Aug 8, 2024
Read about some of the other wonderful activities taking place throughout the world the week before the Spring Festival
KMC SAN DIEGO, KMC SLOVENIA, KMC GLASGOW, KMC DEUACHEN
KMC San Diego had its first retreat in Julian CA after 4 years on the topic “The art of Contentment”, guided by Gen Kelsang Rigpa.
A group of very happy meditators from KMC Slovenia just completed our first away retreat in the peaceful Alpine setting of Luče. Led by RTs Kadam Andrew and Božena, the theme of the retreat was "our precious human life" from the perspective of beings of initial, intermediate and great scope. So everyone tried to greatly rejoice - and greatly succeeded!
On Thursday the 25th of May Gen Kelsang Dornying gave an inspirational talk to over 100 people on “Living Positively in a Troubled World”at KMC Glasgow.
Guided tours of the Temple, free meditations, rest, delicious food and sweets, conversation and new friends. This was the Open Day at the Kadampa Meditation Centre Deuachen in Portugal last Saturday.
Visitors also got to see the Bodhi tree, the residents' rooms and ask all their questions about the kadampa way of life.
But the most heard words were "a place of great peace".
