VENERABLE GESHE KELSANG GYATSO RINPOCHE
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche devoted his entire life to making the pure teachings of Buddha available in a modern form to people throughout the world.
Now Venerable Geshe-la's followers holding him at their hearts continue his work with auspicious projects in every region of the world.
Recently the blessing empowerment of Arya Tara was given at centers in different parts of the world. It is wonderful to think that Buddha Tara’s blessings are reaching people everywhere, transforming the minds of living beings.
Last weekend, the annual National Festival for Switzerland, Italy and Austria took place at Kailash International Retreat Centre with Gen-la Kelsang Khyenrab.
This month, some centers have organized inspiring public talks, allowing others to connect with wonderful Dharma teachings. KMC Barcelona, Sukhavati KBC in Querétaro and Mahamudra KBC in Uruguay are featured here.
Two wonderful occasions to celebrate! Two centers hosted their official openings: Ganden Ling KMC in Cornwall, and KMC Nottingham, with its new building at Gedling House along with its 30th anniversary celebration.
Over the weekend, there was a variety of vibrant courses held by Kadampa centres throughout the US. The courses taught wisdom and love giving people peace of mind and energy to live a meaningful life.
We should try to acquire a real taste for Dharma now, while we have the opportunity. As we familiarize ourselves with Dharma, we will discover many ways of finding pure happiness. We can experience happiness through meditation and wisdom, and by keeping moral discipline we can attain a special happiness that comes from a healthy body and mind. By enjoying the bliss of pure concentration, we can experience supreme and lasting happiness, no matter how difficult external conditions may be.
