Ven Jampa Sangmo

Venerable Jampa Sangmo is a Tibetan Buddhist Nun. Her interest in meditation led her to the exploration of Zen, where she studied with Thich Nhat Hanh, and Vipassana, where she did numerous long retreats. She came to Tibetan Buddhism in 1993 and began her studies with several Buddhist Masters including Lama Zopa Rinpoche, Choden Rinpoche, Ribur Rinpoche, and His Holiness the Dalai Lama. In 2008, Venerable Jampa took robes with her teacher Khensur Jampa Tegchok Rinpoche. She has lead meditation groups and retreats for Chevron International, Land of Medicine Buddha, and has co-led retreats at Vajrapani Institute. For the past 4 years she has facilitated an ongoing group with “Woman Care Santa Cruz” to support women who have cancer. She is passionate about teaching meditation and how to incorporate it in everyday life.
