With deep sadness and reverence we share news of a great loss for Tibetan Buddhism and the world. His Eminence the 104th Ganden Trisur Rinpoche Jetsun Lobsang Tenzin, showed the aspect of passing away on September 26, 2025 at his residence at Sera Je Monastery, Bylakkupe, India.
H.E. Ganden Trisur Rinpoche was teacher to thousands of Sangha and disciples worldwide and many within the FPMT organization, particularly from Kopan Monastery, offering tremendous support to Kopan over the years. Participants of the 2025 CPMT Summit at Kopan were blessed to receive Rinpoche’s wisdom and presence during a very special visit to Kopan during the meeting in April.
His Eminence was appointed the 104th Ganden Tripa by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama in 2017, and he successfully served in this seat until November 2024. The position of Ganden Tripa, which can be translated as “holder of the Ganden throne,” is the head of the Gelug school of Tibetan Buddhism. Unlike reincarnation lineages, the Ganden Tripa is an appointed position, held for seven years, and alternately filled by the Jangtse Choje and the Sharpa Choje.
We will continue to dedicate our pujas and practices to His Eminence week commencing 29th October including Lama Choepa on Thursday at 11 am
Established in 1996, Jamyang Leeds Buddhist Centre is not only a place for the study and practice of Tibetan Buddhism in the Mahayana tradition, but also a dedicated wellbeing hub for the local community. Following the lineage of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and affiliated with The Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition, our centre serves as a sanctuary for physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
We are part of an international network of Buddhist Centres that provide a holistic approach to spiritual and personal development under the guidance of Lama Zopa Rinpoche and Lama Thubten Yeshe. At Jamyang Leeds, we embrace the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism while focusing on nurturing overall wellbeing, making it an inclusive space for people of all backgrounds to find peace, balance, and support.
In addition to our spiritual programs, you can visit our relaxed vegetarian café, browse through our shop featuring dharma supplies, books, and a selection of preloved items, or simply unwind in our well-stocked Buddhist library.

MEET OUR RESIDENT TIBETAN TEACHER >
We’re delighted to announce that Jamyang Leeds has received approval for Geshe Rinchen Wangyal to be our first Tibetan resident Teacher. This is a significant milestone for our centre, Jamyang Leeds hasn’t had a resident Geshe in its 26 year history, so this is a big step and we hope you’ll join us as we enter this significant period in our history.
