Gen-la Thubten visits centers in France
After the French National Festival at KMC France in Le Mans, Gen-la Thubten visited three other centers in France.
Emptiness in Paris
First he travelled to Paris, where he gave a public talk on emptiness to almost 200 people, many of them online. It was an evening of much joy and laughter.
Relying on a Spiritual Guide in Montpellier
The next day Gen-la travelled to the beautiful (and much warmer) city of Montpellier in the south of France, where he officially opened KMC Vajrassattva and gave a public talk on relying on a Spiritual Guide to a capacity audience.
Modern day Kadampa practitioners in Toulouse
Finally Gen-la visited the charming city of Toulouse, where he opened KMC Vajrvarahi and gave a public talk on being a Kadampa practitioner in the modern world to a packed meditation room - the first teaching in their wonderful new building.
Warmth, Joy & laughter
Quite a few people travelled to multiple events, some to all four. And at every location there was great warmth, much joy - and plenty of laughter!
