I was looking to sign up for the meditation teacher training course which took place yesterday and received an invoice for a course I did not sign up for today? No direct communication or follow up. The lack of professionalism and push for sales is concerning.
The US hub of Tibetan culture preservation with regular Buddhist instruction, artifacts and fine art, exhibition space, and cultural events. Directly affiliated with His Holiness, the Dali Lama, and founded and sponsored by luminaries of American culture. Also affiliated with the Tibet House in New Delhi, India.
Beautiful Tibetan cultural center in the heart of NYC downtown. There is a lovely small gift shop, an in-depth library of Himalayan-related themes and topics, an intimate shrine room, and a gallery-events space that is bright and accommodating. I always love visiting for art openings, meditations, lectures, or performances. Do check their schedule for opening hours, and sign up as a member to experience all their exquisite offerings.
I was visiting this location as research for a project. The space is open and free to public visits. Quiet gallery space with a small meditation room for prayer/worship. They have an incredible library which I could have spent hours investigating. Donations are recommended ($5). Overall, would recommend to anyone interested in learning about Tibet and Buddism.
Amazing place. Even if your not a Buddist. If you love history, the arts and good vibes, its a must go
My second visit to this very interesting small museum. Great for a quick visit or a long linger. I think they also run programs as well but youd have to check the website. I brought a small youth group there unannounced and they were very welcoming and invited us roam around and enjoy the artifacts. The youth were allowed to open and look through a beautiful book of Tibetan murals signed by the Dalai Lama! Full of fascinating pieces with a little temple in the back. Some pieces were hundreds of years old, parchment, figurines, items found in the temples, etc.
Beautiful space with wonderful art and artifacts, as well as a wonderful little library and gift shop.
Tibet House US is a gem in Manhattan. I love the place and the people working and attending activities there. Please consider to visit this place, it is worthy in many ways.
Fabulous. New Years Day Chaleesas.
It was the annual music NYday meeting. They gave flowers, fruit and cake in the end.
I feel like I would be encouraging negativity to be critical of this place. Ive got to be mindful and positive.Honestly the art here is amazing, even if they keep it a bit warm.
An urban mecca for Tibetan Buddhism that both Buddhists and non-Buddhists can appreciate. The best way to experience Tibet House is to attend one of the centers special events. I attended the opening ceremony of The Maitreya Projects Heart Shrine Relic Tour and found it to be phenomenal. For the Tibetan enthusiast, the library is home to over 1,000 books on Tibetan culture and history, including books and audio cassette tapes on the Tibetan language.
Very interesting house
New Years Day! Hanuman Chalisa!
Great space but would love to have more guided meditation. I love the gallery.
Wonderful Tibetan artwork, nice organized Library, great people and a great place to learn about Tibetan culture.
Visiting from Australia, as a student at Buddha House FPMT. Tibet House is a serene, inspiring sanctuary celebrating Tibetan culture and Buddhadharma right in the hustle and bustle of NYC. With a comprehensive library, well-stocked shopped and connection with many invigorating teachers, its a definite recommendation for anyone interested in Tibetan Buddhism.
The place is beautiful and we had a nice meditation experience.
All are welcome to come meditate and appreciate the beautiful salvaged art from Tibet.
New years day Chanting the Hanuman Chalisa
Visit this urban oasis during one of the center’s special events and you’ll be treated to all that is special and magical about this Buddhist Mecca.
The exhibition is small but the library has an expansive collection of rare tibet-related books.
I enjoyed doing a lecture there.
