M. 'til Noon

Jampa Tegchok, Rinpoche Rinpoche returns this year to speak from his about transforming our hearts. This talk is a pratical and inspiring teaching for developing our ability to be happy and benefit others.

Geshe Jampa Tegchok became a monk at the age of eight. He studied all of the major Buddhist treatises at Sera-je Monastery in Tibet before fleeing his homeland in 1959. After staying in the refugee camp at Buxa, India, Geshe Tegchok went to Varanasi, where he obtained his Acharya degree and taught for seven years. He then began teaching in the West - three years in England and ten years at Nalanda Monastery in France. In 1993, His Holiness the Dalai Lama appointed him as abbot of Sera-je Monastic University in India. Retired from that position, he now teaches widely in the United States.

He is a simple and warm monk with a very great heart beloved by all who have had the opportunity to meet him and listen to his talks on Buddhism.
