I have studied with Tenzin Wangyal since 1991 when I first met him at a retreat in Aspen, Colorado on Wisdom Loving Mother (or in Tibetan Sherab Chamma). Since then I have attended several retreats per year with him as often as I can. I highly recommend him as a teacher of meditation. He speaks very good English so is accessible to all. He does not use a translator. In his 20 years of living and teaching in the West, Tenzin Rinpoche has become renowned for his ability to convey the ancient wisdom of Bon Buddhism in a way that is immediately relevant, inspiring, and applicable to the needs of modern Western students.
Tenzin is a Geshe (like a PhD) in Bon Buddhism. He has a center called Serentiy Ridge in Charlottesville, VA as well as a retreat center in Crestone, CO. His teachings are geared toward the ability to apply Buddhist teachings and meditations in your everyday life. People of any and all traditions can benefit from receiving his teachings which are universal. He is becoming a famous Buddhist leader.

More Background on Tenzin Wangyal
During the 91-92 academic year Tenzin was selected as a Rockefeller Fellow at Rice University in Houston, Texas. Here he continued his research on early Bon Tantric dieties and their relationship with Buddhist traditions in the early period of Buddhism in Tibet. Rice invited Pinpoche back to teach for the spring semester of 1993 and he was awarded a second Rockefeller Fellowship. He was awarded a National Endowment for the Humanities grant for 1994-95 to conduct academic research on the logical and philosophical aspects of the Bon tradition.

HEALING THROUGH LOVE AND WISDOM
With Geshe Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
Please join us from your computer as Rinpoche guides the Sherap Chamma practice, a meditation that permits a deep, transformative connection with the qualities of love and wisdom. This guided practice will take place during a break in the annual fall retreat at Serenity Ridge, and is open only to our Internet audience.
The teachings of Sherap Chamma (`Wisdom Loving Mother') comprise one of the most important tantric cycles of the Bon Buddhist tradition of Tibet. In many cultures the primordial female energy is seen as the origin of existence and the source of wisdom, love and compassion. The ancient Bon Buddhist tradition offers a method for retrieving and deeply connecting with this divine feminine energy, bringing the potential for profound healing at all levels of experience-physical, energetic, psychological and spiritual.
As always, Tenzin Rinpoche presents the ancient Bon teachings in a way that is fresh and relevant to modern daily life.

I highly recommend going to this destination rather than to Tibet. Why? Because going to Tibet supports the Chinese who are the enemy of Tibetan people and of Tibetan Buddhism. So please DO NOT support the Chinese, instead go to India and support our allies.
