Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition
The FPMT is an organization devoted to preserving and spreading Mahayana Buddhism worldwide by creating opportunities to listen, reflect, meditate, practice and actualize the unmistaken teachings of the Buddha and based on that experience spreading the Dharma to sentient beings. We provide integrated education through which people’s minds and hearts can be transformed into their highest potential for the benefit of others, inspired by an attitude of universal responsibility and service. We are committed to creating harmonious environments and helping all beings develop their full potential of infinite wisdom and compassion. Our organization is based on the Buddhist tradition of Lama Tsongkhapa of Tibet as taught to us by our founders Lama Thubten Yeshe and Lama Thubten Zopa Rinpoche.

Approaching enlightenment is a gradual process, but once you attain it, there’s no going back; when you reach the fully awakened state of mind, the moment you experience that, you remain enlightened forever.

Rinpoche gave an introduction to thought transformation and explained its benefits, captured in a thirty-minute video. Thought transformation, Lama Zopa Rinpoche said, is about “how to utilize your problems, including death, sicknesses, whatever—something that you don’t like, something that your self-cherishing thoughts do not like, does not wish for, or your attachment doesn’t want—you are using that in the path to enlightenment. If you are experiencing obstacles to practicing Dharma, you utilize the obstacles in the path to enlightenment, to achieve enlightenment quicker.” Read in full and watch the video …

Help Create a Zangdog Palri Temple at Lawudo
At Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s request, a Zangdog Palri (three-dimensional pure land temple of Guru Rinpoche) is being built at Lawudo Retreat Center, Nepal. Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava) is perhaps the most universally cherished realized being in all of Tibetan Buddhism. He came to Tibet from India in the 8th century and helped establish a pure lineage which is still practiced today by all four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism around the world. All are invited to help actualize this important temple at Lawudo. You can read more about this project and follow progress as it develops.
