Join Us for a Transformative Day with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong

In a world where stress, anxiety, and uncertainty seem constant, finding peace and clarity can feel out of reach. But there is a way to discover real happiness and inner calm—through the wisdom of modern Buddhism.

We’re thrilled to invite you to an uplifting day with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong, an internationally renowned Buddhist teacher and General Spiritual Director of the New Kadampa Tradition.

Gen-la has been a disciple of Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche for nearly 40 years and holds the lineages of his blessings in her heart. She is recognised as a fully qualified Teacher of Sutra and Tantra, and in particular is qualified to bestow the blessings of the Highest Yoga Tantra practices of Heruka and Vajrayogini. She is an inspiring example of a modern Kadampa disciple who relies sincerely upon her Spiritual Guide in all her actions. Gen-la is greatly respected for the power and sincerity of her teachings and the warmth of her personality.
