Diwakar Buddhist Academy
The Diwakar Buddhist Academy is situated in Kalimpong/India. Approximately 150 monastic students between ages of 16 and 30 years are studying Buddhist philosophy, Tibetan language and literature as well as English here
At the end of the 10 years studying period, they will receive a certified degree, which proves their extensive Buddhist education. The graduates then have a great choice:
They can teach Buddhist philosophy, join a traditional three-year retreat or intensify their studies by obtaining a master’s degree of Buddhist studies at the Sharminub Research Institute in Kathmandu / Nepal. This project is the future of the Dharma, because here the khenpos receive an intensive education in order to pass on qualified teachings later.
