Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche - The benefits of studying Buddhism

Показать описание

The opportunity that we offer at Rangjung Yeshe Institute, is precisely this: To study the Buddha's teachings academically to a very high standard (up to PhD level), but within a living tradition. Here at RYI, students are surrounded by practice as well as theory, by the depth of Tibetan as well as Western scholarship. As Rinpoche says, this offers the chance to become a Scholar-Practitioner, someone who understands the teachings and can also apply them in daily life.

Rangjung Yeshe Institute (RYI) offers traditional Tibetan Buddhist teachings with a modern Buddhist Studies perspective, leading to BA, MA and PhD degrees in Buddhist Studies. We have conducted study programs in Nepal for more than 25 years. Since 2002 RYI has partnered with Kathmandu University offering academic credit for those study programs. In 2009 RYI launched its online learning program. Our aim is to utilise our expertise and experience to enable students from around the world to study Buddhism and Himalayan Languages with us.
