atisha kadampa meditation centre
The Atisha Centre was opened in October 1992 by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
Rinpoche, a world-renowned meditation master who has founded hundreds of centres
around the world as part of the New Kadampa Tradition - International Kadampa
Buddhist Union. He is the Spiritual Guide to thousands of people worldwide.
Since its opening Atisha KMC has continued to provide a place of peace for all
who visit, and is home to a spiritual community dedicated to achieving peace
through putting Buddha's teachings into practice. Everyone is welcome into this
peaceful and blessed environment. Visitors from all backgrounds come to find
rest and refuge from the difficulties of busy modern life, and draw inspiration
from spiritual friends. Ongoing Buddhist meditation classes and courses at
Atisha Centre offer the opportunity to discover our innate capacities for wisdom
and compassion. The Buddhist practices taught here are suitable for everyone.
Letting this special advice touch our hearts, we learn to become happy and to
lead meaningful lives that have the power to greatly benefit others.
