Read about some other recent activities organized by Kadampa centers around the world.
Creating the causes for world peace at KMC Barcelona
More than 300 people gathered at KMC Barcelona, to begin the year with a meditation course guided by our Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Lochani.
Starting the year together in this way - with open minds and a sincere wish for peace - filled us with joy and gratitude!
Everyone who attended, meditated, and listened with an open heart contributed to something much greater:
bringing many people together with a vision of World Peace, beginning with inner peace.
WINTER RETREAT on THE YOGA OF BUDDHA HERUKA
From January 7th to 11th, KMC Granada organized a winter retreat in Moclín with the sadhana The Yoga of Buddha Heruka. We were able to meditate on this practice, which contains the essential instructions of Heruka Body Mandala, and deeply enjoy such a powerful and transformative practice.
Our sincere thanks to everyone who participated and made it possible, and especially to our kind Spiritual Guide for offering us such extraordinary and meaningful instructions.
The bliss of perfect freedom at KMC Manchester
In January, the community at KMC Manchester enjoyed a wonderful day course with visiting Teacher Gen Kelsang Tilopa, the Resident Teacher of KMC Liverpool. We received inspiring and powerful teachings on how to develop pure renunciation. Thank you to Gen Tilopa and to everyone who attended this amazing event. It was lovely to see our center so full, with so many people receiving such inspiring teachings.
Vajrayogini DAy at KMC Rio
The 10th of January, Vajrayogini Day, was a truly blessed day at KMC Rio. We welcomed people from various parts of Brazil for a full day of prayers. In the morning, we did Vajrayogini self-initiation, Heart Jewel in the afternoon, and Offering to the Spiritual Guide in the evening.
Thus, we ended the day filled with the blessings of all the Buddhas and with our hearts overflowing with joy! There was no better way to start 2026.
WE WARMLY WELCOME OUR NEW RESIDENT TEACHER, gen KELSANG YESHE!
We are very happy to welcome our new Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Yeshe, and to help Dharma flourish in Chile and throughout the world.
In her first course at KMC Chile, we received teachings on how to approach the new year with three essentials: wisdom to maintain and improve the quality of our peace of mind; confidence in the methods taught by Buddha and in our potential to put them into practice and achieve results; and determination to improve our minds for our own benefit and that of others.
Thank you, Geshe-la!
