Nagarjuna's Intention at KMC New York
The Nagarjuna’s Middle Way silent retreat at KMC New York with Resident Teacher, Gen Samten Kelsang, brought over 150 people from all over the US and Canada. The silence was a useful tool to help participants take the profound teachings and powerful meditations more deeply into their hearts.
This incredible silent retreat, in the very blessed environment of KMC New York, provided an immersive experience for all who attended. Many participants commented they are leaving feeling very much renewed as they return home and carry this inner transformation in their hearts.
Participants at the KMC New York retreat took advantage of its peaceful surroundings and amenities. The Center's grounds provided a quiet environment for meditation and reflection. Meals were prepared by volunteers and served in the dining hall. The Center offered reading areas and spaces for contemplation, allowing guests to engage in study or personal reflection between sessions.
