Ontario Dharma Celebration
September 9th - 11th, 2011
Buddha Dorje Shugden Blessing Empowerment
with National Spiritual Director, Gen Kelsang Thekchen
Kadampa Meditation Centre Canada, Toronto
Wisdom Buddha Dorje Shugden is known as the Dharma Protector. He protects the teachings and lineage of the great Buddhist Master, Je Tsongkhapa, and protects our spiritual insights so they can grow into stable Dharma Jewels. If we rely on Buddha Dojre Shugden wih faith, our wisdom & compassion will naturally grow and we will soon have the capacity to benefit all living beings without exception.
The Ontario Dharma Celebration is a special opportunity for students of Kadampa Centres across Ontario to come together to enjoy Kadam Dharma while also taking a spiritual holiday at the beautiful Kadampa Buddhist Temple in downtown Toronto.
