Description
Founded at Tsegyalgar in 1994 by Chögyal Namkhai Norbu, the primary mission of the Shang Shung Institute in America is to preserve Tibetan cultural knowledge and to foster interest in Tibetan Arts, Culture, History, Philosophy and Religion.
Among the Institute's achievements in the nine years since its inception are; translating Chogyal Namkhai Norbu's groundbreaking three-volume history of Tibet, Light of Kailash (ongoing, under the direction of Dr. Donatella Rossi); developing a comprehensive English-language curriculum and texts for the study of Tibetan Medicine (including the year-round residency of Tibetan physician, Dr. Phuntsog Wangmo); maintaining an extensive audio library of educational resources in Tibetan Medicine (open to study by individuals from every continent), and a supporting the creation of thangka series associated with the Dzogchen lineages (created by Master painter Glen Eddy).
The Shang Shung Institute in America is a non-profit and tax exempt 501 (c) organization incorporated in the State of Massachusetts. The Institute receives funding from private donations, corporate matching grants, and grants.
