Eleven online teachings with illustrious students of Professor Jeffrey Hopkins honoring his uniquely profound impact on the Western Buddhist world and beyond.

Jeffrey Hopkins, Emeritus professor and founder of the famed Tibetan and Buddhist Studies program at the University of Virginia, passed from this life July 1, 2024. His contribution to Buddhism’s spread in the English-speaking world is incalculable. From his days as the English translator for His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, to the publication of his master work, Meditation on Emptiness, to his ingenious addition of Tibetan scholars to his faculty, and through translating, editing, and or writing dozens of popular as well as scholarly books, Jeffrey Hopkins gave his life to a profound study and sharing of Tibetan Buddhist teachings.

In these online Dharma teachings, eleven of professor Hopkins’ illustrious students share their wisdom as they honor their beloved teacher.
