Geshe is a wonderful soul and runs a nice temple with a big, beautiful Buddha inside. You can come any time to meditate with the Buddha, Geshe will let you in. There's a decent sized fellowship with about a combined total of 30 online and in real life every Sunday.

Their dedication to both individual well-being and the greater good is truly commendable. 💙🤝🌟 Love You Geshe Phelgye!

A Beautiful Traditional Buddhist Temple in Spokane Washington. Geshe-La is a real Tibetan Buddhis monk from Tibet!! Such a gem to have in Spokane. Highly recommend for anyone looking to advance on their spiritual journey.

I have studied with Geshela Phelgye since shortly after he moved here nearly 10 years ago! I am incredibly grateful to have crossed paths with him, and for the compassion and wisdom he is always so generously willing to share. Geshela is a great teacher, mentor, and friend, and his teachings are always filled with wisdom, heart, and humor. A great place to learn and study authentic Buddhist teachings in a supportive community of people!
