She has been resident teacher at Amitabha Buddhist Centre in Singapore and at Dharma Friendship Foundation in Seattle. Active in interfaith dialogue, she also does Dharma outreach in prisons and teaches the Dharma worldwide. She is abbess of Sravasti Abbey, a Buddhist monastery in eastern Washington State. She is the author of several books, including Open Heart, Clear Mind; Buddhism for Beginners; Taming the Mind; Working with Anger; and How to Free Your Mind: Tara the Liberator. Ven.

"Venerable Thubten Chodron is someone whose life embodies the virtues of kindness, simplicity and clarity of vision, which lie at the heart of the Buddha's teaching. It is these perrenial qualities that shine through her writings and touch the hearts of many readers all over the world."--Thupten Jinpa, author and translator for the Dalai Lama

5.0 out of 5 stars Thubten Chodron--my kind of teacher, June 4, 2001

This review is from: Taming the Monkey Mind (Paperback)
....Great advice from a great, warm teacher--I wish I could meet her in person, I would beg to become her student!

But this book is the next best thing. As with all of her books, it's no-nonsense yet a great pleasure to read. It has helped me immeasurably with taming my monkey mind.
