|introbuddhism=I started studying Mahayana Buddhism in 2014 with an instructor from Lama Padma Samten's sangha in Brazil. It was an informal study group (Grupo de Estudos Budistas Bodhisattva) focused on the 4 Noble Truths, 12 links of dependent origination, mind training, 4 Immeasurable Qualities and 6 Paramitas. By then I hadn't taken refuge yet. In 2019, I started studying Buddhism in a more traditional set and with a clear lineage with Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche and his instructors from Siddhartha's Intent.

|ngondronotes=I did the Longchen Nyingtik ngondro through Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche's online program called Ngondro Gar; there, Rinpoche asked us to count hours instead of number accumulation. Nevertheless, for the Vajra Guru mantra after completing the hours I kept acummulating also in number until 1.200.000.
During the Sphere of Refined Gold retreat in 2025, we did the Thukdrub Barche Kunsel concise ngondro for 10 days.
In May 2025 I started the 5 times 110,000 accumulations of Tara Zabtik Drolma ngondro under the guidance of Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche, through the Tara’s Triple Excellence program.
