Asian Festival in December 2024
Nov 25, 2024
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.
Yesterday 160 people attended a very powerful public Talk with Gen-la Jampa at Teatro Regina in Buenos Aires. A perfect prelude to the Argentina National Festival with Gen-la starting this Friday.

Over 160 people gathered at Templo Sintra for the 2019 Portugal Dharma Celebration with Guen Kelsang Chokga. The day dawned cloudy, rainy and humid, but we bathed in the sun of the radiant smiles of the people assembling for the event. These happy faces were to be a defining feature of the entire weekend. It was such a joyful occasion.
