The Buddhist Studies Summer Program is an academically accredited residential study and practice program that combines traditional and academic approaches to Buddhist Studies. Students in the program live at our remote Northern California center and participate in daily sessions of teaching and meditation led by our Lamas, teachers, and translators.

Students in the program may choose to receive internationally recognized academic credit through Kathmandu University’s Centre for Buddhist Studies at Rangjung Yeshe Institute.
