Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche created the Teacher Training Program to ensure that Kadampa Teachers around the world will continually improve their correct understanding of Kadam Dharma, pure moral discipline, and teaching skills to become a pure example for others to learn from and follow.
The collection of qualified Kadampa statues is growing each year. During this International Kadampa Summer Festival, many practitioners will be able to bring home new statues of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche in metal, Prajnaparamita, and Amitayus. How wonderful!
On Sunday, Resident Teachers participating in the International Teacher Training Program took a break from their studies to contribute to the Summer Festival Preparations.

On the ground of equanimity pour the water of love and sow the seed of compassion. From these the harvest of bodhichitta will arise.
