Foundation Programs at Kadampa Centers around the world
Nov 15, 2024
A fortunate group of Kadampas enjoyed a journey to Keajra Pure Land during June and July at KMC Spain. It was so blessed that even those helping to run the retreat experienced their minds transforming – an inner experience that shone, inspired and guided. Between red skies, exquisite sunrises, and refreshing breeze, Vajrayogini’s mind was present in every corner of the center.
