Empowering Blessings at KMC Paris & Munich
From time to time when engaging in spiritual practice, we need special blessings that empower us to overcome our inner and outer obstacles and identify with our potential for enlightenment. As part of the spiritual program, Kadampa Centers around the world hold empowerments which can either open the door to a new spiritual practice or give us this special spiritual boost.

KMC Paris | KMC Munich
Avalokiteshvara Empowerment in Paris
Ninety people attended the empowerment of Buddha Avalokiteshvara with Gen Tonpa on 16 March at KMC Paris, a city Temple in the heart of Paris. Héla Marzouk guided the first meditation session, followed by the empowerment and commentary with Gen Tonpa. It was a beautiful day, so blessed with the energy of compassion.
Amitayus Empowerment in Munich
We had a wonderful Amitayus empowerment today at KMC Munich. Thirty people came together from all over Bavaria to receive the blessing of Buddha Amitayus. Gen Khandro guided and inspired us wonderfully to take the essence of our precious human life and use it to attain enlightenment.
