During late September 2020, Boston College Professor of Buddhism John Makransky taught a multi-day workshop titled “We Are Already Held in the Qualities We Seek: An Introduction to Innate Compassion Training” at the Rangjung Yeshe Institute (RYI.org) in Kathmandu, Nepal.

RYI was founded by Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche, one of Prof. Makransky’s root teachers, as an institution of higher learning for people wishing to deepen their understanding of Buddhist philosophy and practice.
