Under the spiritual patronage of Khensur Rinpoche Geshe Tashi Tsering, TKSL is a school of Buddhist Science with an emphasis on philosophical teachings relating to the nature and workings of consciousness/cognition; the way things exist; and the difference between how they exist and how they appear to us.
The purpose and benefit of the study is to help us understand how our minds work so that we can bring them under our control and thereby lead happier lives.
