What is the Difference of being a Meditation Teacher in Switzerland compared to in Nepal – Lama Pema Wangyal versus Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche

Last Updated on May 16, 2026 by pg@petergamma.org

Lama Pema Wangyal teaches Yoga & Meditation at the Drukpa Center Kollbrunn, Switzerland

Morning Meditation

Midday Yoga

Evening Meditation

No, no, I am only joking. And Lama Pema Wangyal did not yet collaborate with neuroscientists yet.

Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche teaches Meditation in Kathmandu, Nepal

for example, the Monkey Mind Meditation

Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche and the neuroscientist Richard J. Davidson have collaborated for fMRI and EEG brain studies. They have shown that intensive meditation produces extraordinarily strong gamma brainwave synchronization.

So where would you prefer to be a meditation teacher? Would you prefer to be a teacher in Nepal or in Switzerland? Write it in the comments below.

Would you not prefer to be a teacher in Switzerland? No, no, I am only joking. But this is what stroke me today, and these where my first thoughts, when I compared these two teachers from Nepal and Switzerland, when I was looking at their YouTube channels today.
