Overview

We invite you to join us for a special weekend of remembrance, gratitude, and practice honouring the extraordinary lives of Geshe Damcho Yonten and Gen Wangchen, two eminent masters of the Gelug tradition whose kindness continues to benefit our community to this day.

This gathering takes place around the anniversaries of both of their passing, offering a meaningful opportunity to come together celebration of their immense contribution to the Dharma in the West.

For the Lam Rim community in particular, we remember with deep gratitude Geshe Damcho Rinpoche, the founding spiritual guide of Lam Rim, whose tireless efforts firmly established the Dharma here in Wales.

The aim of the weekend is to be a fun, lighthearted and sociable dharma celebration, with competitions, walks, food and puja, whilst also to help raise money to secure the future of the centre.

Teacher Biographies

Teachers of whose lives we are celebrating

Geshe Damcho Yonten — Founder of Lam Rim

Geshe Damcho Yonten (1930–2017) was a highly accomplished Gelug scholar and practitioner who trained from childhood at Drepung Loseling Monastic University, one of the great monastic seats of learning within the Tibetan Buddhist world. Having completed the traditional and demanding course of study leading to the Geshe degree, he was later invited to the West, where he became one of the early generation of Tibetan teachers to establish Lam Rim teachings in the United Kingdom.

With immense humility, patience, and quiet determination, Geshe-la became the founding spiritual guide of Lam Rim in Wales, laying the authentic foundations upon which the community continues to grow today. Those who met him remember not only his scholarly depth but his gentleness, consistency, and unwavering dedication to his students. The very existence and continued flourishing of Lam Rim stands as a living testament to his extraordinary kindness and vision.

Geshe Wangchen — Senior Gelug Teacher and Jamyang London Resident Teacher

Geshe Wangchen, a Lharampa Geshe of the Gelug tradition, also trained extensively at Drepung Loseling Monastic University, sharing the same great monastic heritage as Geshe Damcho Rinpoche. After more than two decades of rigorous philosophical study, dialectical debate, and contemplative retreat, he emerged as a highly qualified scholar-practitioner within the classical Gelug system.

Geshe Wangchen went on to serve for many years as a resident teacher at Jamyang Buddhist Centre London, where he became widely respected for his clear, methodical presentation of the Lam Rim and Buddhist philosophy. His teaching style is characterised by precision, structure, and deep faithfulness to the classical texts, while remaining accessible and supportive for Western students. Through his sustained teaching activity in the UK and internationally, Geshe-la has played an important role in preserving and transmitting the authentic scholarly and contemplative traditions of Tibetan Buddhism to new generations of practitioners.

Special Guests

Teachers attending to support the event

Phara Khenchen Rinpoche

Phara Khenchen Rinpoche is recognised by His Holiness the Dalai Lama as the reincarnation of the respected Gelug Buddhist master, Khensur Pema Gyaltsen.

Born in Tibet in 1989, he was taken into exile at the age of three in order to receive a traditional Buddhist education. He entered Drepung Loseling Monastic College in South India, where he studied for more than twenty-five years under the guidance of Geshe Wangchen. Following the completion of the monastery's extensive programme of Buddhist philosophy, debate and monastic training, he was awarded the Geshe degree. He subsequently undertook further studies at Gyumed Tantric College. On the advice of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Rinpoche later travelled to the United Kingdom to study English. During the Covid period, he spent time at Land of Joy Retreat Centre in Northumberland, where he continued his language studies and Buddhist practice.

Today, Phara Khenchen Rinpoche teaches Buddhist philosophy and practice to students in the UK and internationally. He is known for combining the traditional monastic training of the Gelug lineage with an accessible and approachable teaching style.

Geshe Tenzin Losel

Geshe Tenzin Losel was born in mid-20th century Britain. He first met Buddhist teachings in England thanks to the exceptionally kind efforts of Lama Yeshe and Lama Zopa, reaching out to westerners. He left for India in 1990 for further studies and received full ordination as a Buddhist monk in the Tibetan tradition from His Holiness the Dalai Lama in 1994. He is one of the handful of Westerners trained for two decades in the traditional Tibetan way as a geshe. While a student at the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics in Dharamsala, he attended many public teachings by His Holiness there. In 2006 he received his geshe degree from Drepung Loseling, the monastery where the late Geshe Damcho, founder of Lam Rim Wales also trained. After returning to Britain to care for his parents in their last years, he moved in 2018 to Nalanda Monastery in France. As well as teaching, he has been involved in translating vinaya materials, which deal with ethical conduct and vows, especially for monastics. In fulfilment of Geshe Damcho’s request to him to teach in his centres, he is now associated with Lam Rim Wales and Lam Rim Bristol.

