The New Kadampa Tradition

Vajradhara center is a member of the New Kadampa Tradition – International Kadampa Buddhist Union (NKT-IKBU).

This is a Mahayana Buddhist tradition founded by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso that is derived from the Buddhist meditators and scholars Atisha and Je Tsongkhapa.

NKT-IKBU is an association of study and meditation centres dedicated to helping people everywhere find meaning and purpose in their lives, and to developing genuine inner peace and happiness.

Putting Buddha’s teachings into practice in the context of our family and work commitments, we discover unsurpassed methods to resolve daily difficulties and problems.

Rapidly growing, our Kadampa community is an international family, offering support, inspiration and encouragement for this joyful and profound spiritual path at centres around the world.
