International Kadampa Fall Festival 2025

Dorje Shugden Empowerment and Developing Faith in Dorje Shugden with Gen-la Kelsang Dekyong

Great Protector of the Guru’s Words

There is nothing more precious than the words of our Spiritual Guide. This festival begins with the empowerment of Dorje Shugden as a powerful protection and blessing, so that we can understand the deep meanings of all the teachings of Sutra and Tantra that we have received from our Founder, and so we can care for them, ensuring they remain vibrant, alive and functioning for many generations to come. With a life of dedication, Gen-la Dekyong pays particularly close attention to our Guru’s words.

Gen-la will share special advice that she has personally directly received from Venerable Geshe-la on how for our mind and the meaning of the teachings to become one, requires our Guru’s blessings. She will also share how we can deepen our understanding of our Guru’s speech continually, and how through this, we ourselves can come to hold his ultimate correct views and intentions and attain the enlightened state of our Guru.
