Overview:

Everyone is welcome to this class. We will begin learning how to read and write the alphabet and then continue on through Joe Wilson’s book Translating Buddhism from Tibetan. We will also study the Tibetan for some of the common prayers used in teachings and daily practices. This class will be taught by Susan Altabet and native Tibetan speaker Dolkar Gyaltsen. (Please register)

Are you thankful that the Dharma has flown into our lives on the wings of the Tibetan Language? In its current endangered state, this precious, holy language could become extinct in a very few years if we don’t take some action to try to keep it alive. Hope you can join us to help preserve the Tibetan Dharma language, and to deepen your own Dharma practice by learning to understand, read, and recite Dharma prayers and texts in Tibetan.

Instructor:
Susan Altabet has been studying Tibetan for more than 25 years. Her main teacher has been Dr. Lozang Jamspal.

She began wondering how she would ever have time to learn Tibetan and decided that she would find a class and try to study each day while riding NYC subway. So she did that and little by little and over the years, it grew into something magically meaningful. Reading and reciting Dharma prayers and texts in the original language adds a special dimension, like receiving a lung direct from the guru.
Hope you can join us in helping to preserve the Tibetan Dharma language and deepening your Dharma practice.
