The Academy of Mantric Disciplines

Dudjom Ngakdra Labrang

Dudjom Ngakdra Labrang (DML), or The Academy of Mantric Disciplines was given its name by one of the greatest meditation masters of our time, the Lord of Refuge, H.H. Chatral Sangye Dorje Rinpoche.

Located in Poughkeepsie, NY, DML serves our community as a meditation center, a place of residence, and as the administrative heart of the Bodhivastu Foundation.

The center offers practices in various forms of mind training and special teaching events throughout the year.
