City of Light Church

The City of Light Church & The Monastery of the Cosmic Christ are one of the first formal Christian-Buddhist foundations that have been starting to organize across the world.

Not bound by monastery walls, each monastic member, or the "sangha", live and work autonomously under the City of Light Church Foundation. This monastic community is re-defining western Buddhism and the monastic religious life.

The City of Light Church and the Monastery of the Cosmic Christ was founded to take the pioneering work of inter-religious dialogue to the next phase by establishing a true marriage of East and West via the creation of a Christ-based spiritual community with a Tibetan Buddhist expression of monasticism.

They acknowledge Jesus Christ as their founder and root guru. Their members and monastic candidates engage in studies ranging from Vajrayana Buddhism and Dzogchen Meditation to modern Christian Theology.
