WHAT IS MODERN BUDDHISM?
What distinguishes our teachings?
All our Courses and Retreats are taught by trained and qualified teachers, who teach in accordance with the New Kadampa Tradition, whose teachings can be traced back all the way to Buddha Shakyamuni.
With qualified meditation teachers guiding and inspiring us we have the opportunity to meet Buddha’s teachings and or learn to integrate them into our busy modern lives.
Free eBooks Modern Buddhism
These eBooks are perfectly suited for inspiring those seeking solutions within Buddhism to problems of everyday life, as well as for encouraging practitioners of all faiths to deepen their understanding and practice of the spiritual path.
