After four years’ work Tharpa Sweden was finally able to publish “How to Understand the Mind” in Swedish. This is the fifth book of Venerable Geshe-la’s to be published in Swedish and we celebrated this milestone with a book launch where everyone received their own copy of the book.
Every year during the International Kadampa Festivals, attendees from across the globe can discover a wide range of distinctive items that enhance their daily practice, provide meaningful gifts for others, and acquire essential ritual objects for their center.
For the occasion of Book’s Day and Saint Jordi’s festivities, KMC Granada had the opportunity to participate in the local book fairs for one week, showcasing the works of our precious Spiritual Guide, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. Also they’ve organised a public talk which was very well attended.
In October 2022 Tharpa Spain started a book talk campaign to promote the book The Clear Light of Bliss as it was the last book of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche’s collection to be translated into Spanish.
