BENCHEN ODENSE
Benchen Karma Geleg Dargye Ling, is a Tibetan Buddhist center in Odense, Denmark under the spiritual guidance of both His Eminence Sangye Nyenpa Rinpoche and Kyabje Tenga Rinpoche.

PURPOSE
The purpose of Benchen Odense is do allow people to dedicate their time to study, reflect and train in Buddhism in the form tought in the Karma Kagyu lineages as well as the Chokling Tersar form represented in the Nyingma tradition.
INTENTION
The motivation of Benchen Odense is to allow people to aspire, to dedicate their time in studying, reflecting and training in Buddhism in the form tought in the Karma Kagyu lineages by both Sangye Nyingpa Rinpoche and Tenga Rinpoche.
The emphasis is on the Mahayana view of Buddhism, both sutra and tantra vehicles where the path is anchored in love and kindness through the training in and assimilation of the six paramitas – the six transcending actions. The development and completion stage visualization practices offered in Benchen Odense, accomodate the practitioners journey further along the Vajrayana path of means and knowledge. Through the blessing of following these authentic practices, receiving their blessings, our clinging to fixed ideas and wrong world views subside.
