Buddhism
Buddhist philosophy is about cultivating compassion, wisdom, kindness and genuine happiness. We offer courses, retreats, drop-ins and opportunities for group practice to fulfill the needs of both beginners and experienced practitioners.
We offer the introductory courses Introduction to Buddhist Meditation and Buddhism in a Nutshell, as well as the two-year study program Discovering Buddhism and Lamrim: the graduated path to enlightenment course.
We offer drop-ins which allow a more open format and flexibility. Come and meditate and interact with Venerable Michael, or join our group practices. We also offer a course and drop-ins in tantric visualization meditation. Last but not least, we organize weekend courses with visiting teachers who are registered FPMT teachers.
Our events are in line with Wisdom Culture that is infused with the wisdom and compassion of Lama Thubten Yeshe and Lama Zopa Rinpoche. The key points of the FPMT Wisdom Culture are:
- Openness and breadth in presenting the Dharma. Lama Yeshe’s teaching style was non-traditional, yet completely pure in source and content.
- Detail and depth of instruction. Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s teaching style emphasizes how to practice and making each moment deeply meaningful through bodhichitta and emptiness.
- The FPMT Wisdom Culture encourages realization of the lam-rim teachings in the heart, not just intellectual study.
- Constant practice of merit accumulation and purification. These practices are emphasized as essential to bringing temporal happiness and preparing the mind for realization.
- Reliance on tantra; encouraging students to have spiritual confidence.
- Respect and support for ordained Sangha. We consider ordained Sangha essential to the tradition.
- Cultivation of a close family feeling. FPMT is a worldwide family of practitioners, united by our culture, devotion to our teachers, and standard practice materials.
- Thinking big. We cultivate the wish to be of great benefit to countless beings, and then put that wish into practice!
- Big love. Cherishing others. Imparting a universal love for all beings.

This event is a hybrid event (you can take part via Zoom as well)
This evening Jan Willis will share her story and teachings of Lama Yeshe, This event is a hybrid event (you can take part via Zoom as well) This evening Jan Willis will share her story and teachings of Lama Yeshe, the founder of FPMT and beloved teacher of thousands of disciples around the world. Jan Willis is one of Lama Yeshe’s earliest Western disciples and sees him as one of her root spiritual mentors. She grew up in the Jim Crow South of 1950s and 1960s and took part in the Civil Rights movement. While traveling through Asia in the early 1970s, she met Lama Yeshe and discovered a path to healing the wounds of racism: “[Buddhism] has helped me in real ways to find what I was looking for as a young person in a world that was violent,” she explained. “It showed me how to locate deep wounds that racism caused in my early life … and having found them, how to heal them.” About Lama Yeshe: Lama Thubten Yeshe was born in Tibet in 1935. At the age of six, he entered the great Sera Monastic University, Lhasa, where he studied until 1959, when the Chinese invasion of Tibet forced him into exile in India. Lama Yeshe continued to study and meditate in India until 1967, when, with his chief disciple, Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche, he went to Nepal. Two years later he established Kopan Monastery, near Kathmandu, in order to teach Buddhism to Westerners. In 1974, the Lamas began making annual teaching tours to the West, and as a result of these travels a worldwide network of Buddhist teaching and meditation centers—the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT)—began to develop. In 1984, after an intense decade of imparting a wide variety of incredible teachings and establishing one FPMT activity after another, at the age of forty-nine, Lama Yeshe passed away. He was reborn as Ösel Hita Torres in Spain in 1985 and recognized as the incarnation of Lama Yeshe by His Holiness the Dalai Lama in 1986. Jan Willis, PhD, has had a distinguished career as a scholar and teacher of Buddhism spanning fifty years. She first met Tibetan Buddhists in India and Nepal at the age of nineteen and went on to earn degrees in Philosophy and Indic and Buddhist Studies from Cornell and Columbia Universities. She has taught at UC Santa Cruz, the University of Virginia and at Wesleyan University and now –in retirement–teaches part-time at Agnes Scott College in Decatur, GA. Jan’s areas of expertise are Tibetan Buddhism, Buddhist saints’ lives, Women and Buddhism, and Buddhism and Race and she has published works in all of these areas. Coming from Birmingham, AL. she marched there with Dr. King in 1963 and has begun leading workshops which explore Race and Racism through a Buddhist Lens. Her memoir ”Dreaming Me: Black, Baptist and Buddhist. An African American Woman´s Spiritual Journey” was published 2001. TIME Magazine named Professor Willis one of six “spiritual innovators for the new millennium.”(Dec 2000). READ MORE about Jan Willis: https://www.janwillis.org/awards/

