Shangpa Academy

The purpose to modernize the way we do seminars is to encourage people to experience and practice the Dharma as much as possible. We make the Shangpa Kagyu teachings accessible through modern technologies to create flexibility and adapt to people’s busy lifestyles. We do not focus on the accumulation of recitations to stop people from feeling guilty or feeling it’s impossible to achieve anything on their path. Modern approach aside, our core principle remains the same: to disseminate the Buddhadharma. This is what’s special about the Path of Shangpa Kagyu online seminar.

• Path of Shangpa Kagyu Seminar – Suffering of samsara
• Path of Shangpa Kagyu Seminar – Karma, Cause and Effect
