Tashi Tsering (born 1937) is a highly respected Tibetan teacher, in the Gelug tradition, who has lived and taught in the West for many years. He has hundreds of students throughout Australia and New Zealand as well as in India and Tibet, who have been inspired by his personal qualities and great learning.[1]
Born in eastern Tibet in 1937, Geshe Tashi Tsering became a monk at the age of seven years and at seventeen went to study at Sera Monastery in Lhasa. After fleeing the communist takeover of Tibet in 1959, he continued his monastic education in exile in India, becoming a Lharampa Geshe in 1984.[2]
Geshe-la has been the resident teacher at Chenrezig Institute in Queensland since 1990. He presents an extensive programme of Buddhist teachings offered at the centre, which caters to a wide range of interests and experience.[3]
Geshe-la should not be confused with Geshe Tashi Tsering of Jamyang Buddhist Centre, London.
