Our Centre
The centre offers teachings in the Gelugpa Tibetan Buddhism tradition with the blessings of His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
The centre was founded by the Venerable Khensur Rinpoche Lobsang Jamyang, ex-Abbott of the Sera Mey Monastic University in India. Teachings on Buddhist philosophy (Sutra and Tantra) as well as tantric practices and initiations are regularly offered at the centre. The teachings are normally given in Tibetan, then translated in English, French as well as Vietnamese if required.
Parking is available on site and there is a bus stop directly in front of the centre. Please make sure to check our schedule before coming to visit the centre.
