Namgyal Monastery Institute of Buddhist Studies (Du Khor Choe Ling)

201 Tibet Drive, Ithaca, New York 14850, USA

Founded in 1992, Namgyal Monastery Institute of Buddhist Studies is the North American Seat of the Personal Monastery of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. As a branch of the main Namgyal Monastery located in Dharamsala, India, the primary mission of the Ithaca branch is to offer Western students the opportunity to study authentic Tibetan Buddhism in a monastic setting.

In keeping with the tradition of the original Namgyal Monastery in Tibet, Namgyal-Ithaca is a non-sectarian institution and thus offers students the opportunity to study aspects of all the sects in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Classes at the monastery are taught by our faculty of Namgyal monks and visiting teachers. Students are part-time and full-time and range in age, background, interest and profession.

Programs include a three year core curriculum, weekend teachings, summer retreats, daily meditation, conferences, guided pilgrimages, and the celebration of Tibetan holidays. Namgyal’s visiting faculty includes prominent western scholars, clergy, and teachers from all traditions of Buddhism.

In 2017, Namgyal-Ithaca completed construction of Dü Khor Choe Ling (DKCL) on a 28-wooded tract of land three miles south of Ithaca. DKCL is the first monastery in the world devoted to the promotion of the study and practice of the Kalachakra. Kalachakra retreats are held there each summer and spring.
