Day 10 ~ Vajrayogini Empowerment
Aug 3, 2026
Three times a year, the International Festivals of the NKT-IKBU bring together practitioners from around the world. This fall, people will gather at the International Kadampa Retreat Center Grand Canyon — the fifth Kadampa Temple for World Peace — an expression of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche’s extraordinary vision to benefit modern society.
IN THE TEMPLE AND SHRINE
In the Temple, the perfect space is being created for all of us to receive the teachings and enjoy listening to Dharma in our own language.
The Temple has been completely transformed overnight in preparation for the Highest Yoga Tantra empowerment of Vajrayogini. A stunning, newly created metal statue of Vajrayogini rises majestically from within the empowerment shrine.
