Many of you know Lama Tsering from her previous visits to Ireland and from the Bodhicharya Summer Camp in Portugal, which she has run for the past fourteen years.  She was born in Lisbon and completed a traditional Tibetan Buddhist three year retreat at the Centre d’Etudes at Chanteloube under the guidance of Dudjom Rinpoche and Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche. She continues to receive teachings from many great Masters and is a student of Ringu Tulku Rinpoche.  A popular and experienced teacher, Tsering has traveled around the world for the past twenty five years giving talks and regular courses. 


This weekend is open to everyone, whether you are an experienced practitioner or are new to Buddhism. Drawing on ancient wisdom teachings and contemporary practices, Lama Tsering will show us how to approach the overwhelming distractions and suffering of modern life with a peaceful and a joyful mind.
