The Inner Tantra teachings and practice style of the gö-kar-chang-lo'i-dé (or the White Sangha) is particularly relevant to people trying to integrate 'Tibetan' Buddhism with 'normal' family life in the modern world. Yet it requires no less commitment from its practitioners, who are known as ngakpas (snags pa, men) and ngakmos (sngags mo, women), than monastic samayas.  Sadly the Tradition is neither widely known nor easily accessible outside the Himalayan region even though some of the best known Buddhist masters were in fact ngakpas including HH Dudjom Rinpoche and HH Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.  

This is a meeting place for anyone trying to make contact with the Tradition or just to find out more about it.

It is also where people already practising within the Tradition can let others know about their sangha and how to make contact.

If you are already practising within this tradition tell the world about your Lineage, your Lineage Holder, the style of practice and how to contact and advertise your planned events free.
