Nestled in our countryside is the impressive Kagyu Samye Ling Monastery and Tibetan Centre, which counted David Bowie and Leonard Cohen among its students
It may surprise you to learn that tucked away in the Scottish countryside is a large Tibetan Buddhist complex.
Two years later, Johnstone House invited "spiritual masters" Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche and Akong Rinpoche to take over the running of the centre. They named it Samye Ling, after the first successful Buddhist establishment in Tibet, and it officially became the first Tibetan Buddhist Centre in the West.
The former was even close to becoming a monk at the monastery, partaking in a vow of silence and carrying out meditation. However, he was reportedly told by a monk at Samye Ling that he should pursue music instead and the rest is history.
