About Dechen London
The Dechen Sakya centre in London was established by Lama Jampa Thaye in 2006 and given the name Sakya Dechen Ling, which means, ‘The place of great bliss of the Sakyas’.
The Centre transmits the traditional meditation and Buddhist teachings of the 900 year old Sakya lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. This is facilitated by hosting teachings by masters of the tradition and by running classes led by experienced Buddhists.
