In the Footsteps of the Buddha: A Virtual Pilgrimage with Khensur Thupten Tenzin Rinpoche
Are you curious about Buddhism, the life of the Buddha, or how ancient wisdom can still shape our modern lives? This immersive virtual pilgrimage offers a unique chance to explore these questions while traveling—virtually—through some of the most sacred sites in Buddhist history.
Led by master teacher Khensur Thupten Tenzin Rinpoche, you’ll visit the places where the Buddha’s journey unfolded:
• Lumbini, Nepal — where he was born
• Bodhgaya — where he attained enlightenment
• Varanasi — where he gave his first teachings
• Nalanda — a thriving center of Buddhist learning
• Kushinagar — where he passed into final liberation
Through five pre-recorded video lectures, rich with photos and on-location footage, you’ll learn the story behind each place—its historical and spiritual significance—and receive teachings that connect the Buddha’s journey to your own inner path.
You’ll also get the rare opportunity to connect directly with Khensur Rinpoche during a live Q&A, where you can ask questions and dive deeper into the teachings.
Whether you’re new to Buddhism or looking to deepen your practice, this course offers a powerful way to engage with the living wisdom of the Buddha — rooted in real places, real experiences, and timeless insights that continue to resonate across centuries and cultures.
This online class consists of several recorded lectures and supporting meditations made available on the student portal page, and one live online Q and A with Khensur Rinpoche. You will receive access to the class portal page and videos beginning on August 23. Lectures are offered in Tibetan with translation by Nyima Tsam.
