WELCOME

Tibetan Buddhism is structured on the notion of 'transmission', the passing on of teachings and methods from the teacher to the student - who in his turn hands on the teachings to his own students.

This has given rise to a number of 'lineages'; lines of descent of dharma wisdom from one great master to the next. These masters are often 'reincarnate lamas', with alternate 'lineage-holders' holding the transmission during the period from the death of the reincarnate to the coming of age of his next incarnation.

Throughout the centuries, different lines of transmission came about, one of these is the Zurmang Kagyud lineage
