Prepare your mind for deeper spiritual practice and more stable understanding
Festivals are a spiritual holiday like no other. They give us an opportunity to step away from the busyness of daily life and to make time for our inner spiritual development for a concentrated period of time. In this way we accelerate our meditation practice, deepening our understanding and experience in a relatively short period of time.
The Summer Festival is set in the beautiful location of the Lake District in the UK with many nearby visitor attractions, so it is also possible to combine a spiritual Festival with a family holiday.
Gather together with Kadampa Buddhist practitioners from all around the Southwest United States in a celebration of faith, wisdom and compassion.
Meet new Sangha friends from other Centers, discuss Dharma, listen, contemplate and meditate on profound teachings, and relax within the peaceful environment of the International Kadampa Retreat Center Grand Canyon.
Everyone is welcome to sign up for this event!

This Wednesday afternoon practice involves extensive prayers to our Dharma Protector, Dorje Shugden. A Dharma Protector is anemanation of a Buddha or Bodhisattva whose main functions are to avert the inner and outer obstacles that prevent practitioners from attaining spiritual realizations and to arrange all the necessary conditions for their practice.
This puja lasts for 3 1/2 hrs and will be dedicated to the swift and successful construction of our new space in the Mueller neighborhood.
Please join us for some or all of the prayers.

The Stages of the Path to Enlightenment meditations (or Lamrim in Tibetan) are a condensation of all Buddha's teachings that is easy to understand and put into practice, enabling us to gain deep meditative insights of every step of our journey to the supreme permanent peace of mind that is enlightenment.
Through employing the very special practical presentation of these meditations by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche in his book The Mirror of Dharma with Additions, we will definitely accomplish the real meaning of our precious human life.
