It was truly a dreamlike weekend at KMC Granada. On Sunday, May 10, the community had the great good fortune to welcome Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong, who presided at Offering to the Spiritual Guide prayers.
It was a deeply meaningful and blessed occasion for everyone who attended. With sincere gratitude, the Sangha thanked Gen-la Dekyong for joining them on such a special day.
GEN EUPAME, NATIONAL SPIRITUAL DIRECTOR of FRANCE, VISITED NICE
In May, Gen Kelsang Eupame, National Spiritual Director for France, visited the Kadampa center in Nice, bringing inspiration and encouragement to the local Sangha.
The center was originally established in Cannes in September 2006, when Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche gave it the name Chakrasambara. In the spring of 2008, the center moved to Nice, where it continues to offer Buddha’s teachings and meditation to the local community.
Gen Eupame’s visit was a joyful and meaningful opportunity for practitioners to gather together, receive precious teachings, and deepen their connection with Kadam Dharma.
Eva Pérez from KMC Bilbao visited KMC Alicante
In May, Eva Pérez from KMC Bilbao visited KMC Alicante to share valuable teachings on overcoming fear and anxiety.
During the event, participants learned how strong attachment to happiness, wealth, praise, and reputation can become a source of anxiety and inner discomfort. Through practical Buddhist teachings, they were encouraged to develop a more peaceful and balanced mind.
It was a meaningful and inspiring occasion for everyone who attended. Heartfelt thanks were offered to Eva Pérez and to all those whose kindness and effort made this special visit possible.
