About Me

I was born in a small remote village in Tibet. At age 16, I became a monk and became a refugee in India where I've been living since then.

Music, Movies, and Books

As a monk, I am not really supposed to listen to music and watch movies. I read a lot of books though!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a teacher at the monastery, and I would love to learn and teach my guests in order to share with my students the new insights I may have gained from our discussions.

Good food and conversation, and helpful life advice.
