Dear friends from India & around the world!
The Tibetan Buddhist festival day of Chökhor Düchen marks the anniversary of Shakyamuni Buddha’s First Teaching of the Four Noble Truths in Sarnath, near Varanasi. To celebrate this meritorious occasion, we are offering two special online courses to which everyone is warmly invited.
Tushita has now entered into the 4th month of strict lockdown! In order to continue our heart purpose of offering the dharma, we have launched many free online programs over the previous months. Their ongoing popularity has been taking us repeatedly by surprise.
Many heartfelt thanks to everyone for all your love, support and especially your great enthusiasm and dedication towards the dharma!
To enable us to survive these challenging times and to continue benefiting keen learners from India and around the world, we would be deeply grateful for your participation in our upcoming special fundraiser courses.
Hearing your many requests, our cherished resident teacher Venerable Drolma will guide us in cultivating “Focus and Calm: A Peaceful Mind Through Meditation”.
We also thank our dear Tushita friend Venerable Amy Miller for happily agreeing to lead us on “The Path Of Joy” from her home in Philadelphia, concluding on the auspicious day of Chökhor Düchen.

About Tushita
Tushita is a centre for the study and practice of Buddhism from the Tibetan Mahayana tradition. We're located in Northern India, in the forested hills above the town of McLeod Ganj, Dharamsala - the seat in exile of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.
Tushita aims to provide a friendly and conducive environment for people of all nationalities and backgrounds to learn about and put into practice the teachings of the Buddha. With this in mind we offer regular drop-in events and courses on introductory Buddhist philosophy and meditation, as well as intermediate level courses and group retreats for more experienced students.
