Introduction: We are delighted that Genla (teacher) Lodoe Rabsang has accepted our centre’s invitation to teach on the book, The Adornment of the Middle Way, Shantarakshita’s Madhyamakalankara with commentary by Jamgon Mipham. This important text is a must study for serious Buddhist practitioners as Shantarakshita has skillfully presented the profound Madhyamaka as a means for us to understand the ultimate truth.

About the teacher: Gen Lodoe Rabsang first joined the Dirru monastery in Bir, India to learn ritual. After completing his ritual education, he joined Dzongsar Khyentse Chokyi Lodro Institute to study Buddhist philosophy where he graduated with an Acharya degree. Since graduation, he has taught in Dzongsar Institute as well as different monasteries and foreign centres while continuing to further his education and training.  STTL is fortunate that Gen Lodoe Rabsang has agreed to teach this course over zoom so all of us could benefit from this teaching.

Text: The text Gen Lodoe Rabsang will be using as a basis for his teaching is The Adornment of the Middle Way, Shantarakshita’s Madhyamakalankara with commentary by Jamgon Mipham, translated by the Padmakara translation group, published by Shambhala. During the class, relevant sections of the text may be displayed onscreen. However, students are recommended to have a copy to study and attend the class.
