The Tsawa Monks are a group from Gaden Jangtse Monastery in South India Touring the USA to raise awareness about Tibetan Buddhism and culture.
We seek to promote harmony and peace amongst all people and within each person, and to encourage the cultivation of compassion and kindness towards all living beings through the sharing with others of our ancient and vibrant Tibetan Buddhist traditions.
