Because Padmasambhava Buddhist Center is a member-supported organization, we rely on the generosity of our friends and sangha members. You are invited to join and become a member of our worldwide dharma family at PBC.

Watering the Tree that Feeds You
		The most important benefit of membership is the continuation of the Center itself. PBC provides a community for the cultivation of spiritual growth, mutual support and generosity. Membership helps support the mission of the Center, the growth of the Buddha Dharma, and the work of Khenchen Palden Sherab and Khenpo Tsewang Dongyal Rinpoche, our two lamas and teachers. Your support is therefore not only of great merit, but also helps perpetuate a home for your own dharma practice.

Over the past few years, we have been fortunate to realize two of our lamas goals: the completion of our regional retreat center, Padma Gochen Ling, as well as our new Dharma center in Nashville, Yeshe Tsogyal House.

On these two legs, we are walking even more briskly down the road to realizing our lamas' vast vision. With each improvement, more possibilities emerge. So we offer this opportunity to join us in supporting these truly special teachers.

Additionally, PBC-TN offers weekly practices, special events and regular visits by the Khenpos.

Membership Benefits

Membership in PBC-Tennessee automatically gives you membership in PBC International. Members also receive:

• Substantial discounts to all PBC retreats and teachings throughout the world

Membership is an essential component to the functioning of PBC centers and, in turn, to PBC International. Your support locally helps support the Khenpos’ efforts internationally. With a strong membership base, we are able to send donations for the Khenpos' projects whenever needed. .
