Bruce Newman

I've spent most my adult life studying and practicing the Dharma under the compassionate guidance of Ven Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche and Ven Gyatrul Rinpoche. I've been teaching more than twenty years and in my teaching I strive to communicate Tibetan Buddhism to modern westerners in a way that is meaningful and applicable to them without in any way altering or corrupting the purity of the tradition. I am married and live in southern Oregon in the US. More about what I do can be found at www.tashicholing.org.

INTRODUCTION TO GROUP STUDY OF SACRED BOOKS

Reading sections out loud invites us to delve deeper into the material. It is too easy to just skim over difficult material while reading by yourself but what you found difficult someone else probably did too. I’m always amazed in a class to learn what I read but didn’t really understand when someone inquires about it!
