TLI offers a bridge to the ancient wisdom traditions of Tibet as well as the contemporary Tibetans. Our Institute presents classes, seminars, workshops, and public lectures on Tibetan language, culture, literature, and philosophy (this includes on-going programs of study of Tibetan texts, conversational Tibetan, calligraphy, and lectures by guest speakers). All programs are organized by executive director David Curtis who studied at Kagyu Ling Monastic College in France.

Nitartha Institute uniqueness is the depth to which it makes the genuine buddhadharma accessible to western students, in their own language and cultural context. At Nitartha, study is practice as students learn to see their mind and world with fresh eyes. Prajna, or superior knowledge, is awakened by the investigative contemplations and meditations of vipashyana (clear seeing).
