"A global pandemic can’t stop us! Every year we host the Australian National Festival, and even though this is a year like no other, the Festival will go on – online.

"In The New Heart of Wisdom, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche says, 'It is said that dependent relationship is the king of all the logical reasonings to establish emptiness that Buddha revealed in the Sutras.' Through understanding dependent relationship we can overcome the causes of suffering we carry in our heart, and in this way find permanent freedom for ourself and others. Everyone is welcome.

"The Festival begins on Friday 1 until Wednesday 6 of January and you will have until the 21 of January to watch the Festival sessions."
