Since 1972, Lama Ole Nydahl has been traveling tirelessly and teaching thousands of students from all cultures and backgrounds. Many of his students have now also gained the necessary knowledge and experience of the Buddhist teachings (in addition to having an exciting and well-rounded life in the modern world) to share in the work of teaching at different Diamond Way groups and centers around the globe. They also teach at public events in the community and on elementary, high school, and university campuses as guest speakers.

These "traveling teachers" come from all walks of life, different colors, shapes, sizes, and professions. Though different in appearance and style, they are all very gifted and inspiring teachers, not only for Buddhist students but also for all people looking to lead healthier and happier lives. Throughout the year the Diamond Way Buddhist Centers host these teachers for lecture tours and extended courses worldwide.
