Kathryn Ehrhorn
Venerable Kading

Kathryn Ehrhorn is a fully ordained nun in the Diamond Mountain lineage. Prior to that, while raising two sons, she worked as an entrepreneur to build economic viability in small rural communities around the world. During her 19 years of study with Geshe Michael, she completed the 18 ACI Foundation Courses; seven Diamond Cutter Institute (DCI) courses; six Yoga Studies Institute (YSI) courses; and other coursework offered by Geshe Michael.

She is one of the original founders of Diamond Mountain and worked hard for years to build it into the beautiful retreat center it has become today. After completing the Great Three-Year Retreat at Diamond Mountain in 2014, she spent four years in Sedona, Arizona, supporting her aging mother while helping and working with Geshe Michael’s organizations there. Since then, she has returned to Diamond Mountain where she lives and works as a full-time spiritual caretaker.
