Rick Jansen

Rick Jansen was born in the Netherlands and lives most of the year in the Sacred Valley in Peru. Rick’s spiritual path began in 2013 in Nepal where he met his first teacher, Lama Zopa Rinpoche. He carries a deep connection to both the Vajrayana teachings of Tibetan Buddhism and the Plum Village tradition. Rick works as a teacher and facilitator in the Gaia Mandala Global Healing Community, and after stewarding an Earth Treasure Vase for Tibet and now for the Andes, he is supporting other ETV stewards in this practice. Rick also assists the School of Lost Borders as a Rites of Passage-Vision Fast guide enacting his own calling to support primarily young adults in finding their authentic path.
