Kagyu Monlam in Dhagpo Kundreul Ling

14 to 20 December 2022

Invitation

We are pleased to invite you to the Kagyu Monlam 2022 in Dhagpo Kundreul Ling, which will take place from 14 to 20 December. We will join the prayers of the monks of Thaye Dorje, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwa Karmapa, from Rumtek, India.

The recitation of the Kagyu Monlam prayers will be held in the Karmapa temple at Le Bost in the presence of Gendun Rinchen and the monastic and lay community of Dhagpo Kundreul Ling. The Kagyu Monlam is a precious moment when we can practice in unison, monastics and laypeople, in Asia and in the West, gathered around Karmapa.

May this opportunity to connect with the deep aspirations of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas be a source of great benefit to the world and all beings.
