Welcome to Awakening Winds Home Temple

Awakening Winds Home Temple is a sanctuary for Vajrayana Buddhist practice, spiritual friendship, and community.

At the heart of our spiritual lineage is Gyalten Khen Rinpoche, Spiritual Director of Awakening Vajra International and Abbot-Lama of Lama Gaun Tashi Rabten Monastery, Nepal. He is a revered Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhist Master  and scholar in the Gelug tradition, and the heart son of His Eminence Chöden Rinpoche.

His wisdom, compassion, and joy guide our path as teacher and guru. 

Awakening Winds Home Temple was founded by Devi Denson, a Vajrayana practitioner and lineage holder recognized and entrusted by Gyalten Khen Rinpoche to lead Dharma gatherings and offer teachings within the lineage she has received.

Rooted in the living Tibetan Buddhist tradition, Awakening Winds Home Temple welcomes all who wish to explore meditation, Dharma, contemplative practice, and the path of awakening.

For our first Sunday Brunch, Devi Is offering  tender  Polenta Blueberry Pancakes.

To focus our Dharma discussion, Devi provides direction. Together, we provide the reflection, inquiry, and insight.

As a newly gathering sangha, we practice both speaking and deep listening. We look forward to lively conversation, thoughtful inquiry, and shared discovery around the table.
