Testimonials
"One of the reasons I have chosen Naropa is because it has offered the contemplative programs in its curriculum. It is fundamental to me as a Buddhist monk that I acquire knowledge from what I learn, as well as infuse that knowledge with the wisdom from practical application and Naropa has helped me fulfill that through its acutely engaging curriculum and contemplative approach." - Ven Thich Tam Tien - MA 2018
"The first day of school I was surrounded by excited students-students who had a desire to speak about mindfulness, conscious living, and transformation within themselves and the community. I felt I found my tribe. Naropa students bring such a healing essence to the campus. I feel safe, secure, heard, and appreciated by those who surround me at Naropa."-Amanda Coleman, Contemplative Psychology, 2017
"Learning to meditate was a very defining moment for me at Naropa. It's something that has helped my life and mind and how I interact with others. I will always have the tools to give my mind the space it needs to roam."- Joy Watts Visual Arts, 2016
