The
Vikramasila Foundation is a non-profit organization for
religious, educational, and cultural purposes. Under the
guidance of His Holiness the Sakya Trizin, the head of
the Sakya order of Tibetan Buddhism, and with the blessings
of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the foundation was established
in 1989 in New York City and Fairlawn, New Jersey, by
the Venerable Lama Pema Wangdak. Based on the teachings
of the Sakya school, the foundation seeks to provide the
wisdom of the East, here in the West, through Tibetan
Buddhist studies and meditative practices, education centers,
meetings and conventions, special religious and social
services, and publications. |
