Abstract [en]

In 1976, following his teacher’s command, Lama Ngawang (1927-2011) moved to Sweden to oversee a newly founded Buddhist Center. Coming from a Tibetan nomadic background, with little exposure of Western culture, this was quite a challenge. Lama Ngawang’s contribution to the dissemination of Buddhism in Sweden will be explored in this presentation.
