Tibetan Buddhism in Our Lives
Expand your Wisdom and Refine your Consciousness through Buddhist Practice
At the Mayum Mountain Foundation, we aspire to be a spiritual home for those who want to integrate the practice and study of Buddhism into their lives. Our focus is on the path of personal transformation of the Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism. Everyone is welcome to come to our Sunday programs to meditate with us.
Mayum is a respectful word for mother in the Tibetan language. The 'mother' is our hidden ability to find the open and free aspect of our minds, allowing limitless love and compassion to come forth. The 'mountain' is stability in that. Practice is how we find Mayum Mountain.
We are a tax-exempt non-profit Buddhist church.

About Loppon Yudron Wangmo
Founder and Director
Yudron Wangmo began studying and practicing Tibetan Buddhism in the early 1990's, balancing in-depth practice and service to her Tibetan teachers with her work as a nurse, nurse practitioner, and healer.
Later, she completed lengthy meditation retreats, including the traditional three-year three-month group retreat in California under the guidance of Lama Tharchin Rinpoche. Her main mentors have been Lama Tharchin Rinpoche, Lama Pema Dorje Rinpoche, and Adzom Paylo Rinpoche.
Lama Pema Dorje Rinpoche officially authorized her to teach in 2017. In 2020, Ngakpa Karma Lhundup Rinpoche asked her to teach Vajrayana gradually, starting with the Heart Essence of Dakini, a treasure of Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche, later Throma Nakmo, and always Guru Rinpoche.