Pris 50.00kr – 200.00kr Jan Willis has been marching with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. – whom she calls “that African-American bodhisattva of our time”, and opening to Buddhism as a way to heal the deep wounds of racism. To those who think activism is not necessarily a part of Buddhism she responds: “Activism goes all the way back to when the Buddha first stood up under that Bodhi tree”. Jan Willis Ph.D. is professor emerita of religion at Wesleyan University, where she taught courses in Buddhist religion and philosophy since 1977. She is one of the earliest American scholar-practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism, having studied Buddhism with Tibetan teachers for more than forty years, including as one of the first western students of Lama Thubten Yeshe. Jan Willis discovered dharma as a path to healing the trauma of racism growing up in the segregated south and has forged paths for the integration of Buddhism and social and political justice. She is the author of the memoir Dreaming Me: Black, Baptist, and Buddhist (2001) and scholarly and popular works on Buddhist meditation, hagiography, women, and Buddhism, and Buddhism and race. She has been on shortlists and profiled by Time, Ebony, and Newsweek. In the Fall of 2017, Jan Willis offered a three-week course at Maitripa College USA entitled “Making the Invisible, Visible: The Other Side of ‘Perfect’: A Multi-media and Interactive Exploration of Race and Racism in the US,” as well as a public talk. The intention of the course was, in the safety and sanctity of a Buddhist environment, to explore the deep and troubling issues of race and racism in our country and in our lives.

To get liberated from suffering samsara and achieve enlightenment, we need the realisation of emptiness to eliminate ignorance. Understanding ignorance and realising emptiness is not an easy task. Panchen Lama Losang Chokyi Gyaltsen discusses these two difficult points in a very clear, joyful and playful way in Wisdom Debating Ignorance. This text is highly recommended by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who stated on many occasions that he obtained a very clear understanding of emptiness after reading this text. Geshe Namdak has kindly agreed to explain this clear presentation of emptiness and the basis, path and result of Mahamudra according to the sutra system.
To attend this course, it is helpful to have a basic understanding of Buddhist philosophy.
A clear explanation of the philosophy of emptiness presented in a playful, story-telling-like commentary by one of the greatest masters in the history of the Tibetan tradition, Panchen Lama Chokyi Gyaltsen.
Our courses and classes on Buddhist philosophy and practice rely on a skilled teacher to bring them to life. We’re extremely fortunate to have a supremely qualified Resident Teacher to do just that. After completing his university studies in Hydrology, Geshe Namdak worked as an environmental researcher in the Netherlands. He began studying Buddhism at Maitreya Institute and was eventually ordained by His Holiness the Dalai Lama before completing the 20-year Geshe degree at Sera Jey monastic university in India, as well as the traditional one-year Vajrayana study program at Gyume Tantric College. Few people can combine this extensive Buddhist education with a rigorous scientific training. The result is Geshe Namdak’s unique teaching style, which is at once incisive, clear, warm and humorous.Biljetter

Being reborn in pure lands gives profound opportunities for one’s development on the Bodhisattvayana paths and once born there, enlightenment is guaranteed. Many Buddhist traditions explain practices to be reborn in these pure lands and state that Sukhavati, the pure land of Amitabha, is the most common and the easiest one to be reborn in. Great masters of the various traditions in Tibet also composed various prayers and commentaries on these practices. Geshe Namdak has kindly agreed to explain the ones composed by Lama Tsong Khapa and Panchen Lama Losang Chokyi Gyaltsen which he also translated on the advice of Lama Zopa Rinpoche.
This teaching is for all those who would like to understand the concept of the pure land according to the Mahayana Buddhist tradition. Attendees will benefit from having some background knowledge of Buddhism, and in particular Mahayana Buddhism.
A teaching on a fascinating aspect of the Mahayana tradition.
Our courses and classes on Buddhist philosophy and practice rely on a skilled teacher to bring them to life. We’re extremely fortunate to have a supremely qualified Resident Teacher to do just that. After completing his university studies in Hydrology, Geshe Namdak worked as an environmental researcher in the Netherlands.

After completing his university studies in Hydrology, Geshe Namdak worked as an environmental researcher in the Netherlands. He began studying Buddhism at Maitreya Institute and was eventually ordained by His Holiness the Dalai Lama before completing the 20-year Geshe degree at Sera Jey monastic university in India, as well as the traditional one-year Vajrayana study program at Gyume Tantric College. Few people can combine this extensive Buddhist education with a rigorous scientific training. The result is Geshe Namdak’s unique teaching style, which is at once incisive, clear, warm and humorous.Biljetter

To get liberated from suffering samsara and achieve enlightenment, we need the realisation of emptiness to eliminate ignorance. Understanding ignorance and realising emptiness is not an easy task. Panchen Lama Losang Chokyi Gyaltsen discusses these two difficult points in a very clear, joyful and playful way in Wisdom Debating Ignorance. This text is highly recommended by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, who stated on many occasions that he obtained a very clear understanding of emptiness after reading this text. Geshe Namdak has kindly agreed to explain this clear presentation of emptiness and the basis, path and result of Mahamudra according to the sutra system.
To attend this course, it is helpful to have a basic understanding of Buddhist philosophy.
