Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, founder and spiritual director of Ligmincha International, is planning to take a yearlong sabbatical beginning on January 3, 2021.

A new six-week self-guided online course with 3 Doors senior teacher Gabriel Rocco will be offered December 6, 2019–Jan 17, 2020 (with a break on December 27). This course will support participants in recognizing patterns of inner and outer speech and how to use precision of attention to rest in powerful, transformative inner silence.

One of the greatest strengths of Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche’s ongoing program of free Internet teachings is the community of individuals around the world who regularly follow Rinpoche’s teachings and guided meditations and share mutual support. As a resource for this lively and growing community, with the help of volunteers Rinpoche has now launched a new website, CyberSangha.net.
