Welcome to Kunzang Palyul Choling (KPC), offering a place of spiritual refuge, a worldwide organization linked through the internet, and a movement dedicated to keeping compassion alive in the world. Founded by Jetsunma Ahkon Lhamo (Alyce Zeoli) in the tradition of Vajrayana Buddhism, KPC also represents a significant step for feminine leadership in the modern world of the Dharma.

The power of prayer
In the Prayer Room at KPC, a network of large and unusual crystals holds, amplifies, and broadcasts the spiritual energy of the 24 Hour Prayer Vigil (on-going at KPC since 1985). What if that very energy – of love, disciplined commitment, and longing for the freedom of all beings from suffering – could enhance your own spiritual practice? Read more
Visit Our Other Website – Tibetan Buddhist Altar.org
As practitioners, we are not always able to practice in a temple or with sangha. With our new web site, Tibetan Buddhist Altar, we offer access to a virtual altar and prayer or meditation space that is just a click of the mouse away.

From Jetsunma:
I remain dedicated and obligated to the well-being of all sentient beings. The events described above have greatly challenged my own health and courage but my greatest concern is the confusion that may be sown and the potential harm to our lineage.
Sometimes falsehood is best illuminated by simplicity. So I suggest:
- When you read or hear someone who might claim to be a recognized Tulku or claims to be a secret Tulku ask yourselves and them who recognized them as such.
- When someone refuses to identify themselves then ask what are they hiding.
It is simple to ascertain whether a tweet truly comes from me or not because I use a Verified Twitter Account.
Any tweet from an account purporting to be mine and/or sounding like mine but which is unverified is not mine.
