German National Festival in November 2024
Nov 14, 2024

Blessing empowerments of Buddha Vajrapani took place in the last few weeks. Those who attended KMC Metz, KMC Montpellier and Odiyana KMC in Cheshire had a great opportunity to connect with this Deity to strengthen their spiritual power.
We received the transmission of Buddha Vajrapani's blessings last weekend with Gen Kelsang Konchog, Resident Teacher at KMC Metz.
We discovered how to awaken our Buddha nature by relying upon the Buddha of spiritual power, Buddha Vajrapani. We learned how to overcome our fears, waves of anger, the inner demon of jealousy, and even our attachment by stopping seeing enemies in people or situations but rather recognizing that our real enemies are our negative states of mind. Buddha Vajrapani can help us in every moment to eliminate these inner enemies. We also learned the precious practice of the 5 forces.
Around forty people took part in this beautiful event.
Thank you Gen Konchog and thank you Venerable Geshe-la.
During the weekend of 21 and 22 September, we had the great good fortune to receive the blessings of Vajrapani followed by teachings on how to find our inner warrior through the 6 perfections with Kadam Olivier, Resident Teacher at KMC Montpellier.
The weekend was a delightful spiritual booster!!
Last weekend, we received the blessing empowerment of Buddha Vajrapani at Odiyana KMC and some commentary on his prayers. Following the commentary we were fortunate enough to engage in the sadhana The Yoga of Buddha Vajrapani together.
It was a great opportunity to strengthen our power to overcome our inner enemies - our negative attitudes or delusions - and to develop faith in this fiercely compassionate and wise Buddha.
The community were on hand to welcome people, cook and serve food and help with the setup and preparation, showing the power and good example of a Sangha community all working together.
Everyone who attended had a very special and blessed day.
