Centro Budista Ganden Shedrub Ling

Centro Budista Ganden Shedrub Ling is a Tibetan Buddhist center located in San Juan, Puerto Rico (Río Piedras / Caparra Terrace area). It is part of the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism and focuses on study, meditation, and community practice.

The name “Ganden Shedrub Ling” means something like “a place for the study and practice of virtuous teachings,” reflecting its emphasis on learning Buddhist philosophy and applying it through meditation and daily life.

The center offers three main areas of activity:

  • Buddhist teachings (study of Buddhist philosophy and texts)
  • Meditation practice (training the mind in awareness and compassion)
  • Community engagement (group practice, volunteer service, and outreach)

It is open to both Buddhists and non-Buddhists, and visitors are generally welcome to attend activities or introductory sessions.

Overall, it functions as a spiritual and educational space for people interested in Tibetan Buddhism in Puerto Rico, especially within the broader Vajrayana Buddhist community on the island.
