The history, inspiration and compassionate purpose of the Chenrezig Project.
The Chenrezig Project developed as a welcoming Tibetan Buddhist study and practice community. The name honors Chenrezig, associated with the ideal of profound compassion in the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
Its work has emphasized a practical engagement with the Dharma: family relationships, working life, service, aging and the ordinary challenges that offer opportunities to cultivate awareness.
Mark Winwood is identified in historical community sources as the project’s founder and Dharma teacher. The group has offered teachings, contemplative gatherings and online discussions across different periods of its history.
Historical descriptions place its activities in both Florida and Washington State. Those listings may not reflect current meeting locations or contact details.
