Lamas at NALA and Padkar Ling

The NALA and Padkar Ling centers operate under the spiritual guidance of H.H. 17th Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje and Maniwa Sherab Gyaltsen Rinpoche. These prominent Buddhist teachers not only show us direction through their lives but constantly remind us of the invaluable value of our shared visions and goals. Together with other lamas and personalities who regularly impart teachings at our centers, they bring the clarity and wisdom of Eastern teachings to the Western world.

The NALA and Padkar Ling centers are also in regular contact with other prominent Buddhist teachers and a number of Buddhist monks and nuns.
