In recent weeks some Kadampa Centers have opened their doors in a variety of ways to allow many people to find and get to know the Kadampa Tradition.
Here Madhyamaka KMC with its annual Fair, Nargarjuna KMC with its Summer Fete and, in Buenos Aires, Nagarjuna KBC with its Open Doors.
The Nagarjuna’s Middle Way silent retreat at KMC New York with Resident Teacher, Gen Samten Kelsang, brought over 150 people from all over the US and Canada.
Before the International Summer Festival, Kadampa Centers are organizing activities to accumulate much merit and to allow Kadam Dharma to flourish in the heart. Here are the events arranged by the Los Angeles, Phoenix and Hong Kong Centers.
Read about some other recent activities organized by Kadampa Centers around the world.
Here: KMC Texas, KMC Hong Kong, KMC Chicago, Atisha KMC (UK), Heruka KMC (UK) and Madyhamaka KMC.
At the end of June, wonderful talks with guest Teachers were organized at several NKT Kadampa Centers. Buddhist monks visited Uma KMC in the UK, KMC Trois-Rivières in Canada, and KMC Metz in France. These talks, focusing on the preciousness of our human life and the concept of impermanence, guided participants to a better understanding of Buddhist wisdom.
Just as thunder spontaneously manifests from the sky when the necessary atmospheric conditions occur, so Buddhas spontaneously give perfect teachings whenever their unobstructed wisdom and compassion meet with receptive disciples.
