Rigpa offers a special series of outreach programmes, translating the core values of the ancient wisdom tradition of Tibet into different fields of contemporary life. These include:

 

Spiritual Care Education Programme
Rigpa's Spiritual Care Education Programme offers practical ways in which the wisdom and compassion of the Buddhist teachings can benefit those facing illness or death, and help support their families and care-givers.

 

Practical Wisdom for the Modern World
This specially designed training for managers and business leaders shows how to apply the Buddhist teachings in order to overcome stress and to integrate principles of compassion and awareness into the workplace.

 

International Forum on Buddhism and Medicine
In a spirit of dialogue and exchange, these events bring together eminent Buddhist masters with leading doctors, scientists and historians from all over the world, to share the view of their respective traditions.

 

Preserving the Wisdom Culture of Tibet
Rigpa actively supports a number of monasteries, nunneries, and study centres in the East, as well as individual masters and practitioners, social programmes and an annual programme of major practice intensives and great prayer gatherings or meetings in India and the Himalayas.

 

Treasury of Wisdom
Since the 1970s, Rigpa and Sogyal Rinpoche have played a major part in presenting Tibetan Buddhism to the modern world, hosting teachings by the Dalai Lama, the heads of the four schools of Tibetan Buddhism, and many of the most outstanding masters of our time. The Treasury of Wisdom project aims to preserve and make available this unique collection of rare and precious teachings.
