SAKYA TSARPA NALANDRA
Happy 90th Birthday His Holiness. May you live as long as samsara remains. May you bless our mind stream.
Welcome to the Nalandra Buddhist Institute, a vibrant community dedicated to exploring and embodying the Buddha's wisdom. We offer a holistic path to cultivate both wisdom and compassion.
At Nalandra, you'll discover the Buddha's boundless knowledge, with a special focus on kindness and compassion. Deepen your understanding of Dharma through engaged listening, thoughtful pondering, and dedicated meditation. We provide ample opportunities to cultivate your practice with guided sessions, solitary retreats, and blessings.
Throughout the year, we host special events like World Animal Day, enlightening talks, Buddhist holy day celebrations, and pilgrimages. We're committed to promoting vegetarianism and respecting all walks of life, religions, and lineages.
Our extensive offerings include hundreds of hours of guided meditations and teachings from His Eminence the 6th Zimo'g, covering both Sutra and Tantra. Classes run during Victorian school terms, with events often held during long weekends or term breaks. Our dress code of black, burgundy, and a rosary beautifully symbolizes the profound interconnectedness of samsara, nirvana, and meditation—or the three vital bodies.
His Holiness the 43rd Sakya Trizin is expecting to touch his holy feet down on our soil in early 2026. Nalandra is excited to receive some Dakini cycle empowerments during his visit. Details to be advised.
