With your help, Pema has been able to continue to support Buddhist nuns around the world, as well as help many wonderfulcharitable programs and initiatives needing assistance during these challenging times.

Our website has a new look!

We are excited to announce the launch of our newly updated website that showcases the Foundation’s projects and strives to preserve and share Pema’s teachings.

Our goal was to create a seamless experience for all, and we welcome your feedback.

News of Pema

Pema is doing wonderfully, having spent the winter months teaching at Gampo Abbey in Nova Scotia.

Pema will be giving an online talk at Mangala Shri Bhuti on July 18th along with her teacher, Dzigar Kontrul Rinpoche. The talk will be available for viewing through August 18th. A donation is suggested to support the activities of Mangala Shri Bhuti.

It is also not too late to sign up for “A Year with Pema” from Shambhala Publications, with access to live video calls, guided meditation sessions and weekly inspiration. Pema will be giving her third talk in this series on July 28th, and there is still time to register.

Don’t miss these amazing opportunities to hear Pema’s teachings in 2024!

Our Gift to You!

We are offering one of Pema’s early teachings entitled “Self Compassion”, as our gift to you. This talk includes an overview of each of the four limitless qualities: love, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity.
