Karma Guen Buddhist Center is very happy to announce a great program for this years spring course. From end of May until June 7th we have the honor of welcoming H.H. 17th Gyalwa Karmapa Thaye Dorje, the 2nd Beru Kyense Rinpoche, the 4th Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche and Lama Ole Nydahl at Karma Guen together with many eminent friends from around the world.

17th Karmapa, Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche and Beru Khyentse Rinpoche
In Summer 2008 we had asked Gyalwa Karmpa for giving the Kalachakra empowerment at Karma Guen 2009. H.H. recommended us to contact Beru Kyense Rinpoche as he has a very good transmission of this empowerment. We are very happy that Beru Kyense Rinpoche accepted and agreed to give this empowerment. Since the Kalachakra Stupa was build in 1994, now 15 years ago, we find it a good way to celebrate that.

Followed the 12 year old Jamgon Kongtrul Rinpoche (son of Beru Kyense Rinpoche) will give the Buddha of Limitless Light (Amithaba) empowerment. And for the 21st time Lama Ole Nydahl will guide the 5 days Phowa course at Karma Guen.
On June 3rd, Gyalwa Karmapa will give the Gyalwa Gyamso empowerment, and then for the first time in Karma Guen Gyalwa Karmapa will give 3 days of teachings. H.H. has chosen the text by Shanti Deva for his teachings. On Sunday June 17th Gyalwa Karmapa will give the White Liberatrice (Tara) empowerment at the stupa in Benalmadena.
