Recordist's notes

The Institute is particularly connected to one of the four Tibetan Buddhist schools, the Gelugpa school, founded in Tibet in the 14th century by Lama Tsong Khapa. This extraordinary scholar and practitioner inspired a whole lineage of highly realized Buddhist practitioners among whom His Holiness the Dalai Lama, guide and inspiration of the FPMT (Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition), is the heir today. His Holiness taught twice at the Institute, in 1982 and 1993. Captation : ZOOMH6 Triton FetHead Microphone BasicUcho by LOM
