Working with Karma to create happiness and overcome obstacles. Many people feel that what goes around, comes around – We reap what we sow”. The Buddha’s teachings show how that works out in practise.
Geshe Graham explains the skilful and helpful teachings on Karma in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.

moved to Dharamsala, India. He was ordained as a Buddhist monk by His Holiness the Dalai Lama in 1991. He studied Buddhist philosophy and
debate at the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics and received his geshe degree from Drepung Loseling Monastery in 2006. He returned home to
England in 2009 in order to look after his parents. Now global warming is coming he is looking forward to teaching in more northerly
countries.
