This new samye.org site was created in March 2000. This Teachings areas will gradually develop into a separate on-line dharma college (www.khenpo.org), with its own resources based upon teachings given by the fine Kagyu masters who have taught at Kagyu Samye Ling. It will also offer links to other major Kagyu organisations. The emphasis of the content will be on quality, following the line always taken in our centres to only present teachings which come from the best authentic masters of our living Kagyu lineage.
