Thubten Damchoe Ling, Sierra Friends of Tibet and Saint
Joseph’s Cultural Center are pleased to welcome the return
of Venerable Geshe Tsultim Gyeltsen to Grass Valley for his
5th teaching visit.
Geshe Gyeltsen was born in the Kham province of eastern
Tibet. He holds the highest degree in Buddhist philosophy,
that of a Lharampa Geshe, which he earned during his
23 years at Gaden Shartse Monastic University. Now in
his mid-eighties, Geshe Gyeltsen continues to teach twice
a week at Thubten Dhargye Ling in Long Beach, California
(www.tdling.com). Geshe Gyeltsen has been and continues
to be invited to teach the Dharma at Buddhist Centers
world-wide.
Geshe Gyeltsen has hosted and sponsored several visits by
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama in the Los Angeles area.
He also has hosted and sponsored the Gaden Sharste Monks
Tours which have visited Nevada County since 2001, and
continues to do so.
Geshe Gyeltsen has authored several books and is known for
his compassion and personal warmth, yet he retains a traditional and uncompromising approach to teaching the Dharma.
