| Description: | The Tenzin Gyatso Institute, named after His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama, has been founded in homage to his vision and achievements. Its aim is to advance, explore, and put into action the values and principles that the Dalai Lama holds closest to his heart.
The founder of the Tenzin Gyatso Institute is Tibetan Buddhist teacher Sogyal Rinpoche, author of the ground-breaking The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying and founder of Rigpa. The Tenzin Gyatso Institute is the realization of Sogyal Rinpoche's lifelong wish to make a lasting contribution to His Holiness's work and to help safeguard it over the years to come, by promoting education, preservation of an endangered culture, and human values. The Dalai Lama and Sogyal Rinpoche have shown that these values are not simply a religious matter but they are of universal and vital concern to the survival of humanity as a whole. |
