Two wonderful occasions to celebrate! Two centers hosted their official openings: Ganden Ling KMC in Cornwall, and KMC Nottingham, with its new building at Gedling House along with its 30th anniversary celebration.
Over the weekend, there was a variety of vibrant courses held by Kadampa centres throughout the US. The courses taught wisdom and love giving people peace of mind and energy to live a meaningful life.
At the beginning of September, KMC Guadalajara hosted a special meditation event led by Resident Teacher Gen Shima, drawing a large and enthusiastic audience. The event was divided into two parts: a public talk called “Where is Happiness?” and a retreat called “Release from Pain.”
