About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Renate Marx, originally from Germany, has long moved between countries and traditions, dedicating her life to both education and the Dharma, rooted in experiential and interdisciplinary learning.
For over twenty years, Renate worked in Germany as a manager and program developer at the intersection of education, intercultural dialogue, and the arts. In 2010, her path turned more deeply toward the Dharma when she began her studies within the Nyingma tradition. After completing the Four-Month Human Development Retreat at the Nyingma Institute in Berkeley, she joined the Nyingma community and became a full-time volunteer within Nyingma organizations in both the U.S. and Germany.
From 2015 to 2026, Renate spent part of each year in India, serving as an administrator and program coordinator at the Sarnath International Nyingma Institute (SINI) and is now with Ratna Ling full time. A committed Dharma worker, Renate continues to develop her roles as a student, facilitator, and organizer, drawing from her background in education and Dharma practice.
