Gar Drolma Buddhist Center is a Tibetan Buddhist Dharma Center
located in Dayton Ohio. Gar Drolma Buddhist Center was founded in 2002 by
His Eminence Garchen Rinpoche, a high lama in the Drikung Kagyu lineage of Tibetan Buddhism.
Meditation and classes at Gar Drolma are relaxed and informal and everyone should feel welcome to attend - no matter what level of experience you have with meditation or Buddhism. We often have newcomers, and students from throughout the Dayton area and our program is organized to accommodate newcomers. Everyone is welcome at any time - people who may be just curious to learn a little about the Dharma, new practitioners, and those who have more experience.
