Adele Tomlin is a Buddhist translator-scholar, writer, poet, practitioner, and teacher from the United Kingdom.[1][2] Originally trained as a barrister, she left the legal profession and went on to graduate from the study of Philosophy at Kings College, University of London. Since meeting and taking Buddhist vows with her main Tibetan Buddhist teacher H.H. 17th Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje,[3] on her first visit to India to train as a yoga teacher in 2005, she then spent several years studying Tibetan language and Buddhist Philosophy and receiving teachings and empowerments with several Tibetan Buddhist masters in India, Nepal and Europe.[4] Adele then attained a Master's degree in Tibetology (University of Hamburg, Germany).[5][6]

Adele translated and authored Taranatha's Commentary on the Heart Sutra(LTWA,2017), a Zhentong commentary on the classic Prajnaparamita text.[7][8] Her second book was an introduction and translation of The Chariot that Transports to the Four Kayas by Bamda Gelek Gyatso(LTWA,2019).[9][10] , which is a text in the Kalachakra tradition covering the practice of the common preliminaries. She has also been featured as a Buddhist teacher and writer in Tricycle Buddhist Magazine and has written articles for Buddhistdoor Global, The Diplomat, and other independent publications.Topics she has covered include women in Buddhism, art, aesthetics, emptiness, Buddha-nature, and vegetarianism.

Adele also created the first female-founded (and sole-authored) Buddhist translations and research website, Dakini Translations[11] and Publications, which is focused primarily on Tibetan Buddhism and Vajrayana.[1]
