About KMC Victoria
Since the 1990's, Bodhichitta Buddhist Centre (now dba Kadampa Meditation Centre Victoria) has offered meditation classes at various locations around Victoria and Vancouver Island and the surrounding islands. We also offer day courses, empowerments and meditation retreats. Our Resident Teacher since 2007 is Gen Kelsang Zopa.
The Centre is a peaceful oasis in the heart of Victoria where anyone can learn correct methods to experience lasting happiness and well-being. Free lunchtime meditation is offered on weekdays for those living and working in the surrounding area.
KMC Victoria is a registered charity, run by volunteers. All proceeds from our classes and special events go to the spiritual activities at the Centre and to the International Temples Project for World Peace. We are part of a network, called the New Kadampa Tradition (NKT) which has over 1,400 Centres in over 45 countries.
Kadampas are those who take Buddha’s teaching as personal advice and put it into practice. This modern presentation from the Kadampa lineage is particularly suited to people of the modern world to help solve our modern-day problems such as stress, anxiety, anger, and ill-health.
By supporting KMC Victoria, you are contributing to the development of peace in this world.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME!!
