Mark Stephen visits the Samye Ling Tibetan monastery in Dumfries and Galloway.

Mark Stephen hears the stories of Scotland's distinctive past. He visits the Samye Ling Tibetan monastery in Dumfries and Galloway.

In 1967 two Tibetan refugees who had been studying at Oxford University came to Eskdalemuir in Dumfries and Galloway and established the first Tibetan Monastery in the Western World. Almost 50 years on, tens of thousands of people come to Samye Ling each year for a whole variety of reasons, many to find peace from their busy lives. 

Mark Stephen speaks to Ani Llhamo, a former computer programmer who is now a Buddhist nun at Samye Ling. And Liz who is a practising Buddhist who has been visiting the Centre since the 1970's. He also learns about the modern fascination with mindfulness and how it is connected to many of the techniques used by Buddhists.
