Nordic Dharma Celebration 2024: “The Secret to a Longer, Happier Life”
25 Nov kl 08:30

Welcome to the Nordic Dharma Celebration 2024 in Copenhagen with Buddhist monk Gen Kelsang Dragpa, National Spiritual Director for the Nordic region.

This annual celebration is a wonderful opportunity to receive practical and inspiring teachings on Modern Buddhism coming from world renowned meditation master Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, and to enjoy peaceful meditations in the company of people from throughout the Nordic Region.

A Tantric Empowerment

This weekend gives us an ideal opportunity to draw close to Buddha Amitayus, Buddha of Long Life, and learn how to rely upon him through profound and effective meditations anyone can practice. The empowerment is a blissful guided meditation through which we make a direct connection with this sublime Buddha.

Profound teachings

We will receive instructions from the book ‘The New Eight Steps to Happiness’. This inspiring and practical book reveals trainings that will gradually free ourself from all obstacles and unhappiness, enjoy a long and happy life, and develop a profound ability to benefit others.

Open to everyone

The Nordic Dharma Celebration is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a spiritual holiday of teachings, meditations and empowerment, and to experience the transformative power of Kadam Dharma with our nordic community of spiritual practitioners.
