Modern Kadampa Buddhism
Ancient Wisdom, Modern Times

Our teachings trace from an unbroken lineage to the founder of Buddhism, Buddha Shakyamuni. Buddhist master Atisha founded Kadampa Buddhism in the 11th Century. The teachings were then passed in a succession of realized masters to our current founder Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche. He created an international Kadampa Buddhist Union of over 1000 Centers and branches that perfectly present the meaning of Buddha's teachings for the people of the modern world. These teachings are relevant for everyone, Buddhist and non-Buddhist in order to solve our inner problems and establish lasting inner peace and happiness. 

"Without inner peace, outer peace is impossible."

Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
