Welcome to Pure Land Farms, centers for Tibetan medicine, meditation and rejuvenation.

In the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, a Pure Land (དག་པའི་ཞིང་) is a sacred realm created through the enlightened intention of a Buddha. ཾPure Land Farms is named after the Medicine Buddha's Pure Land, called Tanaduk (ལྟ་ན་སྡུག), meaning ‘beautiful to behold’ envisioned as a perfect botanical paradise where healing and awakening naturally unfold.

In the Gyuzhi, the traditional Tibetan medical root texts, Tanaduk is introduced in the context of the Five Perfections:


PERFECT PLACE 

A botanical garden where healing plants, minerals, and beneficial creatures coexist in harmony


PERFECT TEACHER 

The Medicine Buddha, a universal healer whose wisdom transcends time and cultural boundaries


PERFECT STUDENTS

Those who receive the teachings of the Medicine Buddha and translate them into their own languages and cultures for the benefit of self and other


PERFECT SUBJECT

Sowa Rigpa གསོ་བ་རིག་པ་, the science of healing and nourishment of awareness


PERFECT TIME

The timeless present moment where healing and transformation naturally occur
