Lama Tsony

As a Buddhist monk for over 25 years, Lama Tsony completed two traditional 3-year retreats under the great meditation master Lama Gendun Rinpoche.  For 15 years he was the Abbot of Kundrel Ling Monastery in France where hundreds of other Westerners have also completed 3-year retreats.  Since 1999 he has been teaching at the Bodhi Path centers under the spiritual guidance of Shamar Rinpoche.  In 2005 he began the transfer of his responsibilities in the monastic community in order to foster the growing Bodhi Path projects.  Now a lay teacher, Lama Tsony devotes his time to teaching Tibetan Buddhism and meditation practice throughout Europe and the U.S.
