This is a now page. It’s what I’m currently focused on, updated when things shift.
Studying#
Madhyamaka philosophy at the Dzongsar Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö Institute in Bir, Himachal Pradesh. The current term is on Nāgārjuna’s Mūlamadhyamakakārikā and the major Tibetan commentaries.
Alongside that, I’m an academic researcher affiliated with Savitribai Phule Pune University, on a Khyentse Foundation grant. The project is a comparative reading of classical Tibetan commentarial traditions against contemporary Western scholarship on emptiness.
Building#
Offering Bowl — currently in private beta with several monasteries. The active engineering work is on sponsor onboarding, the payouts pipeline (Stripe Connect across multiple jurisdictions is genuinely fiddly), and the monastery-side dashboard.
Practising#
