Diamond Way Buddhist Center: Chicago welcomes Lama Ole Nydahl, one of the few Westerners fully qualified as a lama and meditation teacher in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, to the University of Chicago on November 14, 2009 at 8 P.M. Chicago will be Nydah's final stop on his Midwest tour which starts in Minneapolis on November 10th.
According to the wishes of his teacher, H.H. 16th Karmapa, Rangjung Rigpe Dorje, Nydahl has spent more than 30 years bringing the teachings of the Buddha to western students around the globe. An unconventional spiritual guide who enjoys skydiving and fast motorcycles, Nydahl distills the essence of Buddhism and delivers it without cultural trappings in a way that is practical for busy, modern people.
