Worldwide

With the dangerous situation now developing in the world, at Venerable Geshe-la’s suggestion there will be a special Prayers for World Peace on Sunday February 27 at 10.30 am UK time with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong, General Spiritual Director of NKT-IKBU.

All Kadampa centers are dedicated to all living beings. They belong to them, remaining in their service for all time, and can never be taken over by individuals or organisations and used for other purposes. For this reason, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche says that these centers are very precious and that whenever we engage in an action to benefit a center we are in fact benefitting all living beings.

In preparation for the opening of the Sixth Kadampa Temple for World Peace in Málaga Spain on June 10, KMC Spain has arranged a special online course celebrating the five existing World Peace Temples. The five Gen-las are teaching the five forces. Here we feature the first teaching given by Gen-la Dekyong. On March 5, the second teaching with Gen-la Khyenrab will be broadcast.

During February, many Kadampa centers organise pujas, retreats, teachings and empowerments of Buddha Amitayus, the Buddha of long life, wisdom and merit.

Just as the January retreat season finishes, a full program of national and regional Dharma Celebrations arises. Follow the links below to find out more about Dharma Celebrations in February.

For the first time in Kadampa history, the five Gen-las will come together online to teach a course on the five forces, each teaching representing one of the five Temples already completed. This is a perfect preparation for the grand opening of the sixth Kadampa Temple for World Peace in Málaga on June 10, 2022.

The beginning of February marks a special time when Kadampa centers around the world emphasise the practice of Buddha Amitayus, the Buddha of Long life, wisdom and merit.
