All with a genuine interest in Buddhism are welcome to come and enjoy the privilege of receiving teaching from an authentic Master. As a result, you will find true transformation through the Dharma.
Our Teacher Venerable Geshe Phelgye
Teachings are presided by the most authentic mentor Venerable Professor Geshe-la Phelgye, a Tibetan Buddhist monk since 1973. Firstly, he earned his Geshe degree in addition to founding UCF. After that Geshe-la took a solitary retreat to practice what he learned while living in a cave nestled in the Himalayas. Moreover, he then served on the Tibetan Parliament in Exile with H.H. the 14th Dalai Lama.
Temple Events
We’re always hosting various Buddhist Holiday events as well as weekend retreats at the Buddhist Institute.
Please stay tuned to our calendar so you don’t miss out on these incredible opportunities.
