"I have often seen in the West that lamas will come and give blessings and empowerments and even short teachings, maybe for a weekend or a few days, and then will leave, and the Western students have no way to follow up with what they have been given. I have also seen that Western students are very interested and want to receive the necessary teachings to progress on the path of Dharma. For this they need continuity. They need a real foundation for true study of the Dharma."
"Mipham Shedra is dedicated to providing that
foundation. Our comprehensive educational program is based on the
traditional system of the classic Buddhist shedra (college), and is
designed to suit the needs of contemporary Western students."
Mipham Shedra, founded by Lhoppon Rechungpa, is a nonprofit (501c),
non-sectarian Vajrayana Buddhist educational institute dedicated to
providing Dharma education to sincere Dharma students of all lineages
and traditions. The Shedra curriculum is based on and dedicated to
propagating the teachings of Jamgön Ju Mipham, Mipham Jamyang Namgyal
Gyamtso, the great 19th-20th century Nyingma scholar/practitioner. It
provides all the courses of study necessary for the understanding of
both Dzogchen and Mahamudra.
