"Path to Geshe"
Geshe is a Tibetan word meaning ‘virtuous friend’. Geshe is also the title earned by one who has completed the roughly 20-year course of study at Sera-Jey Monastic University. Filmed at Sera Jey in South India, “Path to Geshe” immerses you in the color-rich world of a Tibetan monastery, a world of unexpected laughter and joyous effort set against the rigors of monastic study and intense dedication to the Buddha Dharma. Resonating with the profound sounds of devotion and filled with beautiful iconic imagery “Path to Geshe” will carry you the heart of Tibetan Culture and wellspring of the Buddha Dharma.
"Although the bulk "Path to Geshe" was shot over two trips to Sera in south India beginning in 2008 my personal journey to this wondrous place began with my first visit in 1993. Each visit since then has been like a home coming for a long lost brother. Living with the monks of Sera, who have become family to me, has been an amazing experience, I am honored to share the story of life at this amazing place with you."
-William Judge

I am very excited about the contribution Joseph Patrick Moore has made to "Path to Geshe". He truly understood the film and what I was looking for and the produced music far beyond my expectations. Please be sure to visit his site to find out more about this incredible musician. Thank You Joseph!

Mandala Magazine Review
Path to Geshe
By William C. Judge
Perhaps Path to Geshe‘s greatest strength is that is allows the audience to see and hear the vibrancy of Sera Je Monastic University, one of the three great Tibetan Buddhist monasteries in exile and the source of many of the greatest Tibetan teachers of today – a rare treat for many of us unable to make the long trip to India. Filled with intimate footage, moving stills and a powerful original score by Joseph Patrick Moore, Path to Geshe is an entertaining introduction into the lives of the devoted monks who spends up to 25 years mastering revered Buddhist texts before taking teaching and leadership roles in their communities.
(People with an affinity for social service projects that support Sera Je Monastic University, such as FPMT’s Sera Je Food Fund and The Geshe Tsulga Non-profit Corporation, can certainly make creative use of this documentary to bring this important (but distant!) institution to life for potential supporters. It’s short, educational, and contains beautiful images – highly recommended!)

Each moment of Venerable Geshe Tsulga's life was dedicated to the Dharma. His kindness and compassion affected all who met him. Here is an opportunity to join Geshe-La on typical day, to see first hand how he lived each moment for others. Discover how this humble man, born a nomad on the high plains of Tibet, fled the Chinese invasion and occupation of his homeland to live in exile in India and play an important role in the rebuilding of Sera Monastic University and then land up as the resident teacher for the Kurukulla Center just outside of Boston.
