Booking for online attendance at the 2022 International Summer Festival is now open. You can book now on the booking page on the Festival website.
This Saturday, June 4, is Dharmachakra Day, on which we celebrate Buddha’s turning the Wheel of Dharma in this world. This extremely auspicious day is also the birthday of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, who is 91 this year.
The experience of an International Festival is greatly enhanced if we can spend some time afterwards in retreat improving our understanding of the teachings and taking their meaning to heart.

As we count down the final weeks before the new Temple in Málaga opens and the 2022 Spring Festival begins, we follow the work of all the kind artists, builders and volunteers who are making everything ready for us.
Since April 1, there are three possibilities for visitors to enter Spain:
– COVD vaccination certificate
– Certificate of recovery from COVID
– Negative PCR result
Through his extraordinary collection of books Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche touches the hearts of thousands of people around the world, helping everyone find a new and meaningful direction to their lives.
The day before the Spring Festival begins, there will be an ordination ceremony at which over 20 people will receive ordination. All ordained sangha are welcome to attend.
Last weekend, Kadampas around the world celebrated Buddha’s Enlightenment Day with joyful gatherings and devoted practice. Nyungnay retreats to purify negative karma, teachings, empowerments and courses, vegetarian feasts, and activities for young people were just some of the ways practitioners marked the anniversary of Buddha Shakyamuni demonstrating the attainment of enlightenment.
At Manjushri KMC, the mother center of NKT, Buddha’s Enlightenment Day was celebrated this year with a nyungnay fasting retreat and an Offering to the Spiritual Guide puja. To the delight of everyone, a beautiful, warm spring day morphed into a magical full moon evening. Pure magic!
