THE CENTRE FOR COMPASSION AND WISDOM IS pleased to host Geshe Sherab from the celebrated Kopan Monastery in Nepal. Geshe Sherab will be teaching in Burlington for 10 days in February as part of his North American Tour. On his first weekend at the centre, he will give three free public talks in Toronto, Kitchener/Waterloo and Burlington. All are most welcome. No advance registration is required for talks.

Geshe Sherab is young, articulate, fluent in English and an inspiring speaker. Geshe-la is also the headmaster of Kopan Monastery, Nepal, the spiritual centre of the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT). He has lived for several years in the U.S. also, so is familiar with North American culture, and knows how to relate the Dharma to the western mind.

Born in Nepal of Tibetan parents, Geshe Sherab received his education at Kopan Monastery as a boy, and completed his studies at Sera Je Monastic University and at Gyume Tantric College in India. He has lived in the U.S. working at the FPMT Central office and several nearby Dharma Centres in New Mexico. He returned to Nepal after several years in the U.S. to become Headmaster of Kopan Monastery. Geshe-la has just retired from his role as headmaster in order to have more time to devote to meditation and teaching internationally.
