The air of anticipation is palpable as IKRC gears up for the 2019 Fall Festival. In just three days time Gen-la Dekyong will open the fifth Kadampa Temple for World Peace and the Festival will begin.
All over the site volunteers are working hard putting the final touches to the preparations. Ready to welcome over 3,000 people to this amazing place for an extraordinary event.
If you have not already booked there is still time to do so, see https://kadampafestivals.org/fall-2019.
June 4 is the Turning the Wheel of Dharma Day on which we celebrate Buddha’s first teaching in this world - the first Turning of the Wheel of Dharma. It is also the birthday of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, the Founder of NKT.
