Lama Tsering Ngodup

(a Tibetan Buddhist Teacher) is authorized to teach by

HH ShaMar Rinpoche. HH ShaMar Rinpoche is one of the lineage holders of the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism, the 14th incarnation of the Shamarpa (Red Hat Lama of Tibet) and a highly accomplished meditation master.

Lama Tsering has devoted over 20 years to sharing the spiritual teachings of Tibetan Buddhism in the West. He has traveled across the world, as a translator and interpreter for highly accomplished Tibetan Lamas and Masters from all four schools of Tibetan Buddhism: Nyingma, Gelukpa, Sakya and Kagyu.

In this process, he has received many teaching and transmissions in both Sutra and Tantra (Vajrayana). Through this experience, he has acquired knowledge and insight which HH ShaMar Rinpoche has recognized and asked him to share through teaching.

Monica Veneziano

has been studying Buddhism since 1970.

She has been presenting art history slide presentations on Buddhism since 1989. She began studying with a Theravadan Monk from

Sri Lanka and received teachings from Dr. Huston Smith in the

historical/mythical development of Buddhism while a student at Syracuse University. Later she studied Vipassana with Daeje Napier

for 8 years. And today she honors the teachers who have made

an impact on her life: Ani Tenzin Palmo, Lama Surya Das, Joseph Goldstein, Jack Kornfield, Robert Thurman, Tulku Thondup and Mark Epstein.

Her love of the Dharma and Eastern studies is contagious.
