Spring Festival 2026 Day 5
May 27, 2026
Across Brazil and South Africa, the Dharma is flourishing through the compassionate activities of our teachers and dedicated communities. New developments, joyful celebrations, and the spread of Venerable Geshe-la’s teachings are bringing peace and inspiration to many. May this growth continue to benefit countless beings.
On Saturday, October 25th, Kadampa centers worldwide held special ‘Offering to the Spiritual Guide’ pujas in honor of Je Tsongkhapa Day. This day celebrates the life and works of the founder of the New Kadampa Lineage.
The conclusion of the 2025 Fall Festival offers us an opportunity to reflect on this truly inspiring event.
Today, October 25th, is Je Tsongkhapa Day. Je Tsongkhapa showed a perfect example of how to build the foundation for the spiritual path, how to progress on that path, and how to complete it.
