International Buddhist Center for Meditation and Studies
In the natural and scenic setting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, Gomde offers the perfect environment to learn and practice authentic Tibetan Buddhism and meditation. Our program offers many possibilities for both experienced, practicing Buddhists, as well as beginners and interested people.
In the daily meditation sessions, seminars and in everyday life we try to develop and fully embody unbiased loving-kindness, compassion and wisdom through training of our own minds. This is based on the insight that the primordial awareness (rangjung yeshe), which possesses these very qualities, is inherent in every living being.
The center has been acquired, inspired and guided by the loving vision of our abbot Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche
