Celebrating Turning the Wheel of Dharma Day and the Birthday of our Spiritual Guide
Jun 4, 2026
KMC Barcelona recently hosted a special event at their retreat center in Montserrat at which Guen Lochani, the Resident Teacher, granted the empowerment of Thousand Armed Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion.
Over 200 people took part, both in-person and online, and as always the shrine was adorned with exquisite offerings.
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.
