Drepung Gomang Center for Engaging Compassion is pleased to welcome a visit by Ani Tenzin Choyang, a dedicated Tibetan Buddhist nun, teacher, and burgeoning research scientist originally from Tibet. Ani Choyang is a scholar who has studied in the US at Emory-Tibet Science Initiative at Emory University. In addition, she is nearing completion of her Geshema Degree (a Doctorate in Buddhist Philosophy and Psychology). Ani la lives at Jangchub Choeling Nunnery in southern India.
Jangchub Choeling Nunnery currently serves a community of 340 nuns.
