The Kadampa Living Clarity Podcast shares practical wisdom and inspiring conversations to help you apply Buddhist teachings in everyday life. Through relatable insights and real-life experiences, it offers guidance on overcoming challenges, deepening your meditation practice, and developing lasting inner peace, clarity, and compassion.
Hundreds of Kadampas gathered together at our Mother Center to receive profound, uplifting and deeply optimistic teachings on the Power of Prayer from our General Spiritual Director, Gen-la Dekyong.
In early December, two meditation retreats took place in the mountains of Mexico and Switzerland. KMC Monterrey’s community contemplated teachings on emptiness during their annual Heart of Wisdom retreat, while Sangha from Italy and Switzerland drew closer to the meaning of Je Tsongkhapa’s Three Principal Aspects of the Path.
Manjushri Centre is magical in every season and in the short days of winter the Temple seemed especially warm and welcoming as people from the UK and beyond gathered together for a special weekend with Gen-la Dekyong.
This weekend’s course with General Spiritual Director – Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong and retreat with National Spiritual Director Kadam Bridget Heyes has been a “wonderful and magical” experience.
This weekend the Temple for World Peace at Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre is filled wall to wall with hundreds of people from the UK and beyond attending Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong’s course on emptiness.
The special weekend course with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong included everything – extraordinary teachings from Gen-la , guided meditations and retreat led by Gen-la Kunsang, a Sojong Ceremony for monks and nuns and a Pratimoksha Vow Ceremony.
Manjushri Kadampa Meditation Centre is thronging with hundreds of joyful people who have gathered for a special weekend with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong, General Spritual Director of NKT- IKBU and Resident Teacher at Manjushri KMC.
Last Sunday, the Temple at Manjushri KMC was packed with people from all over the region. Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong, General Spiritual Director of NKT-IKBU and Resident Teacher, gave a Public Talk explaining Kadam Dharma in a very powerful and accessible way.
Manjushri KMC is now closed to the public and preparations have begun in earnest for Summer Festival 2022.
After the busiest month ever, the Manjushri Cafe closed with the staff and volunteers celebrating with a party on the lawn. The next day they set about a deep clean of the cafe preparing it to transform into a Festival cafe.
Summer Festival 2022 will be hosted at the Mother Center in England, Manjushri KMC. Here we feature some volunteers from all across the UK who came to help prepare for the Festival.
