A Shamatha and Vipassana Meditation Retreat led by Geshe Tenzin Lhabsum

Facilitator:
Geshe Tenzin Lhabsum
(GomChen) is an Indian monk from Mumbai who trained in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition of Sutra and Tantra and got his Doctorate from the Institute of Buddhist
Dialectics in Dharmsala and his Geshe degree from Drepung Gomang Monastery (Karnataka) in October 2021.

He used to be an electronics engineer and worked as a professional sound engineer for 11 years before giving up everything in 2004 and heading for the mountains of Dharmsala. There he spent
three years studying the Tibetan language, after which he received his ordination from His Holiness The Dalai Lama and took up the 16-year study programme at the Institute of Buddhist
Dialectics, studying Buddhist logic, philosophy, and epistemology. Along with his studies, he spent the last 10 years of the programme teaching young monks English literature, science, and
philosophy. The Dalai Lama’s Office recognises him as the second non-Himalayan Indian and the first from Mumbai to complete a Doctorate in Buddhist philosophy.
