Lama Tashi Lhamo, The Círculo Niguma Association

Spain

Lama Tashi Lhamo has studied with Khenpo Tsültrim Gyamtso Rinpoche since 1983, and  completed the traditional three-year retreat in 1987 at Kagyu Ling monastery in France under the guidance of Kyabje Kalu Rinpoche. She was given the title lama by Bokar Tulku Rinpoche and Khenpo Rinpoche. For many years she has centered her work on two areas: teaching and translation.

Following the guidelines of her teacher Khenpo Tsültrim Gyamtso Rinpoche and in connection with Marpa Foundation, Lama Tashi Lhamo translates Tibetan Buddhist texts into Spanish.

Teaching Activity

Lama Tashi Lhamo gives meditation courses and instruction, both privately and publicly, throughout Spain. She presents a graduated path of study and practice that is imbued with the views of Mahamudra and Dzogchen right from the beginning with shamatha meditation. Following the teaching style of Khenpo Rinpoche, she incorporates Dohas and Vajra dance into her teachings as a means to deeper understanding and experience. Lama Tashi Lhamo’s organic and graduated teaching method enables students to experience their minds’ natural openness, clarity, and non-obstructiveness throughout their path, in formal meditation and everyday life.
