Who We Are

Over the years the group evolved into the current Center, which continues to offer Tibetan Mahayana Dharma by qualified teachers. Our Mission The mission of the Tibetan Buddhism Center for World Peace San Antonio is to bring peace to the world by providing authentic Dharma to all individuals who are seeking to increase their wisdom and compassion for the benefit of all. |
