We will discover the extinct Kadampa school of Tibetan Buddhism and its important contribution to the flowering of Buddhist dharma. Discover the story of Atisha, a perfect and renowned guru who rekindled the flame of Buddhist teachings in Tibet.
Get ready for a journey of compassion, wisdom and transformative practices!
At the heart of the Kadampa tradition is the essential manual called Lamrim, which presents the step-by-step path to enlightenment. Learn how Atisha clearly and practically organized the teachings of the Buddha, allowing practitioners to integrate every word of every Buddhist sutra into their personal journey towards spiritual awakening. Explore the emphasis on training the mind (Lojong), developing compassion, and contemplating Bodhichitta. Also learn about the initiations and meditations of the Four Kadampa Deities (Shakyamuni Buddha, Tara, Avalokiteshvara and Achala), who play a key role in the Kadampa path.
Although the Kadampa lineage no longer exists as an independent school, its teachings have deeply permeated the other lineages of Tibetan Buddhism, including Nyingma, Kagyu, Sakya and Gelugpa. Discover how the Kadampa tradition continues to influence and enrich Tibetan Buddhism as a whole.
Before knowing who the Dalai Lama, Karmapa, Sakya Trizin and other leaders are, we need to know at least the training and philosophical and practical basis of Tibetan Buddhism - this series of videos is part of our playlist of the Free Course on Buddhism - not to be confused with the lectures from Monja Coen or meditation for anxiety. Also not to be confused with the New Kadampa Tradition, founded by Geshe Kelsang Gyatso
