About Meet Our Venerable Teachers
Our teachings are led by a rotating group of dedicated monks and senior practitioners, many associated with Sera Jey Monastic University. These teachers are not just scholars; they are experienced guides who translate complex philosophical concepts—like the Lamrim stages of the path or the Four Foundations of Mindfulness—into practical tools you can use in your daily life. Whether you are attending a session on Guru Devotion or a simple guided meditation, you are receiving instruction from practitioners who have spent years studying and internalizing these traditions.
Authentic Guidance for Your Path
At CKSL, we believe the quality of guidance is central to the meditation experience. Our faculty includes teachers like Venerable Tenzin Namjong, a Princeton philosophy graduate, and other senior monks who blend deep scholarship with a relatable, compassionate teaching style.
How We Learn
We structure our teachings to be accessible regardless of your experience level. You can engage with our faculty through a variety of formats:
- In-Person Teachings: Join us at our Domlur centre to participate in prayers, pujas, and interactive study sessions.
- Hybrid Access: Most of our weekend teachings are available on Zoom, allowing you to learn from home while still participating in Q&A segments.
- Structured Courses: For those ready to commit, our multi-week programs—such as our Lamrim deep-dives—offer the opportunity to study a topic comprehensively with consistent guidance from the same teacher.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a Buddhist to attend these sessions? No. Our teachings are open to everyone, regardless of your personal beliefs or background. We focus on tools for mental clarity, compassion, and emotional management that are universally applicable.
Can I ask questions during the sessions? Yes. Many of our sessions, especially the weekend intensives, include dedicated segments where you can ask our teachers about posture, philosophical concepts, or challenges you are facing in your practice.
How can I support the centre? CKSL runs entirely on the generosity of our community. If you find value in these teachings, we encourage you to join our monthly donor program, which helps us continue to host our teachers and maintain our centre in Bangalore.
