About the text:
Pabongka Rinpoche's Liberation in the Palm of Your Hand is the seminal lam-rim text of the 20th century. It is a transcription of a 24 day lam rim teaching given in 1921. Offered as a "practical teaching," it is less scholarly than Je Tsongkhapa's Jang chub lam rim chen mo or The Great Treatise on the Stages of the Path to Enlightenment and as such it is the text from which most modern lamas teach lam rim.

Geshe Ngawang Tenley, who came to Kurukulla from Sera Je monastery in the spring of 2004, has been a monk for over fifteen years. He recently completed his final exams and was conferred the Geshe degree at Sera Je Monastery, and has been Kurukulla Center's head teacher since November 2010. His cheerfulness and humility endear him to everyone he meets.
