Pure Land Farms is named after Tanaduk (Tibetan ལྟ་ན་སྡུག།), the Pure Land of the Medicine Buddha, literally meaning “beautiful to behold.”

We offer small group meditation programs in the Yuthok Nyingthig lineage, the unique spiritual tradition of Tibetan Medicine.

Pure Land Farms is the home of the Sowa Rigpa Institute: School of Tibetan Medicine founded by Dr. Nida Chenagtsang and we offer short practical courses and workshops in the subjects of Tibetan Medicine, herbalism, Buddhism, and rejuvenation connected with our online programming offered through Sowa Rigpa Online

In addition we offer diverse programming in the fields of music, traditional arts and culture through Yangchenma Arts & Music.

In the spirit of Yuthok Yönten Gönpo, the father of Tibetan Medicine and great non-sectarian teacher, we welcome students and practitioners of all lineages!
