Kadam Dharma in UK

This weekend Kadam John McBretney, Resident Teacher at Heruka KMC in north London, granted the empowerment and commentary of the Great Mother Prajnaparamita. The event was a milestone for the development of Kadam Dharma in the capital city.

The last in a three-part series of extraordinary teachings given by Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong the General Spiritual Director of NKT-IKBU at the Fall Festival 2019. To listen to this teaching on how the lineage of understanding and experience is passed down in our tradition, we begin to realise how extremely fortunate we are!

This is the second in a three-part series of extraordinary teachings given by Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong the General Spiritual Director of NKT-IKBU at the Fall Festival 2019. Gen-la explains a teaching she received directly from Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche on what is oral instruction. How fortunate we are!

Developing and perfecting a Lamrim heart is the core practice of Kadampa Buddhism. On the weekend of Nov 29 – Dec 3, Gen-la Dekyong, the General Spiritual Director of NKT-IKBU, will give a special course explaining how we can accomplish this – a rare and precious opportunity to receive a commentary to a core text of our tradition from the General Spiritual Director.

What better way to take the special teachings of the 2019 Fall Festival deeper into your heart than to spend some time at the mother center in profound guided meditation retreat in January 2020? January is a special time at Manjushri KMC when the whole centre enters into retreat mode for four weeks of winter retreat and an extraordinary calm falls upon the environment.
