bio Geshe Thubten Sherab was born in a small village in the western part of Nepal to a Kagyu-Nyingma family. He entered Kopan Monastery at the age of nine and completed his Geshe studies at the famous Sera Je monastery in South India, followed by a year at Gyumed Tantric College.

He then completed retreat and teaching assignments in the United States and Asia. Since then, Geshe Sherab has served the Foundation for Preservation of Mahayana Tradition (FPMT) in a number of roles including sitting on the FPMT board and as headmaster of the young monks’ school at Kopan monastery. For a number of years, Geshe-la has been traveling and teaching at FPMT centers in Australia, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Asia, and Europe, while also serving as resident teacher at Thubten Norbu Ling in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Geshela has a unique gift of presenting often complex Buddhist topics in a simple, warm and accessible manner. He has much experience with Western students, which helps him to explain Dharma to us in a practical and applicable way.
