Welcome!

MISSION STATEMENT

Tashi Gatsel Ling contributes to whole-community engagement by providing contemporary practical applications of Buddhist wisdom and compassion in a welcoming environment. 

Explore and engage in Buddhist practice: meditation study, teachings, engaged Buddhism and retreats led by Buddhist monastic teachers. 

We value the profound benefit of a full sangha as established by the Buddha: ordained monastics and lay practitioners supporting each other in Dharma. 

MAY 2024 Update: We are actively engaged in establishing an Eco-Dharma Center in mid-coast Maine for our spiritual coordinator Ani la Tenzin Dasel and visiting ordained female monastics in the Nalanda~ Vajrayana tradition. We rejoice to share that work is currently underway to establish a 24′ yurt to house our SC and visiting Tibetan Buddhist monastics.

We rejoice in His Holiness the Great XIV Dalai Lama’s continued and ever present activities of blessings for happiness and world peace.
