Welcome to Summit Dharma Center/Bodhicharya Colorado

Tashi Delek!


Summit Dharma Center (Bodhicharya Colorado) is a Rimé (non-sectarian) institute dedicated to the development of wisdom and compassion by facilitating serious study and practice among individuals and the community. We actively work for the promotion of lovingkindness to oneself and all living beings by encouraging contemplative and meditative practices in the Kagyu Buddhist tradition.

We are a world-wide community with groups meeting on almost every continent and with hundreds of active members. We have a brand new long term retreat center in the world's last Buddhist kingdom, another new retreat center in Phuket, Thailand, which you can visit for a retreat of any length. Our Phuket, Thailand center is associated with TEFL Phuket, where you can teach English and do retreat to help offset the cost, if desired. We offer classes/retreats using modern broadcast technology that enables anyone, anywhere to connect with Buddhist wisdom and teachings.

Summit Dharma Center/Bodhicharya is affiliated with the Karma Kagyu lineage of Indo-Tibetan Buddhism and continues to benefit and grow under the kind guidance of Most Venerable Ringu Tulku Rinpoche.
