ABOUT CYBERSANGHA
CyberSangha is a way to connect with Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche, the ancient Tibetan teachings, and fellow students around the world through regular live broadcasts that can be easily viewed here on cybersangha.net, on Rinpoche’s Facebook page, or on our new CyberSangha community app. All broadcasts are free and open to all.
The name CyberSangha reflects Rinpoche’s deep, personal commitment to offer free access to his teachings for anyone in the world who might benefit from them. Buddhism speaks of Three Jewels: the Buddha; the Dharma, or Buddhist teachings; and the Sangha — the community of meditation practitioners who follow the teachings and put them into practice. In particular, CyberSangha refers to the international online community of individuals who are following Rinpoche’s Facebook Live broadcasts and are seeking nourishment from the mutual support of others.
Rinpoche’s teachings present a doorway to connecting with your best self, a sense of openness, awareness, and warmth that allows you to live to your highest potential. His broadcasts are meant to be accessible to anyone, including those who have never tried meditation, practitioners with years of meditation experience, and those with any or no religious or spiritual affiliation.
Offered regularly since 2009, Rinpoche’s live broadcasts include not only teachings and guided meditations, but also interfaith dialogues, conversations between scientific and spiritual leaders, and Tibetan poetry readings, as well as glimpses of Rinpoche’s life and travels. A worldwide team of volunteers provides simultaneous translation of the Facebook Live broadcasts into multiple languages, and a discussion group on our community app permits exchanges between members of CyberSangha. Recordings of each broadcast are accessible in multiple languages via the CyberSangha archives as well as language-specific YouTube channels.

Our vision, mission and values:
The overriding vision of CyberSangha is to support the creation of a spiritually awakened, connected, and harmonious society.
Our mission is to help individuals access their higher awareness through producing and disseminating highly accessible content grounded in the wisdom teachings of Tibetan Bön Buddhism and other faiths — such as teachings, dialogs, and artistic/musical presentations — and to support individuals in connecting with like-minded others who together can manifest our vision of a better world for all.
The guiding principles of our community inspire and instruct our behaviors toward each other, our communities, and the environment. We are:
- convinced that every living being has the seed of awakened awareness within
- cultivating openness, love, compassion, joy, and even-mindedness in all that we do and extend to others
- in service to the truth at the heart of all the world’s great spiritual traditions
- pursuing our own spiritual development through service to others
- inspired in every way by the teachings of Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche
- warm-hearted, welcoming, and empowering to everyone everywhere
