A Spiritual Weekend in South America
Dec 12, 2024
It is a measure of the breadth of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche’s vision and the sophistication of the International Kadampa Buddhist Union he has created that we can listen to teachings given in one location, join in meditations guided at another and finish with a retreat led at yet another.
Tomorrow, Monday July 20, visitors will again be welcomed to the Temple, Cafe, Shop and grounds. After being closed to the public for months due to the covid-19 outbreak, Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre is now beginning to re-open.
Watch this amazing video invitation from the Colombian Sangha to take part in Summer Festival 2020 Online and be inspired.
Five months, and two precious books after they arrived at Manjushri KMC for the Intensive Teacher Training Program with Gen-la Khyenrab, 32 people from 12 different countries today completed their last class in the Temple.
A fortunate group of Kadampas enjoyed a journey to Keajra Pure Land during June and July at KMC Spain. It was so blessed that even those helping to run the retreat experienced their minds transforming – an inner experience that shone, inspired and guided. Between red skies, exquisite sunrises, and refreshing breeze, Vajrayogini’s mind was present in every corner of the center.
Experience this year’s Summer Festival in the exquisite surroundings of Nagarjuna Centre at the beautiful Thornby Hall. Quiet, safe and restful conditions to watch the Festival online and meditate in peace.
With financial assistance from the International Temples project, KMC Austria was able to acquire a commercial property in Vienna. Great progress is being made converting the property in readiness for an opening in the Fall.
Because there are so many wonderful sessions at the Festival (54 in all) and because as lockdown comes to an end many people now have less time, we have extended the time the sessions will remain available online until midnight UK time August.25.
Enjoy a summer getaway near Berlin in the peaceful surroundings of Brandenburg with its many lakes. Stay at beautiful Tharpaland KMC with access to many spiritual facilities including the stunning meditation room, healthy vegetarian food and a harmonious, supportive community.
