Nordic National Festival with Gen-la Dekyong
Mar 17, 2024
Just over a year ago, at the Spring Festival 2022, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche gave us the gift of the 6th Kadampa World Peace Temple near Malaga in Spain. Now we are gathered together again for our International Fall Festival and it’s such a joy to be back.
Tonight the International Kadampa Fall Festival begins and apart from a few last minute preparations everything is ready to welcome the Festival goers.
The Fall Festival begins tomorrow evening! With over 2300 people from around 40 countries attending in-person and on-line, It has been a wonderful, joyful time preparing for the Festival.
In the year since Spring Festival 2022 was held at KMC Spain the community have been continuing work to improve the environment around the Temple.
Joyful preparations are underway at KMC Spain to make everything ready to welcome hundreds of people for the 2023 International Fall Festival on 6 October
It is over a year since the 6th Kadampa Temple for World Peace was opened by Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong at KMC Spain, Malaga. This video shows what an extraordinary year it has been and just how much has been accomplished.
On the last day of the International Fall Festival there will be a special opportunity to participate in an organised visit to NKT’s new property in Granada. A limited number of coaches will depart from KMC Spain immediately after the final retreat session (see updated Festival programme), for the 2 hour journey to Granada.
Fall Festival 2023 is coming soon and in this video Gen Kelsang Chokga invites everyone to attend the Festival in the beautiful sixth Kadampa temple in Malaga.
We have all settled in to festival life now and the atmosphere is relaxed with a steady rhythm of spiritual practice, volunteer work and spending time with Sangha friends or quietly contemplating the teachings.
It’s the final day of the International Kadampa Summer Festival 2023. Over a thousand practitioners remain to see the very blessed Kadampa play, The Life of Buddha Shakyamuni.
