Transmitting Buddhist sacred art and ritual skills in Arizona
In Kadampa communities worldwide, the tradition of transmitting Buddhist sacred art and ritual skills thrives, as new practitioners embark on learning to create Buddha images and craft traditional Buddhist tormas.
In Arizona, twenty-two budding artists at Kadampa Meditation Center in Tucson experienced the profound process of drawing Buddha images, witnessing the sacred form manifest before them in the workshop on Sacred Art.
Meanwhile, in Madrid, a group of 21 students hailing from various parts of Spain gathered under the guidance of Kelsang Wangdu at KMC Madrid-La Sierra for a full weekend torma workshop.
Immersed in the serene surroundings, they delved into the intricacies of crafting tormas, deepening their connection to Buddhist rituals and traditions.
These endeavors signify the enduring commitment of Kadampa practitioners to preserving and passing on these sacred arts for generations to come.
