Kadampa Meditation Center Vancouver hosted a public talk last night called Finding Peace: Meditation, Inner Health & Happiness. Gen Rigpa led a packed house to think about our inner health as much as we normally think about our physical health.
The three main centers in Texas – Austin, Houston, and Dallas had their first annual away retreat on the Guru Yoga of Je Tsongkhapa.
We have laid the foundation for Mahamudra meditation by deepening our experience of Lamrim and Lojong. Gen Rigpa has skillfully laid out the entire path to enlightenment meditations in such a powerful and concise way. KMC New York has become a retreat bubble, where even visitors feel peace and tranquility from the environment and retreaters.
This weekend two feet of snow fell overnight at the International Kadampa Retreat Center Grand Canyon making for a beautiful morning at the temple during the start of their Lamrim week.
This weekend the IKRC Grand Canyon started its sixth annual six-week Mountain Retreat. Saturday morning began with 90 people from 7 countries and all across the USA joining together in the Blessing Empowerment of Buddha Manjushri.
Over a hundred people gathered at Kadampa Meditation Center Tampa Bay to prepare for the new year with Kadam Morten.
