Kadampa Meditation Center Colombia
Center Away Retreat
Stepping Away from The Busyness of Daily Life
The Sangha of KMC Colombia(opens in new tab) organized a peaceful weekend away retreat, called Rest in the Clarity of Your Mind. Held in Choachí, surrounded by beautiful mountains and nature just outside Bogotá, the retreat offered a precious opportunity to step away from the busyness of daily life and turn inward.
The retreat was skilfully guided by Resident Teacher Gen Kelsang Atisha and was based on the instructions of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche on the Mahamudra meditations on the root mind. Through contemplation and meditation, the retreat gave everyone the opportunity to explore the clarity and peace that are naturally present within the mind.
It was a meaningful weekend to pause, quiet the mind and reconnect with this inner source of peace, returning home with a deeper appreciation of the stillness and clarity that can be found within.

11 Yogas of Vajrayogini
A Profound and Inspiring Course
At KMC Campinas(opens in new tab), our Resident Teacher, Gen Kelsang Janglam, recently gave a profound and inspiring course on the 11 Yogas of Vajrayogini.
In three powerful sessions, students had the precious opportunity to explore the practical and scientific method of Highest Yoga Tantra — discovering how transforming our ordinary daily experiences can become part of the path to enlightenment. Through the practice of Vajrayogini, we learn to transform our experiences, purify our mind, and gradually reveal our purest spiritual nature.
It was truly a sublime and uplifting gathering, and we were delighted to see so many people coming together with a sincere wish to discover and realize their purest spiritual potential.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to making these three sessions so meaningful and special. May the inspiration from this course continue to benefit everyone who attended!
