project: Centers

KMC Canada was involved in two events for public benefit this past weekend!  During Doors Open Toronto 2023, an event organized by the City of Toronto, 450 people visited our temple. They enjoyed a 10 min guided meditation and the Liberating Prayer.  They were also  introduced to the different Buddhas and the sound of their mantras, to the history of the building, the significance of the Buddhist symbols, and shown the two cabinets of Buddha’s teachings and their commentaries, the Kangyur and the Tengyur.

Two years ago Mahabodi KMC, São Paulo acquired new premises for their city center. Since that time many volunteers have been working on renovating the building. It is in part funded by a project called “Mahabodhi Último – Together for construction”, which is a weekly bazaar held on the premises.
This weekend the center organised their first event in the new building to celebrate NKT Day. A new series of t-shirts with the theme “Dress for world peace” was unveiled bearing quotes from Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche and all proceeds from their sale will be donated to the renovation project.”

An exciting new development for KMC Barcelona, who are preparing to open a new urban temple in 2023.
With the new space opening soon on Calle Berlín 97, in the Les Corts neighbourhood, will be able to accommodate many more people for their events in the city.
