The FPMT Basic Programme is an intermediate to advanced level 5 year study programme looking at Buddhist Texts from great masters like Lama Tsong Khapa, Shantideva and especially the Buddha himself!

The teacher is Venerable Losang Gendun, currently resident teacher of Maitreya Instituut Amsterdam. After having practiced mainly Theravada Buddhism for twenty years, he became a monk in the Tibetan tradition in 2006. Venerable Gendun is a warm and engaging teacher. His main aim is the translation of traditional methods in contemporary terms, to make them accessible for a Western audience.

Topics for 2024 include: Mahayana Mind Training; Ornament for Clear Realisation Chapter 4; The Heart Sutra; The Three Basic Bodies

This course started in 2021 and is now closed for new students, however you are still welcome to come along as a listener. If you’d like to know more about the FPMT Basic Programme or how to become a listener, please email our Basic Programme Coordinator, Chrissie at bp@jamyangleeds.co.uk
