Karma Trinlay Rinpoche, one of the first Westerners to be recognized as a reincarnate master within Tibetan Buddhism, will be teaching on Shantideva’s 8th century spiritual gem The Way of the Bodhisattva (Bodhicaryavatara) throughout 2013 at Bodhi Path Buddhist Centers throughout North America. One of the most famous and best-loved Buddhist texts, The Way of the Bodhisattva is a guide to developing inner qualities such as compassion, generosity, and wisdom.

Trinlay Rinpoche. Born in France to an American mother and French father, at the age of three Trinlay Rinpoche was recognized as the reincarnation of an important teacher by the 16th Karmapa and began his monastic training with Kalu Rinpoche shortly thereafter. He is one of the first Westerners to have received and completed the traditional Tibetan Buddhist education offered to Tulkus, or reincarnate masters. Rinpoche has also pursued Western academic studies in philosophy, history, and philology. He currently lives in Paris with his wife and their dog and divides his time between studies, teaching, and translating.
