Introducing a mini series of three video clips from a teaching by Gen-la Khyenrab, retired General Spiritual Director of NKT. Over the next three posts you can enjoy some highlights of Gen-la teaching about wisdom.
In August 1997 Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche opened the first Kadampa Temple for World Peace at Manjushri Centre in the UK. In this video we listen to the talk he gave at that time launching the International Temples Project and see the development of other Temples since then.
For many Kadampa centers, January is a retreat month and retreats of various levels and duration are organised at centers around the world. Here is a small selection:
Kadampa centers around the world have arranged special events over the holiday period. Here is a small selection.
Earlier this year a group of fortunate Kadampa students joined Gen-la Khyenrab at Manjushri KMC to train for six months on the Intensive Teacher Training Program . We caught up with a few of them who are now teaching at centers around the world as Resident Teachers or auxiliary Teachers.
Today, International Temples Day, we celebrate in particular the work of the ITP in making the precious books of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche available throughout the world.
Sunday, the eighth day of the month is Tara Day. On this day we recite Liberation from Sorrow, Prayers and Requests to the 21 Taras and deeply request the Blessed Mother to bestow her blessings on all living beings so that all sickness and other obstacles are quickly removed.
Through the great kindness of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyato Rinpoche, November offers another banquet of Kadam Dharma around the world with seven national/regional Dharma Celebrations given by the National Spiritual Directors.
The International Fall Festival has now finished but for thousands of people around the world, November offers an opportunity to enjoy National Festivals.
January retreat season is fast approaching and today we begin a round up of upcoming retreats. Here we feature two six-week mountain retreats, one at IKRC Grand Canyon with Gen-la Jampa and one at Kailash IRC with Gen Devi.
