Nov 22, 2024
The World Peace Temple in Cabreúva is undergoing a profound and inspiring transformation! Dedicated volunteers from various parts of Brazil and the world are already working tirelessly on essential tasks to prepare the site for the International Fall Festival (October 25th to November 1st), where we expect to welcome around 2,500 participants.
Blessing empowerments of Buddha Vajrapani took place in the last few weeks. Those who attended KMC Metz, KMC Montpellier and Odiyana KMC in Cheshire had a great opportunity to connect with this Deity to strengthen their spiritual power.
National Spiritual Directors traveled to give special courses at KMC Texas, KMC Merida, KMC Lille (France), and Avalokiteshvara KBC in Huelva.
Their teachings offered many wonderful and practical examples of how to practice Dharma in our daily lives.
The 21st of September saw the opening ceremony of KMC Girona’s new urban Temple on Ronda Ferran Puig, a relaxed area close to the train station, parks, and the city’s historical areas. This blessed ceremony was led by Gen Lochani, Resident Teacher of KMC Barcelona.
The International Fall Festival is just two weeks away! Here is some practical information to answer some common questions and to help you prepare for your trip.
The Collected Works of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche is at the heart of all activities and practices in NKT centers around the world. Currently, the full collection has been translated into only four languages: English, Spanish, French, and German. Tharpa Sweden is now benefiting their community with a second book launch this year – the sixth book translated into Swedish – The New Meditation Handbook.

The recent visit of the National Spiritual Director of France, Gen Eupamé, was warmly received in Lyon, France. Two talks were organized: Overcoming Your Fears in Croix-Rousse and Meditating with Joy and Efficiency at Lamrim KBC. In Canada, another successful visiting teacher course took place at KMC Montreal, where Marie-Claude Martel from KMC Quebec taught on Investing in Inner Wealth.
Some Kadampa centers organized open-air meditations in September, taking advantage of the good weather.

From September 20th to 22nd, Gen Ananda, NKT National Spiritual Director for Germany and the Resident Teacher of Tharpaland KMC in Berlin, was the special guest Teacher at Kadampa Meditation Center Austria in Vienna. He taught a wonderful and practical course called “How We Can Really Enjoy Our Life – The Kadampa Way of Life”.
