    This special spiritual refuge we all know as Kathok Centre was

    an aspiration of one dedicated couple, the Ayers, wanting to

    make a home for their teacher, V.V. Lingtrul Rinpoche. After

    founding the Society in 1995, 22 years later Lingtrul Rinpoche

    now calls Kathok Centre one of his homes!

    The six of us on the Kathok Board of Directors volunteer our

    time and resources to enable Lingtrul Rinpoche to keepspreading the Dharma: an ancient proven pathway to

    enlightenment for all interested and dedicated students. We are

    honored to serve our Teacher and help create the causes of

    happiness for all sentient beings!

    – Teresa Gagnon, Melissa White, Kirsty Barclay, Trevor Jones,
