On 4 June at Manjushri KMC, the Mother Centre, we celebrated Turning the Wheel of Dharma Day and the birthday of our precious Spiritual Guide, Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche.

On this special day, we remember Buddha’s immeasurable kindness in first teaching the Dharma in this world, opening the door to lasting peace and happiness for all living beings.

With deep gratitude, we also celebrate the extraordinary kindness of Venerable Geshe-la, whose pure intention and tireless efforts have made these precious teachings available to countless people throughout the world.

May we repay this kindness by putting his teachings into practice, keeping a good heart, and helping Kadam Dharma flourish for generations to come.

Thank you, Venerable Geshe-la. ❤️

DAY 6 ~ DESTINATION COMPASSION
At the end of the retreat Gen-la Sangden skillfully reminds us about what Geshe-la called very good advice. Through our view, our friends and family can be like treasure for us, enabling us to develop a wealth of love and compassion.

She also left us with a wisdom contemplation: when the causes and conditions come together a Festival appears like a rainbow. May we create all the causes for it to appear again at Summer and Fall Festivals.
