What better way to take the special teachings of the 2019 Fall Festival deeper into your heart than to spend some time at the mother center in profound guided meditation retreat in January 2020? January is a special time at Manjushri KMC when the whole centre enters into retreat mode for four weeks of winter retreat and an extraordinary calm falls upon the environment.
Today we complete our roundup of the post Fall Festival retreats 2019 with photos from an urban retreat at KMC Mexico with Guen Sangden, and rural retreats at Madhyamaka KMC with Gen Tharpa, KMC Phoenix with Kadam Lucy, and KMC Brasil with Gen Togden.
The same is true of the development of the International Temples Project (ITP).
