The faculty of the Institute of Consciousness stands as a fundamental pillar of its educational mission. It brings together a remarkable blend of Dharma teachers and professors with strong backgrounds in Buddhism, the humanities, and the sciences.
This diversity of academic and professional profiles enriches the transmission of knowledge with a unique plurality of perspectives, rooted in a deep sense of community and a shared commitment to the Common Good.
Jamyang Dorje Rinpoché (Barcelona, 1951) belongs to the first generation of Western Dharma teachers whose legitimacy to transmit the teachings has been recognized by highly respected figures in the Buddhist tradition. His exceptional training took shape under the direct guidance of eminent masters from the four main Tibetan schools.
He is the founder of the Sakya Tashi Ling Buddhist community and its three monasteries, which serve both as schools of thought and spiritual homes. His approach blends the timeless wisdom of Buddhism with European philosophy and cultural tradition. He is especially valued for his extraordinary ability to make the profound wisdom of the Dharma accessible and understandable.
Beyond his role as a teacher, he is regarded as an extraordinary human being, whose defining quality is the complete coherence between his teachings and his way of life. His students highlight his deep compassion, warmth, and closeness. A true humanist, committed to relieving suffering and guiding others toward a fulfilled life.
His legacy is preserved through a lineage that protects and transmits his vision and line of thought to future generations, with the respect and commitment he himself refers to as an ancestral community.
Kutsab Dorje (Badalona, 1974) was appointed successor to the founder of the Sakya Tashi Ling Buddhist community on March 1, 2011. He has been a disciple of Jamyang Dorje Rinpoche since the age of 14. His path represents a living embodiment of the master-disciple bond, a relationship rooted in unwavering trust and commitment. His understanding of the Dharma has been shaped through privileged daily life and learning alongside his teacher.
As the guardian of Jamyang Dorje Rinpoche’s lineage of thought, Kutsab Dorje ensures the continuity and vitality of this school, bringing his teacher’s deep vision into a clear and practical methodology, expressed in a contemporary Western language.
His intellectual rigor is matched by remarkable warmth and approachability, making him a true guide and point of reference for anyone committed to a path of honest self-discovery. He possesses a sharp analytical mind, which he uses to help students confront their inner contradictions in a direct, incisive, and deeply transformative way.
