""Karma," he [Buddha] often said, "is intention": i.e., a movement of the mind that occurs each time we think, speak, or act. By being mindful of this process, we come to understand how intentions lead to habitual patterns of behavior, which in turn affect the quality of our experience."
Stephen Batchelor, Buddhism Without Beliefs.

Center's Description
The Nyingma Institure was founded by Tarthang Tulku, an accomplished Tibetan Lama who came to the United States in 1969 and since that time has devoted himself to establishing a firm foundation for Buddhism in the West. For more than thirty years, Western students have worked under his direction to preserve the Buddhist traditions of Asia and to bring the benefits of these teachings into our society.

Today more than ever, we need this knowledge. Dissatisfaction, distraction, and despair seem pervasive and even our best minds hold out little hope for real change. Modern education has not taught us how the mind shapes our experience, how emotions can be understood and transformed, or how to awaken the natural joy, compassion, and wisdom that lie within our hearts.
