October Schedule

In-person events continue to be avaliable at Gyuto. Geshe Lodun Nima is teaching for Western students on Saturday evenings at 7:00 pm. On request he is teaching and providing commentary on The Siksa Samuccaya, Shantiedva’s training anthology.

Prayers on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 pm and twice-monthly recitation of the Lama Chopa, guru devotion sadana can be attended in person as well. Sharing these practices is a tradition that’s been observed at Gyuto for over 20 years. Please join us for these rewarding ceremonies.
