About Us

Awam Community

The Awam Community founded by H.H. Khenchen Lama Rinpoche is a global network of Tibetan Buddhist practitioners and centers dedicated to studying, practicing and sharing the Dharma within the Nyingma and yogi traditions of Vajrayana Buddhism. In the Awam tradition, the word "Awam" symbolizes the union of wisdom and compassion, two essential qualities on the path to enlightenment.

“A” represents the feminine principle of compassion

“Wam” represents the masculine principle of wisdom
