Celebrating Turning the Wheel of Dharma Day and the Birthday of our Spiritual Guide
Jun 4, 2026
Recently, on Freedom Day in South Africa, Kadampa Meditation Center Durban hosted a Walk for World Peace event. The day began with serene meditations on loving kindness and inner freedom, followed by a wonderful nature walk and then delicious vegeterian burgers with new friends.
" We got a taste of how world peace is possible..."
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.
