Wherever the Dharma of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche touches people’s hearts, joy arises naturally. Thank you Venerable Geshe-la.
Kadampa centers around the world will be holding special events over the New Year and of course into the January retreat month. Among these, Heruka KMC in London has invited Gen-la Thubten to give a course over the New Year.
Today, Christmas Eve, we share a beautiful video made by a Kadampa student and a gallery of inspiring photos taken by other Kadampas as an offering to Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. Happy holidays everyone!
Last night, a community of Kadampa students gathered in the Mother Temple at Manjushri KMC for the first in-person puja since March. What a joyful and inspiring event it was!
Over the last few months, Manjushri KMC has been hard at work improving accommodation for visitors to the center, including 13 new and refurbished en-suite rooms in the main building, the Hayloft and the North Quadrangle. These developments and much more make this special place well worth a visit.
Last weekend, Gen Losang granted the blessing empowerment of Dorje Shugden at Tara International Kadampa Retreat Center. This was the center’s first event since becoming an International Retreat Center!
A wonderful new development. Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche has requested the centre to become an International Kadampa Retreat Center. The Resident Teacher, Gen Losang Kelsang, has many years of experience leading retreats. Stand by for more information.
During the 2020 Online International Fall Festival there are opportunities at some Kadampa Centers to take part with other Kadampas, watching on a large screen and staying in center accommodation with the meditation room, accommodation and meals all arranged according to official Covid-19 guidelines. Here are a few examples
At a difficult time for so many people, through the extraordinary compassion of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, more and more meditation centers are appearing to fulfil the needs and wishes of the people of this world.
On Monday, the new building for KMC Plymouth officially opened its doors to the public. The building, previously a bank, was acquired last year and during the lockdown period a team of Kadampas worked tirelessly to convert it into a modern Kadampa city Temple.
