Jonang Takten Phuntsok Choeling Monastery

Monastery of the Unwavering Path to Liberation

Welcome

We are a Buddhist monastery situated in the serene landscapes of Shimla, northern India, dedicated to preserving and propagating the ancient Jonang tradition. Rooted in profound teachings, our monastery, named Main Jonang Takten Phentsok Choeling, has a rich history marked by the guidance of revered figures such as Lama Jinpa Gyatso and successive abbots like Choeji Nangwa Rinpoche and Geshe Kunga Rinchen. Embracing a comprehensive curriculum, we offer studies in sutras and mantras, Tibetan calligraphy, English, Hindi, mathematics, and physics. Our commitment extends beyond academic pursuits, fostering both spiritual and intellectual growth for our diverse student community. Join us on a transformative journey, where tradition meets modern education in the heart of the Himalayas.
