Kopan Monastery - Kathmandu, Nepal 2014
Besuch des Klosters Kopan in Kathmandu am 11. April 2014.
Das Kloster ist die Heimat von ca. 360 Mönchen, Lamas, Lehrern und Arbeitern. Die Mönche kommen aus allen Teilen Nepals und Tibets und widmen ihr Leben ausschließlich dem Studium und der Praxis der Lehren des tibetischen Mahayana-Buddhismus (Gelug-Tradition). Alle Wesen sollen - inspiriert von einer Haltung an universeller Verantwortung - ihr volles Potenzial unendlicher Weisheit entwickeln. Ein wundersamer und besonders mystischer Ort - eingebettet in die grüne Natur - am nördlichen Stadtrand von Kathmandu.

When We Stopped Everything To Live With Monks ♥ Boho Diary | Kopan Monastery
We found a beautiful way to spend less travelling and acquire more. Not more in experience, but more in depth. Nepal backpack travel offers so many unique ways to experience the incredible culture, mountains, trekking, and the overall Nepalese way of life. So we decided to start our backpacking Asia trip by bringing our lives to a screeching halt and committing 10 days to a Tibetan Buddhist Monastery. Our lives sometimes seem out of control. All about our devices, all about our channel, all about focussing away from ourselves and too much towards things that have unconsciously sucked us in... so every now and then we have to do something to stop and find the reset button. To breathe and to look inside again, and see what is left to be discovered. And there is always so much.
So there we were. At Kopan Monastery living, eating, and meditatiting with all the other students, and hundreds of Tibetan monks while taking a Discovering Buddhism Course. What a wild, deep, and meaningful experience.
At times it was tough... structured religion and dogmatic plausible contractictions. And at other times it was perspective altering and incredibly valuable to our own spirituality. Just like anything in life, we took what we needed from this wonderful experience of monk life. We discovered the fundamentals of Tibetan Buddhism that placed a lot of life into a beautiful perspective. We cried, we laughed, we were challenged, and we overcame it everything that was brought forward to learn a little bit more of what our Boho Beautiful life is all about.

One of the best things you can do in Nepal is stay near Boudhanath, the sacred stupa of Tibetan Buddhism and get yourself over to Kopan Monastery.
Eventually you will learn how to walk to the stupa up hill and over dale from Kopan Monastery because rememebr there is no internet in the monastery as the monks are supposed to be meditating and cooking - and they usually are.
Kopan is special as it was started decades ago to help both monks and foreigners learn Tibetan Buddhism and practice. My favorite place?
The library.
Little known fact, Kopan has the best collection of spiritual books in the world, you can hang out there and read all you want or if you are staying at Kopan, you can check out a few books and take them to your room.
Kopan has a generator so you almost always get electricity even when the rest of Kathmandu doesn't.
I love it here! Don't miss it. It is a wonderful place to feel yourself levitating into the sky and you don't even have to be Buddhist. You become serene here. check it out.

Kopan Monastery: One Month Lam Rim Meditation Course 2014
I took the One Month Lam Rim Meditation Course (also known as the November Course) at Kopan Monastery in Kathmandu, Nepal in 2014. This is my video journal.
Lama Zopa Rinpoche arrived on Thanksgiving Day and taught daily until the course concluded on December 11, 2014 with a Long Life Puja for Lama Zopa Rinpoche. Tenzin Phuntsok Rinpoche (the young reincarnation of Kopan Monastery's Geshe Lama Konchog) and Geshe Tenzin Zopa attended the Long Life Puja.
