The Yogi Tsoru Dechen Rinpoche Foundation was created to provide Westerners access to the Buddha Dharma (Path of Awakening), and to supply Compassion and Wisdom to all human beings. The founder and spiritual leader of YTDR Foundation is Tulku Tsori Rinpoche, who is recognized as a Lama - a term reserved for senior members of the Tibetan Order.
YTDR manages several charitable programs which directly benefit the people of Tibet and help ensure the survival of their culture. The Foundation’s ultimate vision is to have Dharma Centers established throughout the world devoted to cultivating wisdom and compassion for all beings. With centers already established in North and South America, these centers will sustain the teachings and unique lineage of Tibetan Buddhism that was nearly extinguished in the political upheavals of the 20th century, and which have been re-established while still in exile.
YTDR Foundation is a volunteer based organization, and is a registered Florida Charitable Entity EIN 30-0458849 that has applied for Federal Non-Profit Status.
