An exciting 2 week program with highly regarded international teacher.
Thubten Gyatso is well known, having over 35 years experience as a Buddhist teacher, in which time he has written two books, and built monasteries and completed a 3 year solitary retreat on Kangaroo Island. Being an Australian himself, he is easy to relate to and understands the way we think, which is reflected in his style of teaching which is often very amusing.
His program includes public talks and a weekend workshop.
