https://linktr.ee/nyingmainstitute With an emphasis on joyful engagement in life, the Nyingma Institute in Berkeley, California has been bringing the riches of the Tibetan tradition to the Western world since 1972. We offer training in meditation, Buddhist studies, and Tibetan language in ways that blend cognitive and experiential learning. Tibetan Yoga, Nyingma Psychology, and the Time, Space, and Knowledge vision were all developed here by our founder Tarthang Tulku. These unique fields of study provide effective ways to counteract tension, clear the mind, and open body and mind to new dimensions of feeling. Instruction is offered in three formats: weekly 90-minute classes, weekend workshops, and longer retreats. In addition to scheduled programs, private retreats are offered year-round, allowing you to go on retreat on your own schedule. In the Bay Area for over forty years, the Nyingma Institute offers a gentle path of self-knowledge and altruistic service based upon the Buddhaâs teachings. We continue to deepen this tradition by offering events for a range of interests an ages. Our meditation garden is open 9 AM to 6 PM daily.
