Lama Ole Nydahl has been traveling and teaching for 36 years, visiting a new center virtually every day. Known for his modern and practical approach, Lama Ole offers teachings that are timeless, yet relevant to our contemporary lifestyle. The transformative methods of Diamond Way Buddhism provide deep understanding into the nature of mind, as well as the world around us. This view provides great stability in an increasingly uncertain world, in which difficult situations may occur at any time.
Lama Ole Nydahl and his wife Hannah began touring Europe in the late sixties. They were the first Western students of H.H. the 16th Gyalwa Karmapa, the spiritual head of the Karma Kagyu Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, who is also considered the king of the yogis of Tibet. Since then, Lama Ole and Hannah have founded more than 560 Diamond Way Meditation Centers in 48 countries around the world.
