Mission: : Drepung Loseling Monastery, Inc. operating under the name of Drepung Loseling Institute is the North American seat of Drepung Loseling Monastery now re-established in India and an affiliate of Emory University. In implementing its vision to providing a center for the nurturance of inner peace and kindness, community understanding, and global healing, the Institute has two major missions:1) To contribute to North American culture by providing theoretical knowledge and practical training in Tibetan Buddhist scholarly traditions for Western students, scholars, and the general public. 2) To help preserve the endangered Tibetan culture, which today leads a fragile existence in the exiled refugee communities in India and Nepal.
