Wen is away during the month of July 09
Join in the Meditation ChallengeDuring the month of July, Wen will be at the White Tower Temple for re-certification and possibly additional training with Master Haikong. We will not be holding any beginner classes during this month.

We are extremely grateful for a group of dedicated volunteers both at the White Tower Temple and here within the North American Fulong Dharma Centre who have been tirelessly helping to translate two brand new books from Master Haikong, a biography and his teachings into English. We look forward to reading and sharing this information with practitioners here in North America. Many thanks!

Shared Dharma Teaching - From Sogyal Rinpoche - Video: What meditation really is Click to open video
Sogyal Rinpoche explains that there is much more to meditation than saying mantras and burning incense...

A world-renowned Buddhist teacher from Tibet, Sogyal Rinpoche is also the author of the highly acclaimed The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. Born in Kham in Eastern Tibet, Sogyal Rinpoche was recognized as the incarnation of Lerab Lingpa Tertön Sogyal, a teacher to the thirteenth Dalai Lama, by Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö, one of the most outstanding spiritual masters of the twentieth century.
