E-Vam holds online courses by donation throughout the year. We seek to create an intimate online environment led by Senior students in the Kagyu and Nyingma schools of Tibetan Buddhism. 

Topics that are discussed include: 

• Meditational practices from the Mahayana tradition such as Lojong (enlightened heart), Tonglen (giving and taking), The 4 Brahmaviharas – generating love, compassion, joy and equanimity.
• Mahamudra – the great seal, and Dzogchen – the great perfection.
• And many other such topics that help to continue to ground the Buddhist philosophy in a practical way through meditation and by developing and deepening our understanding of the profound Buddhist teachings. 

 The discussions are grounded through meditational practice, and traditional prays that begin and end each session.

 Courses usually runs one evening a week for 4 to 6 weeks.

Khandro has taught and given commentary of Traleg Rinpoche’s teachings in Australia, America, Europe, U.K., and South East Asia.