Overview

Through a combination of presentation, meditation and discussion, we will be exploring the Buddhist practices of Lojong (Thought Transformation).

These teachings can help us to transform our thoughts and feelings from being self-centred, deluded and destructive to becoming loving, compassionate and beneficial. As well as putting us in a better position to help others, this also addresses the root causes of our own problems and difficulties, helping us to become more peaceful, happy and positive about ourselves.

We will be looking at ‘The 8 Verses of Thought Transformation’ by Langri Tangpa, an eleventh century master, which contain the essence of the Lojong practices. Download the text here >

These practices particularly offer ways of bringing the kinds of problems and difficulties, which we all experience in daily life, into our practice and utilising them as opportunities to develop and transform our minds.

Key themes will include:-

• Embracing difficult situations as opportunities to grow and apply our practice

• Applying Buddhist psychology to become more positive and resilient when we encounter problems in the future

• Developing a kind/loving heart

• Applying wisdom so we think, feel and act more in align with the interdependent nature of all that exists

Topic To Be Confirmed

Lam Rim Wales is deeply honoured to announce a forthcoming visit from His Eminence Serkong Tsenshap Rinpoche.

The present Serkong Rinpoche is the recognised reincarnation of the previous Kyabje Tsenshab Serkong Tugse Rinpoche (1914–1983), one of the seven tsenshab, or master debate partners, of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, and one of his close teachers.

The previous Serkong Rinpoche is remembered as one of the great Gelug masters of the twentieth century, renowned for his depth of practice, scholarship, humility, and compassionate activity. Many years ago, Lam Rim Wales was blessed to receive teachings from this previous incarnation, making this forthcoming visit especially meaningful for the Centre and our community.

Today, H.E. Serkong Tsenshap Rinpoche continues this lineage of teaching and practice, offering profound yet accessible teachings with warmth, clarity, and humour.

Further details, including the schedule will be shared soon.

We very much look forward to welcoming Rinpoche to Lam Rim Wales.

Last Years Retreat

After the strong positive response and meaningful experiences shared by participants at last year’s retreat, we are pleased to offer the Medicine Buddha Retreat again in 2026. While the theme and core practices will be similar, the retreat will be refreshed and refined based on last year’s experience. Join us for a nourishing weekend of meditation, reflection, and compassionate practice in the beautiful setting of the Lam Rim Buddhist Centre Wales.

Overview

Medicine Buddha is an ancient, powerful meditation practice that can heal our body, mind and spirit - personally and globally. We’ll begin our weekend with creating a safe, sharing space amongst the group. From there, we explore the Medicine Buddha meditations from Tibet and physical exercises from Chinese Qi Gong that promote balance of five elements in the body and heart/mind. These practices enable us to begin to relax into the natural calm state of well being, help us slow down, be present and open to what is “alive” in each one of us. The meditation includes imagination and mantra recitation as well as resting in nature of mind. And of course, we’ll have time for sharing, asking questions and discussion.

We will use the short meditation manual: The Healing Buddha which can be found on the FPMT website (here).

Overview

Why do we get so caught up in things? Why can one small problem take over our whole day? And why do anxiety, stress or dissatisfaction sometimes remain even when, on the surface, life seems to be going well?

Buddhism suggests that much of our unease comes not simply from what happens to us, but from how we see things. We tend to experience people, situations and even ourselves as fixed, solid and independent. Yet when we look more closely, everything exists through a combination of causes, conditions, relationships and changing circumstances.

Drawing on his bookTsonkghapa’s Praise for Dependent Relativity, a commentary on the verses that Je Tsongkhapa (1357 - 1419) wrote immediately after realising emptiness for the first time, Geshe Losel will introduce the Buddha’s profoundest insight, the wisdom that liberates from all suffering.

This may sound philosophical, but its implications are very down to earth. If things are less solid and permanent than we imagine, then our problems, identities, relationships and emotional reactions can also become much more workable. We can begin to hold life a little more lightly, respond with greater flexibility, and create space between what happens and how we react.

Over the weekend, Geshe Losel will guide us through these ideas with teaching, meditation, reflection and discussion, helping to connect Buddhism’s deepest wisdom with the challenges and experiences of ordinary life.

This teaching is organised in collaboration with BuddhaWeb, Czech Republic and so will be available to join online for anyone who wishes to join.

We will explore:

• Why Buddhism says our way of seeing things matters so much.

• How everything depends upon causes, conditions and relationships.

• How our exaggerated assumptions about ourselves and others create stress.

• How a different way of seeing can reduce attachment, frustration and anxiety.

• The connection between dependent relativity and emptiness.

• How these insights can help us live with more openness, flexibility and compassion.

This retreat will be hosted at Lam Rim Buddhist Centre Wales but the teachings can be joined online.
