Welcome to the Gelugpa Vajrayana Buddhist Association of Malaysia!

The GVBAM was established in 2008 to uphold the Gelug lineage in Malaysia. We hope to be able to provide information and support to all Gelugpa Buddhist practitioners, associations and centres in Malaysia and the region.

As we are only one of the many sacred schools of Buddhism in the world, GVBAM also strives to foster greater inter-religious harmony and understanding between all religious traditions and faiths.

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, is both the head of state and the spiritual leader of Tibet. He strives continuously to advocate inter-religious understanding, world peace and harmony.

The Gaden Tripa is the supreme head of the Gelugpa Buddhist tradition worldwide, representing Lama Tsongkhapa on earth. This highly esteemed position stretches back in an unbroken lineage to Lama Tsongkhapa himself.

 Gaden Monastery was originally founded by Lama Tsongkhapa around 600 years ago in Tibet. Today, it is situated in southern India. Gaden Monastery consists of Shartse and Jangtse colleges.
