Sep 22, 2024
KMC France, Nagarjuna KMC and KMC Seville have all hosted retreats following the Summer Festival.
Gen Kelsang Choma, Resident Teacher at KMC San Francisco, answers “How did you become a Buddhist nun?”
Many Kadampa centers offer opportunities to take part in volunteer visits – helping out with the work of the center in exchange for accommodation, meals and participation in the spiritual program.
Kadam Morten Clausen, Eastern US National Spiritual Director and Resident Teacher at KMC New York City, is guiding a post summer festival retreat on Clear Light of Bliss in the newly inaugurated Temple at KMC Spain in Málaga.
Gen Kelsang Demo, Midwestern US National Spiritual Director and the Resident Teacher at KMC Washington DC, answers “How can I acknowledge suffering without being overwhelmed by it?”
Now the Summer Festival 2022 has come to an end, this is a great opportunity to look back over the Diaries of the past week and review the teachings, videos and photo galleries.
On the final morning of the International Summer Festival 2022, everyone gathered in the Temple to watch the video presentation of the play of The Life of Buddha.
Here we share the talk Venerable Geshe-la gave at the end of the live presentation in 2009 – a precious teaching we will never tire of hearing.
Every time we take part in an International Festival we are reminded of the immense kindness of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche from whom everything meaningful arises.
From the very depths of our hearts we thank you Venerable Geshe-la. You are in every respect the source of all joy.
From the sheer joy of being able to gather again after such a long break through the amazing teachings and Festival experiences, for many people Summer Festival 2022 has been life-changing. Here we share some of their reactions.
Clear Light of Bliss is the very first book by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche published by Tharpa Publications. Since then Venerable Geshe-la has written 22 other books, which are now being translated into many different languages and distributed throughout the world.
