Director
"Meditation and daily life practice are a path of discovery because there is something to be discovered. It is called the Nature of Mind, Buddha Nature or the Indestructible Heart Essence. But what is it? That is what we each have to discover within ourselves. The path is the awakening process by means of which we come to recognise it."

Rigdzin Shikpo welcomes you to the website of the Longchen Foundation.

The Longchen Foundation is a community of Buddhist teachers and students practicing meditation in the Mahayana Maha-Ati (Dzogchen) tradition of Buddhism.

Our approach is to reveal the essence of the Tibetan teachings in a way that is genuine and authentic, and at the same time directly accessible to Westerners and Western lifestyles.

Our programmes and teachings are suitable for everyone, whether you are just starting out on the path of meditation or have been practising for many years.

All you need is the curiosity to explore your own experience with an open mind, and a desire to connect ever more fully with your world for the benefit of others.
