We are a Modern Kadampa Buddhist centre in Kensington. We belong to the New Kadampa Tradition – International Kadampa Buddhist Union and are one of over a thousand centres worldwide founded by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. Volunteers run the centre. We offer drop-in meditation classes, group prayers, retreats, and day and weekend courses that present the Buddha's ancient wisdom in a way suited to modern life. Meditation helps you unwind, relax, let go of worry and gradually replace negative states of mind with positive, peaceful ones. Our classes suit everyone, from people looking for simple relaxation to those who want lasting inner peace. We also offer classes in Okotoks and online, plus deeper study through the Foundation Program and Teacher Training Program.
