Buddhist Wisdom, Modern Life

How I became a Buddhist: Loppon Yudron Wangmo shares how she began serious dharma practice & became a teacher


Listen Later

Y’all, I’m so pleased to introduce you to a dharma teacher I follow and admire, Loppon Yudron Wangmo. She’s a Western-born teacher who’s now based in California, and in this conversation she shares how she became a Buddhist in the first place, how her practice deepened, what it’s like to do long retreat in the Tibetan tradition, and what it’s been like becoming a teacher (Loppon) in the Nyingma lineage.

Stay tuned for next week’s conversation with Yudron Wangmo about what it means to take refuge in the Buddhist tradition. And spoiler alert: she’s going to offer refuge online to anyone who’s interested! Stay tuned for more details.
