Glen Svensson

Teacher of Tibetan Buddhism

Glen has been a student and practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism since 1995. He graduated from the seven-year Masters Program in Advanced Buddhist Studies of Sutra and Tantra at Istituto Lama Tzong Khapa (Pomaia, Italy) in 2004. Following this, he completed his studies with an eight-month retreat at Oseling Center in Spain. Originally from Australia, Glen attained a BSc in IT at the University of Queensland. After four years working in Brisbane, he spent the next eight years working and traveling around the world. Having ‘bumped’ into Buddhism during his travels (“I read a book about Buddhism and it seemed so logical and many things resonated extremely well with my innate beliefs”), he attended his first Dharma teaching in Dharamsala, India in 1995. Since 2005 he has taught and led meditation retreats in India, Europe, North America and Australia with a clear and structured teaching style emphasizing the integration of philosophical view, meditation and daily life conduct. He is a close student of Lama Alan Wallace and has served as his co-teacher on several of Lama's eight week retreats.
