Dedicated volunteers from various parts of Brazil and the world are already working tirelessly on essential tasks to prepare the site for the International Fall Festival (October 25th to November 1st), where we expect to welcome around 2,500 participants.
The International Fall Festival is just two weeks away! Here is some practical information to answer some common questions and to help you prepare for your trip.
The 2024 Fall Festival in Brazil is just 4 weeks away. For Kadampas in Brazil the anticipation is building and they are looking forward to welcoming the international Kadampa community to the Temple at KMC Brazil.
The Gateway to the Highest Yoga Tantra is open to all, at the NKT-IKBU INTERNATIONAL FALL FESTIVAL 2024 to be held at the Third Kadampa World Peace Temple.
The conclusion of the 2024 Summer Festival offers us an opportunity to reflect on this truly inspiring event.
The Temple is once again full for a final morning of heartfelt prayers, requests and dedications as we engage in an extremely auspicious practice of Offering to the Spiritual Guide. It is a beautiful and fitting conclusion to what has been an extraordinary Festival.
It’s the last full day of the Festival and we conclude with three more sessions of retreat, keeping our minds in such a blessed and peaceful state and looking forward to the play of The Life of Buddha.The Temple is packed and it’s an incredible atmosphere, as the lights go down and we are all together watching this special, holy play on a giant screen.
The peace of the Festival is indescribable. It feels so powerful to meditate as a great assembly of practitioners at the culmination of this Festival. Step by step, session by session, we have the experience of collectively holding our minds on pure objects. The Kadampa Temple becomes so quiet, even though we are a huge assembly of people. It is harmonious on a deep, subtle, heart level as we meditate together for long periods of time in silence.
We begin three days of retreat meditating according to Venerable Geshe-la’s advice in the beautiful, holy space of the Temple. Kadam Morten guides everyone step by step, letting the retreat go gradually deeper. He encourages us to be light and joyful and to practice on the basis of faith, in a relaxed way, with confidence.
The final day of teachings focused on many important things and completed the transmission of the sublime practice of the Uncommon Yoga of Inconceivability. Included within this beautiful, transcendent practice are so many practical teachings.
