An absolutely wonderful place full of some of the best people on the planet. From the monks to the staff, everyone is a pure delight to be around. Plus, the natural beauty of the area and the peacefulness of the monastery makes being there an incredibly enjoyable experience.

The best source of authentic and accessible Tibetan Buddhist dharma in the west. Teachers staff and studebrs are friendly helofil abd kibd. Great for new dharma students, or if you're jyst curious, there are weekend tours, normally you can stop by anytime (daytime hours). Also a ton of online resources!

KTD is a beautiful spiritual retreat, and I was fortunate to be able to attend the Long Life Puja for Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche and celebrate HH the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa's Birthday celebration. Thank you, This blessed event was heartwarming and inspirational. Thank you to everyone at KTD for your warm reception. Especially Khenpo Karma Tenkyong, Lama Karma Thendup, Lama Karma Drodul, Lama Karma Jinpa, Emily-the shrine keeper and the Lama seated next to me that was so thoughtful to share his text ?? Pls forgive me for anyone that I missed, and pls know that I am grateful for everyone at the monastery.

As student of Tibetan Buddhism many years ago, I helped on weekends in the building of parts of the monastery. Now , many years later it is a pleasure to know that the dreams & aspirations of so many people have come to fruition. Many thanks to all who worked to make this happen.

Just left meditation training retreat at KTD Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Woodstock. A surprisingly integrated and grounded experience for someone with very little exposure to the Buddhist world and feels like a real step forward from the path of experience so far of mindfullness and one which takes me further. So much more practical and intuitively ‘spot on’ than I expected. Made so much better by the warmth and humour of teacher Khenpo Karma Tenkyong and the open and welcoming nature of the other participants. The food was good too:)

Prostrate to H.H. 17th Karmapa with much thanks and appreciation for all the precious teaching His Holiness is the embodiment of the great compassionate buddhisattva Chenrezig May I request His Holiness to stay with longevity to turn the wheel of dharma for the sake all sentient beings and liberate from the samsaric cyclic existence ~ Karma Phuntsog Drolma (K.K.D.S KL

Karmapa Chenno - a reincarnated spiritual leader of the present & future times with great wisdom & compassion who teaches dharma for the benefits of sentient being. Seeing His Holiness is as seeing a living buddha.
