Cherish Your Centre, Cherish all Living Beings
Saturday 10.00 am to 4.00 pm
Sunday 10.00 am to 2.00 pm
Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche says that Kadampa centers do not belong to any individuals but to all living beings. And legal and constitutional safeguards are in place to ensure this will always be the
case.
This means the centers are very precious. Venerable Geshe-la says that whenever we engage in an action to benefit our center we are in fact benefitting all living beings. Through such actions we accumulate vast merit, purify negativities, and receive powerful blessings.
So how can you help – each year we shall be arranging serval days set aside especially for cherishing our centre, here we can give the centre a much needed deep clean, this is a social event for the community and lunch will be supplied. No experience is needed just a good heart.

The Life Story of Buddha is a special dramatic presentation, inspired by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche and his teachings, that visually captures the essence of Buddha Shakyamuni’s life. Based on the twelve principal deeds of Buddha, it reveals in a clear and moving way the essential characteristics of a spiritual life.
By watching this play again and again, we can discover the deeper levels of the spiritual message of Buddha’s life. This play will be a source of constant encouragement and inspiration in our lives. Through it we can encourage ourself to take the real meaning of our human life, and learn how we accomplish this meaning by attaining the supreme happiness of enlightenment.
