She has also completed a rigorous study of the 18 Foundational Buddhist Courses as offered through the Asian Classic Institute, which parallels the basic core of information that a Geshe (Doctor of Theology) learns at Tibetan Buddhist monastery. Supriya has volunteered on the Three Jewels Leadership team since 2018. She is currently Director of Dharma, and oversees production of all Dharma courses. Her motivation is to help others find the discipline and depthless joy of a spiritual practice that delivers extra-ordinary results. She is indebted to Three Jewels for revealing her teachers.
