Nonprofit founded in 2009 offering meditation training worldwide through digital courses, live online retreats and a global network of practice communities.
Tergar International is a nonprofit founded in 2009 that makes the ancient wisdom of meditation accessible to the modern world. It offers a complete path of meditation training through digital products, live online retreats and a global network of practice communities. The organisation is led by Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche, a Tibetan Buddhist lama and bestselling author, and its stated mission is to transform hearts and minds while removing cultural and intellectual barriers to meditation.
Its work rests on several technical domains: digital learning platforms, online education delivery, live online retreats and virtual events, self-paced e-learning courses, and coordination of a global community network. The programme range runs from secular meditation courses for people of all levels to Buddhist study courses covering subjects such as the meaning of tantra and the path of the bodhisattva. Guided instruction is delivered both online and in person by qualified guides.
Programs are open to individuals and communities worldwide, addressing both the challenges of modern life and more advanced spiritual study. The organisation describes itself as community-oriented and inclusive, with an emphasis on depth and authenticity in the Buddhist tradition alongside practical application. Further detail on its programmes and history is available at tergar.org.
