Working toward a harmonious, joyful, and awakened world by supporting people and projects that preserve and promote Buddha’s wisdom.
Since 2001, Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche and a team of volunteers have been committed to providing funding for individuals and organizations seeking to make the dharma available to the world.
Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche is Khyentse Foundation’s founder, chair and anchor. Rinpoche serves as the inspiration and glue for the foundation.
We offer broad nonsectarian support for Buddhist institutions, individual students and practitioners, translators, and others through our scholarships, grants, and award opportunities.
Continuing our series “Bodhi Seeds,” we asked representatives from education programs and schools that Khyentse Foundation supports to respond to quotes by Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche about education. Our fifth issue features Dzongsar Kanishka School in Chauntra, Himachal Pradesh, India.
Khyentse Foundation is a global and nonsectarian Buddhist organization with volunteers, patrons, and grant recipients from all over of the world. With local representatives in 15 different places and donors from more than 50 countries and regions, we aspire to reach all corners of the globe with our support.
Since June of 2021, Khyentse Foundation regularly features lectures delivered by foremost Buddhist Studies scholars from our partner institutions and universities in Asia, Europe, and North America.
Khyentse Foundation gives four different kinds of awards: Academic Excellence in Buddhist Studies, Prize for Outstanding Translation, Outstanding PhD Dissertation in Buddhist Studies, and The Khyentse Fellowship.
