Celebrating Turning the Wheel of Dharma Day and the Birthday of our Spiritual Guide
Jun 4, 2026
At the beginning of July for a period of six days Madhyamaka KMC was buzzing with activity, as the latest cohort of robe makers have been honing their sewing skills under the guidance of Kelsang Malaya and Karla.
People from other countries including Spain and Mexico travelled to take part in the course so that they could learn everything necessary to make ordained robes.
Now at KMC Barcelona, a sewing team has been formed with people kindly wanting to help and give their time, for sewing robes. They are continuing with their work, right now, to have everything ready for the Sangha ordaining at the International Summer Festival.
Thank you to everyone who attended, bringing their joy and enthusiasm to Madhyamaka KMC, and learning this precious skill ~ we hope to see you all again soon.
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.
